Autumn is one of my favorite seasons...the beautiful colors, the call to cozy-up and warm your soul, the scents, the rest from a busy outdoor season. So, it's no surprise that I love to decorate our home for the season. Here's a peek at some of the ways I've welcomed autumn into our home.

{this little guy is in my kitchen, on one of the counters}
{this arrangement is on one of our old school desks turned end table...in the living room}
{I made this scarecrow years ago and he's still one those creations that just makes me smile...he's sitting by the jelly cupboard}
{here's another scarecrow that I made....(I have a thing for scarecrows)...and that cute little pumpkin is from Tonya, I won it in her giveaway. I love it Tonya}
{this punch needle and pumpkin jar are in our dining room on the hutch}
{our friends gave us tons of gourds (thanks jerry, cheryl and christi) and I lined a bunch of them on our 60's window thing in the entryway}
{I redid our mantle this year, and I'm loving the asymmetry of the new look}
{and I finished this autumnology cross-stitch into a pillow for our bed}
Thanks for peeking around...and just to keep it real...here's my son's room
and a good thick layer of dust on the hutch...I wouldn't want to give the impression that it's all nice and tidy here all the time or that we don't have dust bunnies ready to attempt a coup, because we do.
Hope you are embracing the season and enjoying all the coziness of autumn.

Your home looks so cute and cosy! I love autumn too -- my favorite time of year.
Blessings,

You decorate like I do....I have those little tiny pumpkins around here somewhere. And the old wooden spools -- I have many of them as well. And yes, we collect dust too. See? Lots of similarities. Your home looks lovely.

PS -- regarding your most recent blog comment. I took lots of pictures of my mom's hooked rugs when I first started my blog. Check back to my "family" entries. Thanks for your kind words.
It's me again....The rugs are from my July entries (under "inspiration" -- sorry).

Beautiful decorations! I always love the idea of seasonal decor, and I usually fail miserably at actually making it happen. At least I get to enjoy others' seasonal decor, though. Thank you for sharing yours. : )
I love your decorations and I have to tell you that I appreciate seeing that you have dust bunnies too!
I love all those gourds!!
What a cozy home. Thanks for inviting us in! I love the cross stitch pillow!
Seeing the pictures makes me miss one of the most welcoming homes I know...and the most inviting hostess I know. Love all the touches of fall!
Thank you for the autumn open house, Lisa! Your home is delightful...so inviting, welcoming and very cozy! I love autumn decorating, but have few decorations. Here in Norway, most people don't do autumn decorating like this, and so not easy to come by things, except for pumpkins. I miss this kind of decorating from home there. Happy week to you & yours :o) ((HUGS))
Looks great! I love autumn and all it brings!!
Just beautiful!!! Might have to come visit!
I am loving fall this year. I also enjoy your decorations. Thanks for having some dust too.
I wish I could decorate like you do. Your place looks great.
I love all your autumn touches, very warm and cozy! Your keeping it real photos made me smile, made me feel at home. :)
Thanks for the autumnal inspiration ... and for the glimpse into your son's room! But mostly -- thank you for sharing your dust collection! Maybe we need to start a Flickr group just for dusty spots in our homes?!?! ;-)
Great pics! dust and all, LOL!
i was just beginning to think that maybe you did have it all together! it looks so warm and inviting.
These photos confirm how warm and cozy (and beautifully personalized) I always imagined your home to be. I love the needle punch and your mantle and your scarecrow - you have a great eye for balance. and I just adore my scarecrow - he's perfect! thank you so very much, Lisa.
Loving your home, Lisa, so warm, cozy and inviting. You have quite a talent for decorating and I think you have done a great job in 'embracing autumn'.
Lisa, what gorgeous pictures. Your home looks wonderful, warm and cozy. I hope that you continue to enjoy all that Autumn offers
Love all the fall decor. I love fall, too. It is the most beautiful season to me. Everything looks wonderful!! Even the dust and your son's room~that's real life.

Lisa,
