Today, we're celebrating Autumn's arrival. Seeking Fall’s colorful foliage is one of the many joys of our beautiful Autumn Season.
Many make special trips to see such glory!! Leaves and trees changing color…
What fun to bundle into the car and enjoy!! Special train rides are even an option in many states!
Celebrating Autumn's Arrival
1. Fall Foliage & Branches
In the US and all over the world, this is a time-honored tradition.
From the East to West Coasts, couples and families all enjoy these happy, joyful, beautiful excursions! How romantic ~ creating wonderful memories together to last a lifetime.
Picnicking ~ tailgating along the way would be some added fun!! Of course, fall also brings tailgating at traditional High School and College Football Games, Homecoming or Parents Weekends!!
While out for Fall excursions, it can be fun to collect branches from trees, eucalyptus, wheat, willow to bring nature indoors, to your own homes! You can enjoy arranging, even adding fall blooms or fruit in vessels from Michael Aram’s nature collections, wonderful vintage brass, pottery, vases and urns. Entry halls, centerpieces, gifts, or any room in your home will be natural reminders of the beauty of the season and your trip!

Many can be dried and kept for months…as we prepare our homes for colorful Halloween, Holiday and Thanksgiving dining and festivities!
3. Fall Entertaining

Wheat is a beautiful Autumn motif along with Olives, Leaves, Pomegranates and of course, Pumpkins.
As we prepare for our Fall Entertaining and special table settings in the coming weeks, Wedgwood’s Vera Wang Jardin is one of my new favorites! This bone china pattern with glorious gold details on each piece is totally charming and chic, whether you are having drinks and dessert, a wine and appetizer evening or thinking about an upcoming Thanksgiving Buffet or Dinner! Today’s gold dinnerware is pleasingly dishwasher-safe.
