Time for Kelli's Show and Tell http://kellishouse.blogspot.com/ Today I'm sharing two of my favorite items in our house. These matching gold-leafed sconces have little crystal prisms on them. In keeping with the fall theme I have added faux fall leaves of brown and bronze with the tips touched with gold glitter. I call myself a budget decorator, very frugal, who decorates on a shoestring since I either buy everything on sale, or from garage sales, etc. These were a little bit of a splurge since I fell in love with them when I saw them at an antique store several years ago. My sweet husband gave them to me for our anniversary!I have added more fall decorations to our home and share them with you below. We have found out we're having our whole family here with us for Thanksgiving, including both grandbabies! This has given me more incentive for decorating for fall. After Halloween I'll start adding turkeys and Thanksgiving items.

The sconces go well with your "chandy"! What a sweet husband you have.
Oh, that looks very pretty & elegant indeed! Last year, I looked for such little crystal prisms, too but since they were quite difficult to find (or rather expensive), I gave up in the end! I wish we had more of those antique shops or garage sales over here, too!
Have a great Friday!
My daughter and I are just blown away by your decor. It is amazing how American women decorate for the seasons. We don't do this to the same extent in Australia, except for Christmas. We love your things - and more so when you say you collect so frugally. You clearly have a great eye and know something really beautiful when you see it.
Blessings and bliss
They are just so very pretty. I love the crystals.
Thanks for sharing.
Take care,
Connie
These are just beautiful. And such a pretty fall color too.
Pretty, pretty, PRETTY!!
[and I'm sure you're looking forward to having all the family for Thanksgiving!!]
I have always loved the crystal pieces. Yours are lovely.

Hi--I especially love the goose, tea table and glass chandelier thingy--glad the last radiation is over and that you will have a fam type reunion at Thanksgiving!! You should post pics of it!!
They're beautiful! I love how you have them decorated.
Frugal? Did you say Frugal? That is right up my alley.
Those are lovely. You have done a wonderful job.
Your sconces are beautiful! I love all you fall decor.
Gorgeous! And the fall leaves will be perfect for when Thanksgiving rolls around.
They are very pretty.
Hi Katherine :) Thank you for sharing these today! I am so excited about your family Thanksgiving - that will be so much fun. Blessings! Q
You really do have an eye for beautiful things. The fall leaves are the perfect compliment to your sconces.
How wonderful that your family will be visiting for Thanksgiving. Thanksgiving is my favorite holiday because nothing is expected but spending time with family and being grateful. And lots of stuffing, of course. :)
What beautiful sconces! I love the crystal hangy-doodles! I really like how you put in the fall leaves! Very pretty!

Very pretty Show and Tell today, Katherine. I'm loving all the pictures you've been showing of your fall decorating. I especially love your tea cart and that very cute duck!
You have such a special touch for decorating and I always enjoy seeing pictures of your home. More, more...!
Yellow Rose,
Thanks for commenting on my headvases. If you really like them, keep an eye out at garage sales and auctions. Sometimes you can pick them up very reasonably.
Warm Wishes,
Mary
Sorry that you missed my Show N Tell [I've been using a different header for Halloween so, it is EASY to miss]

And to answer your question, the "PINK" for 'next' week's category is the subject we have to find for the photo hunt, which is a Saturday Meme that if a LOT of fun.
The woman that is the leader for us, picks a subject for each Saturady, we have to go out and 'hunt' and take a photo of that certain subject. This week it was practical for the word, last week it was smelly next week it's anything pink. And so on and so on. Very fun.
Beautiful! I love your crystal sconces! And the decorations you have added to them are perfect.
