A little more Autumn Decor and our upcoming move - Show and Tell Friday

 
 
Welcome to Show and Tell Friday!
 
 

I originally had some faux Autumn leaves in this centerpiece and I just wasn't feeling it.  They were very orange and although I love orange...I wear orange a lot, I just don't like how it looks in my home...

 
So I took out all those faux leaves and added white pumpkins and now I love it! 

 
Sometimes I just have to fiddle with things a little bit until I like it. 


 
Good news...we are moving next week but not far! We are just moving to another building in the same complex.  I live in a huge complex with over 800 units. The new building hasn't had any of the numerous issues I've had with this building.  The floor plan is just like we have now except it's a mirror image of ours and we will have a gas fireplace! We're on the ground floor now and only the units on the 2nd and 3rd floor have the fireplaces! Perfect timing...I'll have a mantle to decorate for Christmas!

    Hi Cinsy! I don't have anything to share in your party but I'm so thrilled for you to find another place and a mantel! Sorry the rents are so over the top in California. I'll pray for an easy and fast move for you!
    Be a sweetie,
    Shelia :)

    We are enjoying a fire in our fireplace this evening. It's cold here!
    Glad you have the move worked out. Sounds like the new apartment will be much better. A mantel in your future is an added bonus. '-)

    So glad that you found a great apartment in the same complex. I have been going on line and looking at places up there and they are really expensive. I think it would be cheaper to stay in my own home.
    Thanks so much for hosting your great party. Good luck moving.
    Mary
    PS If I come up for the holidays maybe we can met up. Would love to meet you in person.
