Starting Something New

The Lord pulled a fast one!
 
Just when I thought, I had all I could handle right now, He gives me another assignment. 
I am so thankful!

Allow me to share some pictures of
 the home of my newest client . . .

Fall Mantels

From what I see, most have either begun or at least thought about their fall decorating.  For those who have mantels they can be a beautiful and colorful focal point.
 
 
(Before you continue, let me warn you that I am a little bitter today. In my final comments I am not referring to any one blog or person, it's an overall thing)

It's difficult for me to find mantels that I really like.  I am not much into what I call "Baby Furniture" decorating meaning just filling in with whatever.  I see this quite often in homes where individuals fill in with furniture that is too small for the room.
 
I enjoy lush, fullness and uniqueness.  I am so over the
"copy cat" syndrome as well.
 
Our homes should reflect Us not Us and everyone eles' home.
 
This fall be unique, take a walk outside, use nature, fill in with lushness, let your decorating speak who you are.  Use larger pieces to catch the eye not gaudy . . .lush, warm.
 
I apologize, but I am so tired of seeing the same thing in every one's home.  I love it when I come across a blog that shows true uniqueness and sophistication.
