I mentioned that we got our first pumpkin last week.
I set it on a doily and the cake plate Linda gave me a few weeks ago.
And set it between two candles for a quick and easy centerpiece!
Candle light makes things more cozy this time of year.
Thank you for taking a look!
Hi Kelli that is just beautiful you are so incredibly talented with your decorating..Have a great week.
ReplyDeleteSimple and cute!
ReplyDeleteQuick and cute! I love having a few pumpkins out this time of year.
ReplyDeleteI really like your new header...and your decorations are so nice. We have pumpkin growing in our garden...Summit is growing his very own this year at our house. Hugs, mary
ReplyDeleteThis is the cutest centre piece! And what a lovely way to greet the season!
ReplyDeleteWhat a wonderful job you did with your center piece. It is so cozy and warm...you have inspired me! Dianntha
ReplyDeleteThat pumpkin made a beautiful Center piece, it was so simple May I borrow that idea , you are so talent. I glad to know I have super talent friends.
ReplyDeleteKelli,
ReplyDeleteI just love decorating with pumpkins and gourds. I usually get a few big pumpkins and put them on the fireplace hearth. I never carve them on Halloween. :)
I'm sorry to say that I accidentally put your last comment as spam and it went far away to the netherworld. I tried to retrieve it but could not figure out how. I am hoping it was just one comment and that you aren't "spam" forever. Oh gosh.

Kelli,
ReplyDeleteThat is a lovely centerpiece. It gives your table a cozy feeling.
Blessings,

I love how it all looks! I'm just not ready to begin turning things into fall...at least not until the 22nd :)
ReplyDeleteI need to have leaves falling, wind blowing, and early darkness to make me start thinking of fall.
I lit a candle while I cleaned yesterday because that is what you do....I thoroughly enjoyed it. Thanks so much for such great advice. You dont know how much we enjoy it.
ReplyDeleteLove it! And I love that tablecloth, too! :-) May I ask if it is cloth or vinyl and where you got it?
ReplyDeleteThe pumpkin looks so perfect. You made it look so lovely sitting on your table.
ReplyDelete:)

Kelli! Great minds think alike! My pumpkin is sitting on my cake plate too! Of course when I bought yours, I had to get one for me too!
ReplyDeleteGlad to see you enjoying it!
Blessings
Linda
Just lovely! You can't out do Mother Nature for decorations!
ReplyDeleteHi Kelly! I wanted to tell you that I went to the Dollar Store and bought a couple of those candles. You are so right.....they smell wonderful. Thanks for telling where you got them.
ReplyDeleteHope you and your family have a good Tuesday. :-)

I really like the table linen and the pumpkin is just perfect. Great idea.
ReplyDeleteHi Kelli,
ReplyDeleteLove the look! I'm slowly getting there. Last night I tried to "force" fall with a big pot of soup and grilled cheese, but alas, the temperature was still over 80 when I looked! I'm off to make some cards:)
Pretty centerpiece Kelli!
ReplyDeleteThe pumpkin is the perfect addition to the beautiful cake plate and the candles are the icing on the cake.
ReplyDeleteThat looks beautiful. It's so simple yet elegant!
ReplyDeletevery simple and beautiful! I love it =)
ReplyDeleteits beautiful and simple..
ReplyDeleteIt's simple and elegant. I love having a candle light dinner with just the family.
ReplyDeleteVery pretty. I have the same cake plate. I love the candles glowing.
ReplyDeleteVery beautiful centerpiece for your diningroom table, love it, I'll have to remember that when they start selling pumpins around here:)
ReplyDeleteHave a great day!

Hi Kelli. I've enjoyed catching up on your blog. The pumpkin and other decorations in your home are great for fall. I like the new fall look of your blog also.
ReplyDeleteThis was beautiful! While our mornings are cold the afternoons are still in the 80's so I almost feel as if I'm rushing Fall. I have found myself many times while looking through my meager Fall decor "What would Kelli do?" You inspire me!
ReplyDeleteTJ
Love the pumpkin! My husband and I were talking yesterday about getting some in a few days. I love this time of year...just wish the weather would cooperate with my yearning for fall! Enjoyed the pictures.
ReplyDeleteI love pumpkins, the warm glow of candles is so pretty as well.
ReplyDeleteI like to display some of my knitted pumpkins every year :)
We have 13 pumpkins just waiting to be picked--your idea was simple and sweet. julie
ReplyDeleteI am ready for fall but I don't think Texas is as far as the weather is concerned. :-)
ReplyDeleteHave you been the Hobby Lobby or Cracker Barrel lately? They have all their fall and Christmas stuff out. It's like Heaven on earth when I walk into places like that. I can't get dragged out of there until I look at everything...lol.
When you are done with your pumpkins do you make pumpkin pie or bake the seeds or what do you do with it?
Hope you are having a good week!
Hugs,
Dawn
I better grab my pink cake plates and turn them into a harvest center piece. Thanks fo rthe inspiration. Wendy
ReplyDeleteI like it , its so warm and cozy !
ReplyDeleteLove it :)
Stephanie
Your pictures are just beautiful on your blog!! You decorate so simply but it is just gorgeous..I think that is quite a talent...Sandy
ReplyDeleteVery pretty!
ReplyDeleteDiane
Simple, yet so elegant. I love it! :)
ReplyDeleteYou've made me think I can do this too. We'll see.. lol
Kelli, it's beautiful, especially the candles in the dim light. I am always amazed you have wonderful ideas and share them.
ReplyDeleteHave a wonderful evening!
Kathi :)
Kelli--I have been in Michael's countless times too--I can not beleive I have never seen the oils---LOL:) I will let you know if I find them, when I go there.
ReplyDeleteYour pumpkin is perfect--and the candle light is always so pretty:)

This is so pretty, Kelli!
ReplyDeleteI was at Wal Mart today and saw they had pumpkins and gourds on sale. Made me so excited for Fall!
A question..is that your house in your blog header?
That is such a cute idea! I have a few fake pumpkins, but nothing beats the real deal. You are right about candles, they instantly add "cozy" to a room.
ReplyDeleteThis is SO gorgeous. I just love decorating for fall! Thanks for all the great tips!
ReplyDeleteBy the way - I nominated your blog for an award! Get the details here: http://angiesfifth.blogspot.com/2008/09/ive-received-i-love-your-blog-award.html
Hello Kelli, your pumpkin centerpiece looks great! I have pumpkins to pick so I am getting really excited to start decorating for fall.
ReplyDeleteLove, Ann
Very cute but elegant also.
ReplyDeleteThis is so pretty Kelli. Simplicity is so often the nicest way to go, I think. Especially with natural things.
