Happy Fall Inspiration from Friends!

Yesterday we finally received a hint that Fall is, indeed, on its way.  It was wonderful to walk outside and feel a bit of cool, crisp air!  Last night DH began pulling my Fall decor out of the attic so I can start deciding how and where I want things to go in this house. 

But, while I am still working on my fall decor, I want to share some fun Fall inspiration from my friend Heidi.  She lives in our "old" town and they got a taste of Fall just a week or so sooner than we did. Heidi is one of those sweet souls who is beautiful inside and out and also has a great dose of good taste!  She always works hard to make her home inviting and a haven for friends and family.  So, enjoy a tiny peek at some of her Fall decor and I hope you find some inspiration to get you in the mood for the season. 

Isn't her entryway just adorable?  I love her Pumpkin Door Hanger!!!  She had this made by Dondee Hicks and it so unique.  Heidi also has others for for different seasons/holidays which are equally fantastic!

I love her Welcome Mum (a Sams Club find!).

This Boo Bucket is one of my favorite decorations.  It just gets me in the mood for Fall fun!

Of course, no tour would be complete without a few of inspirations from inside...

I was surprised by the runner under her kitchen arrangement, but it works so perfectly! Don't you love it when you have friends with such good taste to gather inspiration from?

 Heidi picked up this little sign at one of her favorite stores, Paper Affair (also one of my favorite and most tempting stores. I could never work there because I would spend more than I made). She changes the sign with the seasons. For Easter it says "He has Risen" with a pretty pastel bow... for summer it says "dog days of summer...." It is also great for menus at a dinner party!

There are so many precious little touches that make me feel like a child again, anticipating fall festivals, trips to the apple orchard, hay rides and long walks in crunchy leaves...

Thanks, Heidi, for letting me share your fantastic Fall decor!  I love it!!!
