Fall Touches on a Tiered Tray


 I'm joining the girls at Thoughts of Home for their Tiered Tray Extravaganza linky party.




Fall is a time of harvest. I think of apple picking, pumpkins, fall mums, bales of hay, cotton fields white with the harvest, falling leaves and cooler temperatures most of all.

The cotton fields near my home already have buds and by November will look like this field of cotton ready to be picked.



The goldenrod will soon be blooming.


 I love to see a field full of bales of freshly cut hay.


Spider lilies are my favorite fall flower.


We like to bring some of nature inside our homes in the fall and decorate with dried cones, flowers, nuts and the bounty of the fall harvest.

On my tiered tray I placed a mason jar of honey with the honeycomb from the Farmers Market, dried wheat, pinecones, dried indian corn, dried acorns, dried berries from a popcorn tree, dried naturally bleached hydrangeas and fabric pumpkins.

I'm happily awaiting that touch of fall in the air and the trees turning beautiful colors.  Have you started decorating for fall? I love the idea of decorating a tiered stand.

Blessings to you today. Living Thankfully, Bonnie

  1. Bonnie, this is beautiful. I love the natural things that you chose to use and the hydrangea is perfect too.

    I personally still do not own a single velvet pumpkin and just have to change that soon!

    Your tray is really pretty. The texture is perfect for a fall display.

    Thank you so much for joining us. :)

    Hey, how's it going in your kitchen?

  3. Bonnie, your tray is beautiful and I love the glimpses of the other fall touches that are part of your daily like.

    Seeing that field of cotton brings back memories. My father farmed cotton:)

  7. Seeing your photos makes me wonder if you live in S. Ga. We have a place there, and the cotton fields are plentiful. Love your pieces of nature on your tray. It looks lovely. I went back and checked out your kitchen remodel! WOW!!! It's gorgeous! I'm a new follower, don't know how I had missed your blog. It's beautiful!

  12. Bonnie, I love your tiered tray. I wanted to get in on that as well with the ladies but just no time. Right now my tiered basket has debbie cakes! LOL! Love all the pictures. While bow hunting over the past several days in Georgia I saw the cotton fields. So pretty. Hope you have a wonderful day my friend. Hugs and blessings, Cindy

  13. It's been awhile, Bonnie.Oh those cottonfields! Make me want to go home! I miss that! Maybe I can find some around TN. They've got to be here. Love the tiered tray and all the decor. I've got to get me one of those. May use it as a centerpiece.

  14. I love your pretty tiered tray Bonnie, it's the perfect way to introduce a bit of fall inside while it still feels like summer with September's heat and humidity. I've spotted goldenrod blooming along the roadside and I'm keeping my fingers crossed that fall will be here soon :)

  15. I love your tray with all the fall touches! Those photos make me think of my husband's Louisiana with cotton growing everywhere. Spider lilies are just the perfect because they are the one of the first to declare Fall is entering.

  16. Hi Bonnie! I'm visiting from Decor to Adore Tier Party. I love the cotton field photo. We attended the first football game at Mississippi State two weeks ago and I saw several fields in bloom. Mississippi Snow! Your tiered trays are wonderful reminders of the joys to come!

  18. How smart to use acorns on your tray Bonnie, they are a perfect fall touch with pumpkins and the pretty fall colored tea towel! I love that you mentioned cotton in your post, that is one of my favorite parts of fall in the South, driving by the fields of mature cotton, so pretty!

  20. Sorry I'm late visiting Bonnie. I love all of these things about fall too, the cotton fields we pass headed to the beach, the rolled hay and beautiful spider lilies. Your tiered tray is lovely and I am going to pin it for my fall inspiration. I need to get busy and do a kitchen vignette and maybe set a fall tablescape. Lovely post Bonnie..........hugs.
