Shabby Chic Fall Mantel

Well, darlings this is just a small start...the poor gourd is the only thing "fally" about this mantel.
I must pull out the pink and white pumpkins...

Well, my darling Shabby loving friends...I have been
redoing my mantel for fall...which do you like?
The brown frame or the Shabby roses...or should I paint the brown frame?
(Update...the brown frame has been up for one day and at 11pm tonight I restrained myself from painting it pink or white...send me to "Shabby Rehab" cause this chic is addicted!)
Giggles!

I adore the pinks...maybe some sparkly pink pumpkins with this one!
How do you do "fall" shabby?I also adore painting thrift store pumpkins pink and white!
Well my darlings it was 95 degrees here so maybe it is too early to think of fall,
I can't help it! I love this time of year!!

    Well, Olivia, I like white frames so I guess I would paint it. Love the pink chair and the shabby punkins! I don't like orange; white and pink, much nicer. Have a wonderful weekend, my friend.

    Blessings,
    Sandi

    Olivia, I think your mantle would look even more beautiful with the frame painted white..........white and shabby is just so Olivia!

    Hi Olivia,
    I love the pink, and am having a hard time even thinking about moving on to fall...
    I can't save you from the white paint, I can't save myself, I wanna paint everything! haha:-)
