Finding Fall Inspiration

The inspiration zone for me,

whether it is for fall or any other

time of year,

is the most fun

when it happens inside my own home.



It is like the expression

’east meets west’,

or in this case,


a sunburst mirror my middle daughter gave me

propped as the perfect backdrop for my new

mercury glass pumpkins.

Or when it occurred to me

that my cream ceramic pumpkin might look pretty

in the hutch in the nap room.

Especially if it is near its baby pumpkins-

(I know… I went a bridge too far with that description…)

And then there’s

that slow dance easing into orange-

a favorite fall color.



It’s just that it is still in the 90’s here,

and it hasn’t

felt

like fall as yet.

So instead,

I inspired myself with small

chinoiserie plates

and a small box,

that I found recently at the flea market.

And then the orange of a cooler fall

made perfect sense today.
