More Autumn Candy!


I found beautiful chafing dishes, neglected and tarnished on the shelf of a dusty antique store. With a little polish and a lot of elbow grease, I have brought them back to life.

Halloween fast approaches, and I am all stocked up on candy for the trick-or-treaters who come to my door!

Autumn Fun!






I love autumn, even though it's still technically summer... and I have yet to see a single leaf cascade to the ground. This fall I have decided to use candy to add color to my decor. I love Halloween and the childish part of me loves the crinkling wrappers! Using my dishes and dessert trays, candy and lollipops add an inexpensive and bright touch to what might otherwise be a little dark for the lighting in my space. This style element is probably not advisable for longterm use in a home with small children! ;)
