  1. How beautiful! I just love Fall decorating. It's so much nicer to look at your pictures than the ones we have been seeing on the news of our post hurricane area. *sigh*

    Thank you for adding a bright spot to the day.

    Hi Kelli! I was looking forward to seeing how you were going to decorate for autumn. You didn't disappoint me. The pictures of your kitchen are beautiful. Your family is lucky to have such a talented wife and mother.

    Have a wonderful and blessed day. :-) Debbi

    Oh how PRETTY Kelli. I really must try to do something similar in my kitchen this year to ring the changes a little. I just love those little acorn salt and pepper shakers too. You have a real flair for decorating.

  5. I love your decorating. You seem to get such lovely "Fall" decor over in America. Over here in England it is unheard of and nobody would think of decorating for "Autumn". You have some wonderful ideas on here.

    Hi Kelli,

    Love the fall look in your kitchen! The wall pocket is is cute and that squirrel s&p shaker is adorable!! I haven't been in a Cracker Barrell yet, but everyone always finds such cute things there (there's one about 20 minutes from me but my DH never wants to eat there?).

  15. Hi Kelli - Your kitchen looks so nice. Cozy and home-y. Wish I lived close enough to stop by and see it 'for real'! I especially love that little squirrel salt and pepper. Thanks for sharing your home with us. ~Adrienne~

  16. The little squirrel holding his acorns is so cute.

    I haven't pulled out my fall decor yet. I had the ingenious idea to store them in a empty suit case in our storage closet back in the Spring.

    Now I don't feel like unpacking the closet to get to the suitcase with is strategiaclly placed way in the back of the closet.

    It seemed like such a good idea back then.

    So I'll just stop in to enjoy your pictures for a few more weeks. Thanks for sharing.

  17. This is beautiful Kelli! I got my decorating done, only to find that my kids are enjoying tearing apart my centerpiece and bouquet. Oh well... the 90 degree weather is making it hard to feel Fall yet. I'll have some time to hunt down the gourds and flowers and replace them before it gets cool.

    Thanks for sharing! I love how big your kitchen is

    Your kitchen looks so fallish. I just love your decorations. I'm slowly getting mine out. The squirrels are so cute. I've got apples in my kitchen year round so it's easy to make it look fallish with a few extra things.
    Happy decorating!

    I LOVE autumn but must be frugal w/ decor. You inspire me to change w/ the seasons. Any frugal ideas? I don't want my home to look "cheap" just cozy. Yours looks absolutely fantastic.

  72. I love all the autumn pizzazz you created all around your kitchen! It made my eyes light up, so pretty! I love corn candy this time of the year and especially like the way the ribbon dresses it up. My sis-in-law had her corn candy mixed with peanuts this year and I swear it was like having a Payday candy bar.

  93. Are those crab apples in the last photo? We have a tree in the front yard in Memphis that is just loaded with fruit.
    The towel bar on the end of the cabinet gives me an idea for doing the same in the new house. I'll be doing some Autumn decorating myself this week even though most of my stuff is somewhere else. I'll share what little I do next week.
