Decorating for Fall with a French Bottle Rack


I love fall and I love decorating for fall.  I like to add a touch of red, gold, and orange all over the house.  


The (reproduction) french bottle drying rack that I purchased a couple of years ago is one of my favorite things to change with the seasons.  It sits on the corner of my kitchen island.  I really wish it was shorter so that it would fit underneath my cabinets beside the coffee maker, but it's not so it's home is on the island.

A pumpkin fit perfectly on the top (with the help of a small plate covered with leaves).  The next level also holds a couple of smaller pumpkins (again on a small plate covered with leaves).  Twist a couple of fall berry garlands around the sides and add a wreath around the bottom and you're set.




I hung my black and white monogram mugs on the rack.  Ready to grab when you need a cup of hot apple cider.


Of course, you're going to need a cinnamon stick in your hot apple cider.  Must have!




A couple of apples because they just look so right.  



Beautiful!  I'm ready for the cooler weather now.  Bring it on!  Watch over the next few weeks as our Fall Blog Tour continues.  September is definitely time for fall decorating, recipes, and crafts.

As always, thanks for stopping by and God bless!

French Bottle Drying Rack Christmas Tree

I've seen so many variations of Christmas trees this year.  Ladders, tomato cages, tree stands, and, now a french bottle drying rack!  How fun to think outside the box and create a tree from totally unexpected items.



The small loops at the top of the vintage ornaments fit perfectly over the drying stems...as did the holes in the vintage cookie cutters.  


Beneath the tree, we arranged our tiny gingerbread village, complete with powdered sugar snow.


The little snowman and santa are actually candy that we found at the Dollar Tree.  Love that place!




An adorable gingerbread couple sit atop the tree.  They're dressed as bakers so I thought they were the perfect tree topper for this tree.

I know I'm behind with blogging.  We had 30+ people at our place for Thanksgiving so I didn't even get around to posting during November!  I hope to make up for that in the next few weeks.

Thanks for stopping by and God bless!!
