It's officially official….

Fall is here…...with vengeance!

Spooky Sunrises….

Turn into beautiful blue skies and sunshine...

Then sunset…The colours are spectacular!

How about some tailgating? It is football season after all! We have a full Thanksgiving dinner at the TigerCat/Argo game in Guelph Thanksgiving weekend!

Had to put the Fall photo cards up in my office….

Do you find you gravitate to 'spicier', more 'woodsy' scents this time of year? I sure do….and these candle from Chapters Indigo are AMAZING! I just ordered a bunch! (They're 25% off until October 28th too!)

I headed to my parent's this weekend and was greeted with quite a snowy drive and this as I pulled in the lane way….. The Sumacs are gorgeous this time of year and just pop against the white snow!

Have a great weekend! Hope you stay warm and cosy…I'm off to make a Chai Latte…. Cheers!

Dear Summer.....So long for now...

Another summer has flown by.... I'm literally sitting here thinking to myself.."where the heck have the past few months gone!?"....

I was sitting on the patio the other morning with a latte and a magazine, there was a slight chill in the air as black walnuts fell around me..a sure sign that Fall is well on its way.

A last 'pop' of summer colour...

One of the last bonfires....

My back deck bounty....it's harvest time!

The Sea Buckthorn is ready to be picked!

Even the sunsets take on a different glow at this time of year....

Sunflowers...the PERFECT Fall flower!

Beautiful bouquets at the market...perfect for a Fall table scape.

I've already started Fall wreaths for clients....let me know if you'd like me to put one together for you!

Charlie and I went for a walk this long weekend...the morning mist and colours look like Fall is just around the corner.

YEAH!! It's sweater and jeans time again! Love this ensemble from Blushshop!

As much as I love the long, sunny days of summer, I am ready for Fall....the cooler days/nights, the changing leaves, the bounty from the summer's growth....You'll still find me on the deck/patio/beach....I'll just have a nice warm sweater and quilt with me!

I have to say, I think Fall may be my favourite time of year!

P.S. I've also 'claimed my blog..Follow my blog with Bloglovin

Natural Beauty....

Oranges, reds, yellows, falling leaves, harvested crops, firewood, crisp blue skies, pumpkins, bare tree limbs, final Farmer's Markets, walks through the forest......

 

All of these pictures were taken close to home....I feel very lucky to live where we can experience all 4 seasons...but especially Autumn....

First Weekend of Fall....

 

This is my favorite time of year....

 

Mother Nature plays a big part in why I love Fall and these photos help to explain why....

 

 

 

You can't find colours so deep any true any other place but in nature...

 

 

The tones, the shades, the light.....

 

 

The clouds at sunset....looked like a storm was rolling in....

 

 

Whites, greys, yellows...

 

 

 

Orange, green, more grey and white...

 

 

Front entryway...welcome...

 

 

Mini Island in the kitchen...vintage tin signs, pie stand, wooden cheese box, apples.....

 

 

Curled up on the couch looking through Style at Home ....

 

 

I couldn't believe my eyes....a double rainbow....'make a wish'...and I did! ;)

 

 

The rainbow was guiding me home....but, the elusive pot of gold could not be found...

 

 

My front steps....pumpkins, gourds, grasses, antlers, drfit wood....

 

 

 

The base arrangement is from The Garage in Belmore, ON and I have just added to it....

 

 Bring on the frost, the raking of the leaves, the hot chocolate, the bonfires...the list could go on and on....

Happy Fall!
