Autumn Decor






I really love finding small seasonal objects to place around the house through out the year. Since California doesn't really have four distinct seasons, I try to create distinct seasons inside. I bought this wonderful pumpkin terrine from Sur la Table about 10 years ago. The verisimilitude is fabulous, and it's my favorite piece to put on to my dining room table.

I've also collected a number of brass birds, leaves and candlesticks that I like place on mantles and tables. Ebay is an inexpensive source for all of these items.

My in-laws gave me this wonderful 1920's era Satsuma tea set a number of years ago. It has Japanese Maple motif on one side. I've seen this set, and other antique Satsuma patterns on Ebay as well. We frequently (and carefully) use the entire set for weekend brunch. Fortunately, I find my Tiffany "Bamboo" flatware is always in season!
