Hello Friends! So happy your stopped by THE SCOOP!  Here at StoneGable I’m busy getting ready for fall! Or should I say that I’m TRANSITIONING into the fall season.

I love the word transitioning when it comes to decorating! It’s just so so smart! And speaking of decorating… I am sharing THE VERY BEST DECORATING TIP YOU WILL EVER GET… REALLY! Do this one thing and it will make such a difference! This is a must-read!

and Suzy from Worthing Court Our host this week is
Debbie at Confessions of a Plate Addict

Hi everyone! It’s been a busy week here with summer starting to wind down for us and the grands back in school! A little sign of fall arrived with the first blooms on my ginger lilies…always a welcome sign that the summer heat can’t last too much longer!

 

 And although I realize it may be a little early for those of you in colder climates, it’s a favorite season here at CONFESSIONS OF A PLATE ADDICT! Since I know that many of you are DIYers like me and need a little time to get ready, I am sharing 10 WAYS TO GET A HEAD START ON FALL…and you won’t need any real pumpkins for these ideas!

I have also shared some tips for creating a VINTAGE FARMHOUSE CENTERPIECE starring vintage ironstone, old silverplate and vintage-look grain sack. I have even included a source for the grain sack, so head on over to check it out!

And now…here are a few of my favorites from last week’s Scoop!

Sharon at The Blue Willow House shared her tips for creating a QUICK AND EASY SUCCULENT CENTERPIECE in her wonderful chippy thrifty find! Love this idea!

 Ashley at Vintage Refined showed us how she is MAKING IT PERSONAL by using monograms throughout her home. I especially loved the grain sack cover on this Bentwood chair…and the bright pop of green among the blue and white!

 Mary at Home Is Where the Boat Is amazed us with her WATERING CAN LOVE …a fabulous collection of watering cans in every size and shape! My favorites are the galvanized ones!

 
 

If you know me, you know I loved this one! Melissa at Dancing Dog Cabin gave us a peek into her collection and shared 4 REASONS TO COLLECT VINTAGE SILVERWARE…beautiful!

Who doesn’t love peaches…and Pam at Everyday Living has SOME PEACHY WAYS TO USE THEM, including this idea…stacked on her mom’s pound cake. Yum!

And now, I want to see what you have to share, so let’s get on with the party!

  9. Love your hay wagon dumping its bounty analogy. Been there, done that! Graduated to more subtle fall touches that are quick to place and whisper fall, not blare it with a trumpet. Thanks for all your great features. Especially look forward to your Sunday blogs. Too few of those out there in this day and age.
