My Fall Mantle

Fall is my favorite time of year! I have said this many, many times. I love the colors, the smells and the sounds. I love leaves scattered on the sidewalk...and blowing in the wind.
I love fall!
Today I am showing my fall mantle. I usually have decorations up inside and outside by this time. I just haven't had time yet! I thought once I was a SAHM I would time to decorate and do those fun things....but I am busier now than when I worked!!

On with the mantle....
A view from the left side......
And a view from the right side....
I love the design on these candle holders. They stay up year round!

Nothing says fall like pumpkins and pine cones!!!
I thought it would be a fun twist to put pine cones in my favorite fall mosaic hurricane.
This was the center of my fall mantle decoration last year. This year it's just an accent.
This clock also stays up year round!


I love these neutral colors. It matches the rest of the decor in my living room.
We bought this seashell on our trip Galveston. I wasn't sure if it would fit well with my fall mantle but I think it does just fine.


I placed the coral candle near the seashell to help it blend in.My painting also stays up year round. My husband brought his home one night, along with several other paintings. I absolutely love this painting!
Thanks for visiting my fall mantle. If you have any suggestions, please feel free to leave them. I can use any decorating tips or ideas you've got. This weekend I plan to work on my front yard decorations. I can't believe it's that time of year all ready!!
