Good Morning!
It is finally feeling and looking like fall. I'm trying to remember to enjoy it as much as possible. Yesterday I took a nice long walk and it was wonderful to see all the pretty leaves and front door displays along my route.
The tree in my front yard is gorgeous right now with a mixture of yellow, green and red leaves. Looking out my front window everything seems to glow a golden color, it's gorgeous.
Inspired by the lovely view outside my window I decided to make a simple leaf swag to hang over my chalkboard in the dinning room.
Oozing simplicity, I think the swag is a pretty way to add some seasonal color to the room.
To make the swag, I gathered a few different types of leaves from my yard and then pressed them overnight inside a heavy book
The next day I simply started layering sprigs of leaves on top of each other and when I thought it looked nice I tied the steams with some vintage lace.
Super Simple.
I think it looks amazing!
Have a great day,
beautiful, easy, and cheap......the best kind of ornamentation. This certainly is a gorgeous time of year.
