It's almost Autumn and time to put away the summery blue and white and bring out the things that say Fall to me.
I have the beautiful Glass Gem corn from this year's garden (I'm still loving those pastels) and I have a fine cat to help me.
Odds and ends -- shells, fossils, gourds, more corn . . .
At this season, some of my friends make ancestor altars and lots of folks use harvest decorations. This is a bit of both, in my mind.
Different pictures and different pillow covers make the living room and kitchen seem more in tune with the season. It's a kind of silly ritual but by putting away some things and bringing out others, it allows us to see our possessions anew.
Of course, were I immensely wealthy, I could just call in an interior designer and go for a complete makeover. But I probably wouldn't.
