Fall Kitchen

Hi Everyone.

Before I share some of my Fall Kitchen I have to show you why I cannot start the fall decor outside just yet.

Still seeing summer hanging on in the front of the house.

This is how my flower boxes looked back in May when I planted them.  You could see the flower boxes!

This is my flower boxes at the end of September trying to hang on.  They are so lush still and have grown down to the ground.  You cannot even see the black flower boxes.

My bike is still going strong too.

There are not a lot of flowering plants except for the re blooming of my hydrangea's and a few petunia's and daisy's are hanging on.  

The hosta's are nearing the end and my knock out roses are still going strong.  

We are in the northern suburbs of Chicago so they are saying we could get a frost over the weekend.  If that happens all of these plants will end and Fall will definitely be in full swing. 

I am hoping the greens will continue and I can add some faux fall flowers and pumpkins etc. to the flower boxes.  A little of real and a little of faux for fall hopefully soon.

Here are some of the changes in my kitchen for fall.

You all saw my sweet witch angel that my friend Cil gifted me.  Pumpkins are all around her.

Just simple fall under the kitchen window.

Nothing better than sunflowers and daisies in an old chippy watering can.

I got the cute black and white check bag from a sweet lady that follows my blog. 
I met her and her daughter at a market a few weekends ago. 
They had the cutest booth and I scored this cute bag and some pumpkins.    It was fun to chat with them. 
It is always fun to run into people that say Hey Kris I know you from your blog and was hoping I would see you here and be able to meet you.   That just made my day.  I felt like a celebrity! 

Adding just a few things here and there in the kitchen.

This is the sweet painting I got from artist Julie Norkus at the Vintage Market Show.  Julie said she will make a pretty version like this fall picture for the holidays.  I cannot wait to see what she comes up with.  Then I can switch this out for a lovely Christmas picture.

Julie's art work is so beautiful.  I cannot wait for her Holiday Open House Show at her home.  That will be coming up in November.

I've got my light gray and white pumpkins in my decor for the kitchen.

I think this cherub loves hanging with the fall decor pieces on the shelf.

As you know I live small now but I still like to add a little decor in each room.

It is hard to see the color of the velvet pumpkin in window but it is a soft gray color.  Shooting into  backlighting is hard with this window no matter what time of day it is.

I moved around some of the things on my shelves to make a few changes to my coffee area.

I loved this cute little sign I found at Home Goods.  Ya gotta love Home Goods!

The Murphy Bed is finished and just needs to be painted.  I am loving how it came out.
I will have that post up in the next few days.

I have a new puppy so things are getting done on a much slower schedule now!

Thanks for all your good wishes for our newest fur Angel Buddy.
He is doing really great with the puppy training.
Hugs,
Kris
