Fall's Bounty

A few weeks ago I shared an early autumn table setting and had filled this vintage tool tote with little live mums. Well, since then the little mums all faded away and the table setting has been cleared and put away, but Mule has been replenished with fall items until it gets updated again.






I bought a new roll of burlap and tied a loose bow.


Ignore the plates on the chairs. Geez, I forgot they were there.


This was just an easy change using what I had to fill Mule with fall's bounty.

Hope you enjoy a beautiful fall day.

If you had not pointed out the plates on the chairs I would have never noticed them. LOL Still love your Mule box. I think it would be beautiful regardless of what it held. Hope your weekend has been a good one. XXOO

Looks AWESOME - really love how it all works so nicely with your pretty table and chairs, too- matches beautfully.

Ya done Mule proud, ma'am (tips hat.)

"Mule" is looking quite fashionable all dressed up for Fall! I saw a large old tool caddy similar to yours the other day at an antique store and it made me think of yours.

Hi I'm Shannon! said...

You know what I love about those vintage-y tool boxes? They just transition so nicely from one season to another! Everything looks pretty in them :) Like the Fall filler very much.

You know what's funny, my favorite picture was the one with the plates on the chairs! (which I didn't see, because I was looking at the great shot at all that pretty color)

Shari @ turnstylevogue.com said...

Very nice. Nothing better than an old caddy filled with eye candy :)

AntiqueChase said...

had to scroll back and look for the plates on the chairs. I would never have noticed. :)

Wild Oak Designs said...

I didn't notice the plates either, however, they were not unacceptable, rather added to the picture.....
I love "Mule"...and of course, I have been following long enough that burlap has become requisite in most of my table decor! I used yesterday as part of the table decor!!
Thanks for the updates....

Hi Kim. That looks so pretty all dressed up for fall. I have a sort of "Mule" although it is a reproduction that I need to paint up. Always get such good ideas from you..Happy Sunday..Judy

Kathy @ Creative Home Expressions said...

Very pretty, Kim! I think Mule is really coming in handy for your centerpiece decorating. I didn't even notice the plates! : )

Vanessa said...

What a lovely arrangement! You are so talented and make it look so easy, but I know it's not! Hugs, Linda

Dawn said...

It looks just lovely and not Halloweenish. I like it when Fall decorating is more about the bounty than the Holiday's. Very tastefully done:)

Candy said...

Love your Mule. The colors are gorgeous and it brings fall inside.
