Here are the last of our projects from our recent trip to the craft store.
I saw the idea for this Thanksgiving centerpiece in the October issue of Romantic Homes. I have a weakness for anything mossy. :0)
The only things I purchased was the moss and mini pumpkins. The tin bucket was from our prairie day adventure. The pinecones, pine needles, sticks and acorns were collected during a walk in our neighbohood this past Monday!
I can't remember where I saw the idea for this pumpkin runner but it was probably Martha. ;0) Space your mini pumpkins out evenly, wrap wire ribbon in and around them and lay a beaded garland on top. Nice and easy!
I have seen so many lovely Thanksgiving banners lately, so I decided to make one too! I used ribbon to hang it from the mantle.
A nice reminder to.....
Thanks for looking!
Great idea for the mantle! Your home is lovely! Thanks for sharing!

Just beautiful!
ReplyDeleteKelli, I have to tell you that your mantle is just gorgeous. I wish mine looked like that! I love the wonderful banner you made and the runner and fall container are just beautiful. I think it makes it even more special that you and the girls found a lot of the contents on your walk:) You are soooo talented!
ReplyDeleteCrafty Kelli! How pretty everything looks!
ReplyDeleteI love the banner!! All of your crafts turned out fabulously!
ReplyDeleteKelli, very nice!!! What is the banner made up of?
ReplyDeleteI also love all your decorations. Like the tin bucket...you can put it outside too.
ReplyDeleteI love your crafts! Our Thanksgiving was last month but I'll keep these ideas for next year!
ReplyDeleteEverything is so pretty. Thanksgiving is barely a blip on the radar in Canada, but it seems to be a big holiday in the USA. I'm enjoying the pictures of blogger's decorations and preparations.
ReplyDeleteYou have lovely ideas for the season and I enjoy your blog and look forward to your next post. I enjoyed your prarie days to.
ReplyDeleteEverything you've done is beautiful! I love your mantle.
ReplyDeleteMarci, the banner is made of scrapbook paper (the fall leaf paper) and beige cardstock (the smaller ovals). I printed the letters right onto the cardstock, then cut slits on the sides and theaded the ribbon right through them.
