Grateful pillow

I am always blown away at the cost of pillows. I mean two pieces of fabric, a little bit of stuffing and the cost is $20 and up.

I'm not really much of a DIY crafter, but when an opportunity comes up, I rise to the occasion.

My daughter bought a placemat at Target in their $3 bin. When she brought it home, she thought about making a wall hanging. BUT! Mom took it in another direction. The pillow.

I purchased a pillow form for about $5, found fabric in my stash for the backing and created my own Grateful pillow for under $10.

As opposed to the Target pillow
 

 that listed for $20.

I can live with that!

The Warmth of Fall

It's always fun to decorate a table this time of year. The brilliance of fall colors perks up any meal.







Enjoying the warmth of fall.

Country roads

Last year  I took random shots as we traveled along country roads.


The cabin was tucked behind some trees by the side of the road.

You just never know what you will find on country roads.

Autumn Delight

Aren't fall colors always so warm and inviting.






Autumn's Delight teacup by Johnson Brothers
I also made Pomegranate Iced Tea, as we are still enjoying 80 degree weather here in the south.

 Pomegranates, pears and apples grace the centerpiece.

 The cake plate was painted by my late mother in love.



This table was from a few years ago, but I loved it so much I am re-posting.
