The rundown in cheap-ish decorating:
The pumpkin/black-eyed susan pillow made by me using a gift certificate to purchase wool=FREE
The wool acorn, a gift=FREE
The basket, a goodwill find, painted and then distressed=$2
The quilted square, something I bought long ago--I turned it over so just the backside was showing giving me something neutral to work with--I'll count it as free since I'm "using what I have"
"Long Island Cheese" Pumpkin=$2.50
Faux bittersweet, cut apart=$2.99
Grapevine garland, grabbed a handful from storage, more "using what I have"
The banner, scraps of burlap, quilting binding, and a sharpie marker I had laying around=in the $5 range
Oh, and the dresser everything is sitting on, $20 on craigslist, and some black paint and "nickel" spray paint I had laying around--
Having an area that makes my heart so happy every time I walk past? Priceless. ;o)If you're interested in looking at some beautiful fall decorating, head here.

that wool acorn is super cute, but i love how you descibed your space. i don't have a mantle, or a large shelf used as a mantle, so i decorate what i call my "flat expanses". you do what you gotta do, right?
I love it all, Janna!! :)
I love the wool felt pillow. I am so wanting to try this. Beautiful!
You could totally have an H_G.T-V show. ..well, that is IF you had an extra 24 hours every day. ;) LOVE IT! I'm so inspired by your adorable crafty and awesomely-decorated house. Thanks for sharing. ;)
