Hi!
Actually, because the colour scheme I have in my house ( kitchen, living and dinning room) is all in shades of green, orange, brown and red my house kinda feels "fall" all year long .
I love earthy colours, as you can well see....
Inspired by this centre piece from Better Homes and Gardens via Karin Lidbeck's blog I decided to bring this simple arrangement to the mantle.
Instead of using real white pumpkins, I bought these ceramic ones at Dominium and the twigs at Dollarama.
Wrap the twigs around, twist and ...ready.
Love the white against the dark brown wall and the simplicity of it.

Love the votive candles! What a romantic touch! I have an ugly mantle that needs some paint. Love how the white on yours contrasts with the wall. Lovely idea.

Great job! You nailed the knock-off look :) I used the bittersweet picks from Dollarama to decorate my mantel this year as well. I love the touch of whimsy that they add. I have looked at those ceramic pumpkins in the Superstore many times but didn't see how I could use them. Now you've given me great inspiration!
ReplyDeleteI love coming across Canadian blogs because I know I can actually find the things they share :) I hope you'll stop by and say hi!
P.S. Congrats on your House of Hepworths feature!
Claire!
DeleteAHHHH! I LOVE when I come across other Canadian bloggers!!

I will pop by your blog right now, take lots of peeks and gladly follow you back!
