Since it's still in the 90's outside, I've been trying to add subtle hints of autumn inside the house.
The other day I put up the Halloween decor inside the china cabinet, as well as added just a teensy bit of autumn berries and leaves in the foyer and living room.
Then on Saturday, after the barn guy FINALLY left the house, I created a small vignette inside my room. I wish I had better materials to work with, but for now it is what it is. I'm definitely changing it as soon as I can.
The pine cone candle was white and covered in dirt that refused to wash off, so I painted it. I doubt the light from the candle will shine through at all now, but it doesn't matter since today I noticed the light doesn't shine very bright to begin with. I'll probably replace it with a small glass jar with a battery operated candle inside instead. I'll also fill the jar with something fall-ish.
By the way, it wasn't easy taking decent photos. The lighting in my bedroom is a joke.

Our Don Juan rose bush is finally looking all pretty again. She really surprised me because she went from being all gorgeous and profusely blooming to really suffering for a while there. She isn't quite her old self again, but I think she's on her way.
And isn't that an awesome frog?!
Abby is actually behaving more like a dog lately. For weeks now she's often lying down on the LIVING ROOM RUG instead of beneath my bed.
More Autumn decor, even tho it's 90 there!!!
