Why is it when fall arrives we are ready to redecorate the entire house? Really loving these ideas to bring the rustic tone of fall inside for entertaining...or perhaps even decorating tables for an autumn wedding...
Perfectly easy decorating and centerpieces with gourds and pumpkins {via Country Living}
Flocked leaf place mats from Pottery Barn
Loving the rustic look of the urn, flowers and gourds {via Toast and Tables}
Pumpkins are such a great budget and {DIY} decor items...they can be candle holders...
...or even serve as a flower vessel {via Country Living}
The perfect fall plate from Pottery Barn
How charming for outside on a porch or inside on a table {via Country Living}
A unique way to display table numbers {via Martha Stewart}
Fall foliage make a perfect centerpiece {via Country Living}
Not a typical fall favorite...but how stylish is this table from the iconic Monique Lhuillier. The carved out birch log holding the flowers is incredible! {via House Beautiful}
























My old roommate had a fall wedding, and we had so much fun "making" the pumpkins for the table centerpieces. Pumpkins are a fun, and amazingly economical, alternative to traditional centerpiece arrangements. We didn't have to worry about table numbers like the MSW version, but we did drill holes in them so that candlelight could flicker through. Well, actually, the boys drilled the holes and the girls cleaned out the pumpkins, but it was a good time for one and all. :)
My photo certainly doesn't do it justice...

Oh! That first photo of the pumpkins under glass is amazing- what a great idea! I'm always looking for ways to convey that warm fall harvest feel but that don't go overboard in a cheesy cornucopia way...and this is perfect!

I am TOTALLY smitten with Miss Monique. The white peacock always has me at hello...I wish it wasn't 10 billion degrees here in L.A. because I am sooo ready for fall...
