Decorating the Buffet for Fall -2014

Fall in the dining room.

So I've been experimenting with my fall decor...

What would happen if you placed deer antlers inside of white pitchers?

Or carefully set a pheasant on top of a rusty looking nozzle thing...

Old worn out plates, a tarnished silver tray, crispy white dishes, dried flowers, and a handful of harvested wheat say fall to me.

What about turkey feathers, a thrifted apple sitting on top of a milk glass bowl, and a spool of twine...

Is it decor-ically correct to arrange antlers and a globe together in front of a mirror?

This is my version...

of fall in the dining room.
I hope you were inspired. 

Thank you so much for stopping by Thrift My House.

  4. My favorite is the globe/antler/mirror combo, Sherry. I'm pretty sweet on the stool with the basket of wheat and pumpkins, too. :)

  14. Who cares if it is decor-ically correct? If you love it, that's all that matters! I think it looks great...I would have never thought of it. The contrast between the white and the brown-ish fall elements really is nice!

  19. I just love it all Sherry, but the globe and the antlers together are my favourite. You have a great eye, and as far as I'm concerned there are no decor rules. We should all just do what feels right to us. Your dining room looks perfectly lovely for fall.

  20. How pretty, Sherry! I've seen so many of your individual projects, I just don't think I've seen a full room so this is great! And I know you painted those cabinets! The table is gorgeous and I'm loving the way you use the feathers. I didn't know you were on Kris' blog, I'm going to check out the link. I was on Susan's last summer. And you raised birds? Can't wait to hear! I did, too. Parrots and cockatiels.

    Thanks for popping in. Too bad NC is such a big state! We were in Raleigh in May. Are you near there?

  26. My but you have a lot of horns. I mean antlers. Don't want anyone thinking you are hor.... never mind, I like the way you displayed them.

  27. I love the mix of natural items with the white dishes! That's a favorite combination of mine. I also like the cluster of antlers next to the aged looking beige globe. I love the wreath placed over the chalkboard with the writing on it too. Very creative!
