Sometimes you need something that takes
just a few minutes to put together.
Something that says ‘Autumn’
That evokes feelings of the season like
colorful red and yellow leaves on the trees
cool evenings warming by the fire
hot cocoa and pumpkin bread
and all that Pendleton wool blankets and hot apple cider Autumn goodness
but without a huge amount of work.
You know what I mean?
My project list feels like it is about 3 miles long right now. Literally.
So fun seasonal decorating hasn’t exactly been on the front burner recently.
Especially, when I have been doing more decorating for Christmas for print
than for Autumn for sharing on my blog.

So I thought this month I would start a new series of posts sharing simple
easy and charming decorating ideas
that you can do in those extra five minutes
when you pause to sip coffee
and check email
and make a grocery list
and wait for the freshly mopped floor to dry
Or… maybe just when you have a few free minutes.

This vignette is so simple and so easy to put together
and, yes, I am loving it.
It’s so simple really too. It’s just a few little pumpkins
in soft shades of whites and grays
With a strand of white berries
and just enough dried hydrangea to bring in that natural green.
I started with a tray
and added bits and more bits
until I was happy with how it looked.
On the coffee table (or bench)
it is the right amount of Autumn charm.

Beautiful! Most of the time the simplest little vignettes are the best. Showing something that you can put together in 5 minutes is so inspiring when we all have so much to get done in a day. Jamie @ anderson + grant

There is just something special about the white pumpkins. They are so elegant looking and you could keep them up after Thanksgiving. You have such an eye for decorating and your photos reflect that.

This looks absolutely lovely but I would so appreciate seeing a picture of the entire tray as it is displayed in the context of the room. Your talents as an artist are amazing.

Love it too. I totally changed my color palette in my home this year – orange just wont do! I am loving the neutral fall look and loving this arrangement you made!
Unknown says
Love the tray idea and the soft side of fall in your color pallet.
