My sister requested some festive fall fotos be presented here… so I complied.  I rounded these up over the weekend and hope they put you in the spirit!  It's about 80 degrees in Florida and a cold snap would be much appreciated… I'm hosting a party later this month and can't wait to implement some of these ideas!  I hope they inspire you!!

Images above from: Martha, Cottage, BHG, Allrecipes.com, Pattiewack, Flickr, DominoCountry Home, and the best of these images (in my opinion) came from Country Living!  I've saved them (most of them) as their source, so mouse-over or right click save to see where they came from!

And a PS about the afore mentioned Batter Blaster, it was not a joke, the pancakes are out of this world!  (and I usually eat this kind, so I'd consider myself a reputable connaisseur of pancakes).  My cousin (who vouched for me that indeed they are delicious) bought a 3-pack at Costco and yes, their site says it's available at Whole Foods.

  3. Thanks Sister! I love them all… my favs:
    THE acorn & leaf cookies & the woman in the striped shirt with the orange apron… not what she’s doing {although that’s cute too} but I prefer what she’s wearing… it’s so festive! :) Ok, I thought I was done decorating… looks like I have a few more things I just HAVE to do!! :) Love you! Thanks for all the inspiration!!

    also, may i ask a stupid question? i am in love with the bronze/gold pumpkins…is that just as easy as spray paint? …or is it some other technique?
    hmmm…

  24. AAhhhhhh, love these and love fall! Thanks E!

  25. WOW. this is the ulitmate cornucopia of images. really great collection. I did that stacked look once and one day overheard some passing neighbors laughing about my ‘pumpkin man’ I guess it looked more like a snow man than anything.

    Thanks,
    McGee and Mike

  27. Oh, I love everything! I especially love the acorn cookies! You have inspired to do some baking!
