Make Your Own

Rarely do I just go buy a accessory for my home. I much more prefer to make my own. I am not crafty, I just simply put a few things together. Here I added pine cones from the yard to a glass container, then tied a ribbon around it.

I put this basket together for my coffee table in the living room . . .

and this for my den.


I placed a few thing on my Italian Florentine tray for the dining room table. I think it is much more interesting to "Make Your Own".



So get started . . . Fall is coming, I promise.

  7. Use what you have in a new way! Beautiful and inexpensive, catching the eye, but not the pocketbook.

  11. I agree with you, although I do shop for accessories as well. However half of the time I dont use them as they're intended. And alot of the time I'll spray paint an exsisting item and create something new. I love what you did.

  14. I was lazy this weekend and haven't started fall decorating yet. In Texas, fall doesn't really start until mid-October. Love your accessories. Can't wait to get my front porch in the fall mood.
