Well, it doesn’t feel like fall this week with temperatures close to 90 degrees, but I have added some fall touches to my house.
Okay, really just one fall touch.
Working full time has really slowed me down, ladies!
So I am celebrating the little things around my house.
Here’s my little thing:
The buffet in my house usually looks like this…
Last year, when Mom passed away, the ladies I worked with at Mom’s Day Out gave me a beautiful fall wreath centerpiece with a candle in the middle of it.
I put in on my kitchen table and it looked wonderful, but my two year old at the time kept picking at the berries on the wreath and making a mess.
So I decided this year, it might be a better idea to hang the wreath up.
I hung the wreath over the mirror above my buffet.
I hung it with burlap ribbon that I bought at JoAnn’s Fabrics. I absolutely love this stuff! (I know…shocker…Traci loves burlap.)
Seriously, this ribbon is delicate and delicious. Yes. I said delicious.
I am still playing around with ways to decorate the buffet. For now, I just made a table runner from brown burlap (insert shocked look on your face).
This is the beverage server and Verde berry bowl that I got with my free bonus points from my Willow House party! I love them!
The berry bowl usually holds grapes or cherries in my fridge (it’s actually a strainer), but I thought it looked really cute with the little white pumpkins in it.
I can’t wait to use my beverage server at the next get-together I host. Won’t it look great filled with sweet tea or lemonade?
So there you have it. My fall touch.
I hope to do a few more things around the house and on the front and back porch, and I will be sure to share some pictures.
If you want a to see a plethora of fall ideas (wow, did I just say plethora? are you impressed?) you need to go see Melissa at The Inspired Room. She hosted a Fall Nesting Party last week that is full of Fall goodness. Check it out!
Have a great day!

The wreath looks great, and your right that ribbon is delicious!
Oh it looks great and so fall like! I haven’t seen that burlap ribbon at JoAnn’s guess I need to go take a look!! :-) Thanks for sharing your fall idea!!
Love the burlap and the wreath! I just added some fall items to our decor in our home last weekend. Feels warm and cozy!! :) Happy Friday!
I LOVE the wreath!! It’s so pretty. I haven’t done any fall decorating yet because it’s still in the mid 90’s in Baton Rouge too!
Looks great! I love your buffet and your beverager server is so pretty, too!
Traci the wreath and ribbon look beautiful. Just perfect for fall. :)
I REALLY love this idea. I recently hung a large mirror in my entryway and just have that “off” feeling every time I look at it because the scale is all wrong. But to hang a wreath over it might make me love it like I meant to, at least until I find another great spot to hang the mirror.
