fall decorations

i've been inspired by the blogging community to show off my fall decorations. not that its anything spectacular but its fun to see how everyone else gets ready for the new season. i didn't want to go overboard nor do i ever go overboard with halloweeny decorations. i like to keep it simple with fall items so it can stay up longer. here's my lovely mosaic:

i would have a butt load more pumpkins + mums by the front door if the pumpkin + mum farmers wouldn't charge so much for them. this is indiana after all. we have plenty! see my bucket on the front door? you can also see it here courtesy pure and simple. thrifty decor chick must be a southern living at home consultant. and the picture of the gourds along the window, i was just playing around in photoshop. i like how its kinda hazy looking. and i love my teddy bear dressed up like a mummy.
