Beautiful house

How Mama's have successful blogs is beyond me! I hardly have a second to reply to emails let alone writing a blog post. However on this particular Monday morning, miraculously I have a small block of time to pop in and share a home tour from House Beautiful. I saw it while flipping through the latest issue while nursing baby Hugh. ; )
I was really intrigued by the dark wall colors with the bright pops of color, a very welcoming and cozy effect.
Enjoy my sweet Luvs!

New Arrangement

Here's a quick shot of the front room in our house that I am constantly rearranging because for some reason it drives me crazy! ; )
But moving around a few things I am totally loving this arrangement in front of our window (for now) lol.

Luvs!

Pumpkins at My Home

My sweet husband picked up some pumpkins to decorate for our front porch. I was especially thankful because we were in desperate need of some sort of fall decor to welcome in the new season!

I love gold pumpkins so I decided to spray paint them all gold. I also love pumpkins with some sort of polka dots on them so Evelette and I had fun painting black ones. I think they turned out pretty cute, they totally remind me of old fashioned french clowns for some reason. It must be the polka dots. : )

I still can't decide which way I like them.
This way

Fun Pumpkins!

I am not one for the usual carving of the pumpkin. I do however love a gorgeously decorated pumpkin!
These few below that I found around online really stood out at me with their originality. The creators really thought outside the box to create one of a kind beauties.

These hand painted pumpkins remind me of Easter eggs, so detailed and stunning. I just keep thinking how sad it will be when they start rotting after all that hard work!!!

These pumpkins with hundreds of brass tacks are totally up my ally. I love anything shinny and gold!

I am sure you have seen these gold painted pumpkins from Making it Lovely but how could I not include these beauties?!

These are the most doable but definitely just as cute. All you need is a sharpie! Genius!

I have got to pick me up some pumpkins to decorate our patio. We will have to somehow get these kiddos loaded in the car and make our way to a pumpkin patch or at least to the local grocery store. ; )
Have a fabulous weekend my Luvs!
