Chalkboards In The Kitchen + Some Fall Inspiration

 Happy Monday, everyone! Today, I would like to share three chalkboards I have in the kitchen. The one you see directly below I found at HomeGoods. 
 This  chalkboard was a tiny project. It was actually a picture and I painted the glass with Chalkboard paint, and repurposed it.  I hung this chalkboard on my pantry door using Velcro Sticky Back Tape. Let me tell you, this tape holds. 
This chalkboard I also found at HomeGoods and it sits on the kitchen island.
 Chalkboards are fun to use for decorating because you can change the text and pictures through the seasons.
 Now onto some inspiration I found at Pier 1 Imports. I absolutely love their seasonal plates and these Autumn plates are gorgeous.
 Another idea is placing mini lights in your lanterns. I did this in my family room lantern, but I added pumpkins and autumn leaves….I like to call it – Fall in a Lantern. I will share this soon.
 The pillows are adorable. You don’t need to break the bank adding new fall pillows to your sofas, simply add a fall pillow to the mix, or place on a chair.
 Adding dried fall foliage to containers you have at home is a simple way to add those warm autumn colors to any room.
Isn’t this pretty? Decorating with plates, containers, and fall foliage in big containers really brings that warmth to any space.
Well, I hope you gathered a few ideas when you are ready to decorate for Fall. Get those ideas flowing….I did! 😉  Thanks for visiting.

Fall Broomstick

Hi there! Yesterday, while at the grocery store, I spotted a Fall Broomstick in the floral section of Safeway. I thought it was a cute idea for fall. So, I gathered my supplies and headed home to make one.
If you have a Safeway close by, you can pick up several different styles of leaves and dried ones, too! This is what I picked up!
 I got two different colors of ribbon, I love the silk ribbon, burlap would be another great idea, too!
 There are different aromatic broomsticks to choose from, I got the Pumpkin Cinnamon, it smells soooooo good!
You can use a hot glue gun, but I decided to use some garden wire instead, easy!
 Just tie your bundle of leaves together using the garden wire and finish off the look by tying your silk ribbon over the garden wire to conceal it. 
I double tied my bows.
 Isn’t it a cute idea for Fall? Thank you Safeway! 😉  Of course, if you do not have a Safeway in your area, you can find these items at any craft store.
 I love the pop of color against the dark broomstick.
I may make another broomstick and hang two on my double French doors.
Well, I hope you like this idea, the creativity is endless.  If you make one, I would love to see it!
Thanks for visiting! xo, Liz
