Autumn Colors, New Hampshire

There is music in the meadows, in the air–
Autumn is here;
Skies are gray, but hearts are mellow,

—William Stanley Braithwaite, (1878–1962)

Frugal Ways To Decorate For Fall

Wednesday, September 27th, 2006

Create a Bewitched Fall-O-WeenIf you are trying to watch your budget, buying now, might now be the best idea. All of your decorating needs are going to be at full price. But I came across this article just a few minutes ago and it makes perfect sense. You simply go through your house and use what you already have. And you might be thinking right about now that you have nothing that would work. After reading through these ideas, you might be pleasantly surprised. Here’s just a snipit…

“As the sunny summer fades out and we enter autumn, it’s time to give your home a look that captures the spirit of the season, adding spice and warmth to your home in a simple, natural way. Whether you’re spreading pumpkins and gourds around your kitchen or porch, or adorning your sofa with soft, warm blankets, you’ll find that it’s small touches that go a long way when decorating for the fall.

This year look to the outdoor autumn world for inspiration when you decorate. Why go out and buy plastic decorations when you can find almost everything you need right in nature? Let’s face it, some Halloween decorations can be downright gaudy. Not only will do-it-yourself decorating save you money, but the look you achieve will be more natural, refined, and last in your home long after Halloween has passed. Plus, you can tap into your creativity with hands-on decorating, a fun way to get you into the fall spirit. Get outside and take this opportunity to enjoy the outdoors before the cold of winter moves in.”
