Signs of Autumn

Wheat01 
The seasons are slowly changing…I can feel it in the air and see it in the fields. The sun is setting earlier and the evenings are turning cool. Almost chilly. This is absolutely my favorite time of year.

Seemingly overnight it puts me in the mood to start nesting and decorating. Today I'm headed to Trader Joes because I heard through the grapevine they have the most lovely pumpkins in grays, greens and pastels. Have you been? I plan on loading my basket to overflowing. Bring on the bounty!

    Hi Heather!
    I am a big fan of Autumn! It’s truly my favorite!
    We have the most amazing pumpkin patch here and they too have gorgeous pumpkins in fabulous colors! I also love kale and plan on planting some in my urns this weekend!
    ~quick question…I have been out looking for the chalk pin you used in the souvenir project to no avail. In what area would it be found? Just might have to get it online!
    Have a wonderful day!

    I found the most lovely and unusual pumpkins and squash at our local Farmers Market. The pumpkin is pale orange/green with a lacy cream overlay pattern.

    Love the pics! I can feel Fall creeping up on me even though today it is in the 80’s here in NC. I have yet to start decorating for Fall. I am hoping to start doing just that this weekend!

    Absolutely go to TJ’s – I just picked up the gnarliest, ugliest pumpkin I’ve ever seen at mine in Portland, and I’ll be going back for the grays, greens, deep orange and white ones. Me and my pumpkin are doing a photo shoot when I get home, he’s that adorably ugly (and only $5.99, such a steal! = )

    Yes, they do have the best selection! I bought a huge one that is almost a baby pink in color! First time I have seen one like that I think they were 2.99 or 3.99 in any size!
