Faking a Fall Vignette - Προσποιείται μια Φθινοπωρινή βινιέτα
Here in my costal town in the boondocks, we have blue waters, lots of olive…
Εδώ στην παραλιακή πόλη μου, έχουμε γαλανά νερά, πολλά ελαιόδεντρα, αλλά όχι πολλά για παραδοσιακή Φθινοπωρινή διακόσμηση. Λοιπόν, με μεγάλη λύπη βγήκα από το τοπικό μας “Ευρώ Store” ένα πράγμα που έμοιαζε με μικρά κολοκύθια. Θέλω να γιορτάσω το Φθινόπωρο, αλλά οι δυνάμεις συνωμοτούν εναντίον μου.Τα κολοκύθια ηταν ενωμένα με ψεύτικα φύλλα σε ένα αμπέλι-σχοινί. Τα αφαίρεσα και τα έβαψα ελαφρά. Ήμουν επίσης αρκετά τυχερή που βρήκα κάποιες πραγματικές κολοκύθες στο τοπικό σούπερ μάρκετ. Αυτή είναι η προσφορά μου για τη Φθινοπωρινή διακόσμηση.
Ίσως να θυμάστε ότι την τελευταία φορά σας έδειξααυτό το συρτάρι που είχα διαμορφώσει σε ένα δίσκο και είχε σχέδιό τάβλι. Αυτό χρησιμοποιήθηκε για την βινιέτα.
Χρησιμοποίησα αντικείμενα που βρίσκονται στη φύση, όπως κουκουνάρια, ξερά φύλλα και φυσικά τις κολοκύθες, και προσθεσα μόνο τα ψεύτικα λευκά κολοκυθάκια για να ισορροπήσουν τα πιο σκούρα χρώματα.
Οι χρυσές γιρλάντες προστέθηκαν για κάποια επιπλέον λάμψη.
Αυτή η βινιέτα τώρα κάθεται περήφανα στο τραπεζάκι του σαλονιού. Διότι ας το παραδεχτούμε, αν δεν πάω καμιά βόλτα στα βουνά δεν θα βρω το Φθινόπωρο εδώ στην ακτή. Πιστεύω πως έκανα μια αρκετά καλή δουλειά. Εσείς συμφωνείτε μαζί μου ;

This is a beautiful. You may call it ‘faking it’ but it looks pretty real to me! Well done!!!!!! ~ Rose
Aww thanks so much Rose. It means a lot to get recognized after all the trouble I had in finding elements for this vignette. So nice to see that we have a growing European community. So you understand me better than my American friends.
I think it looks festive.
Do drop by and say hello!
Blessings,
Laura of Harvest Lane Cottage
Thanks Laura I was going for a happy look one that did not remind me of the beach and the heat… So I guess your comment confirms that all turned out well. I’ll be dropping by to visit you.
I like it! Good way to use what you have available! Thanks again for sharing at Welcome Home Wednesdays.
Tracy it was such a dilemma. The problems we bloggers create! But in the end nature saved the day because if I had depended on retailing I would have nothing now! See you tomorrow!
Nothing wrong with faking 😉 It looks beautiful! Thank you so much for sharing with us at Thursday Favorite Things blog hop.
Thanks sweet Jas. It is looking pretty good. Soon I’ll be able to add to it and turn it into a Christmas vignette. Time is rushing by too fast for me.
Mary, neutrals and metallic…how can you go wrong? Thanks for sharing at Five Star Frou-Frou. Will you join me again this week? Mimi xxx
Mimi, I’m already there!! Have a glass of wine ready for me! xoxo
Just letting you know that you beautiful fall vignette setting got featured at my craft party!! Hope you will stop by again to link up your latest DIY!
Denise I am thrilled that my fake little vignette was featured. You know it almost didn’t get done. I had such a hard time finding all the right elements. Thanks for dropping by I really appreciate it.
I love your fall vignette! I love decorating with pine cones!
Me too T’onna, They remind me of cool weather and cozy evenings by the fireplace. Thanks for stopping by.
I love this display!! And you make me laugh… “bling”… “squashy looking things”… you’re awesome. 🙂
Thanks Sarah… what would you call them? They don’t look like the classic pumpkins. Thanks for your sweet comment.
Well, I’d say you did pretty good with what you had. I recognize that butternut squash right off because I’m harvesting those right and left from our little summer garden this year. In fact, that’s the main thing that grew well. So I have a lot of those & I was just wondering the other day if I could do something “Fall-ish” with them. Glad to see you accomplished it.
I love those squashes, they sell them in the German store. They also make great shapes for ghosts if you are in the Halloween mood.
I love this display. Fall is my favorite time of year, and this post is a great inspiration for me to start making some center pieces. Thanks for sharing on Sunday’s Best.
Mine too Rhonda. There is nothing like a cool breeze and those autumn colors.
Hi Mary,
You’ve made a lovely fall vignette, here. 🙂 The colors and textures work nicely together, and the tray itself is just so pretty. Well done!
Catherine
Thank you Catherine. Considering there is no hint of fall till December in my area I am happy with how it turned out.
You did a great job with limited resources!
I just want a real fall, none of this fakery!!
It’s a fine fall vignette, but I can only imagine the struggles to find fall items from your local!
The struggle is real Laurie. I just went to the dollar store yesterday to find something for our upcoming project and there was nothing remotely fall like.
I love it Mary! It looks fantastically fall. Great job usuing what you had available. I especially like the use of the clear pitcher to hold some things vertically!
🙂 gwingal
That pitcher is really great for displaying things Nikki. I never use it for putting beverages in anyway so might as well use it as a decorating piece.
This isn’t faking it at all Mary, it’s very pretty. You’ve used seasonal elements and the painted tray is the perfect vessel. Thank you for sharing with us at Celebrate Your Story, and have a great weekend.
Thank you Sandra living in the land of the eternal sun has its drawbacks.
I definitely agree Mary! You did a wonderful job faking your fall vignette. I Love how it turned out. It speaks fall to Me! 😊
Yay!! That’s what I wanted to hear Linda!!
Your vignette looks wonderful Mary. My favourite part is the gold coloured pinecones. Our climates couldn’t be more different sigh lol
That is so true Leanna. I am still in the troughs of ninety degree weather and pining for fall and cooler air.
I think you did a great job Mary! Love how it came together. Here, we have an over abundance of fall décor in the stores. It’s unreal!! With this you can enjoy it as décor for a while and then enjoy the yummy squash for dinner. 🙂 Thanks for sharing with SYC.
hugs,
Jann
Thanks Jann. It is always such a challenge to come up with Halloween and Fall decor here. Our temps go from summer to a paltry winter with just rain. So it is not at all fall inspiring.
It may be fake Mary but you still have made it look fabulous as usual 🙂
Thank you so much Amber. I love fall and it would be a shame to deny myself this little pleasure.
What a lovely Fall display! I love the glitz that the gold beads give it!!
Hugs,
Deb
I too thought the gold beads were a nice touch!
