Needles-n-Pins Stitcheries: Vintage Fall Leaves 18 Sep 2018 2:54 PM (7 years ago)

Fall is in full swing in my part of the country. Leaves are turning now and the nights are getting a little crisp. Yeah....my favorite time of year. Speaking of leaves....I thought this week we would look at Etsy to find some vintage fall leaves that you might want to use for your fall decorating. :)





Over at EBS Vintage Home I found these really pretty leaded glass fall leaves. You could lay them on your table or even put them in a flower arrangement. 




These three bowls from BlueSeptemberRain would really work nice for nut and candy bowls and you can add them to your decorating. 





Look at this adorable little mouse that I found from Ihaveoldstuff. I am not partial to mice, but this guy is really cute. :)




And Fall decorating would not be the same without a nice fall scene painting on your wall. How about this one from Vintage Inquistor.




These are few fall leaf items I found. I just love all the fall colors and love sewing and decorating with them. 

Happy decorating!

Colleen :)
