I took out my trusty red table runner and three vases I had on hand from a bridal shower I threw years ago. Tip for cheap vases – find a local wholesale floral distributor. I bought 12 of these babies for only $2 – $3 a piece and I get so much use out of them.
I filled up the vases with with scented pinecones for an inexpensive but perfect fall scent. I also threw in the pearly painted pumpkins I made for Halloween.
The leaf trinket plates were originally green and only $1 at the craft store. Nothing some pearly spray paint can’t solve.
Are you doing any fall specific decorating or jumping straight into the big holidays?

i love the simplicity and natural elements! i actually just had pinecones as a centerpiece! we had collected them from the yard to glitter, and last night we finished glittering them, so they are no longer the centerpiece and have instead been glued to a wreath that we all contributed to.
i love this look, anna!
I never really decorated for fall either, but when you write a blog you feel left out if you don’t! HA! I love those scented pine cones! I can’t wait to buy them for christmas!
I was wondering if you would like to guest post for my blog series Spary Painters Anonymous? Let me know if you are interested!

Gosh I can’t even decide. I have some cute velvet pumpkins I usually take out for Halloween but didn’t this year. I am hosting quite a large Thanksgiving this year so I probably should get myself in gear. How do they scent pinecones I wonder?
Cute! Love the leaf plates! I kept my fall decorations up, but I’m skipping past Thanksgiving and right ahead to Christmas 🙂
