fall fireplace

This is our fireplace, all gussied up for fall. It's actually pretty plain, but I kinda like it this way. I'm waiting to hang the perfect mirror above our mantel. I scored a really cute circle mirror last week from a friend, but also like the idea of hanging this one to fill the horizontal space.

For now, in place of a more traditional mirror/pictures, I've piled my modest collection of vintage frames. (All dug out of my grandma's basement, Halloween cobwebs and all!)

The little paper flags are leftover from a photoshoot a couple weeks ago. Handy that they are the perfect length for festifying (any chance that's a real word!?) our fireplace.

And that immigrant trunk was our wedding gift from Jeff's parents. Vintage gifts are my fav! We originally parked it in front of the firebox for baby proofing purposes, but the look has grown on me!

I keep getting nudges for more house pics, and to be completely honest, I'm not very proud of how things are looking around here. We still haven't hung a single picture on the walls or opened one can of paint. Shame, shame! We've been really blessed to be keeping busy with photog gigs all summer/fall, but I'm also looking forward to some quieter inside days at home this winter to do some major decorating projects.
Congrats to this week's giveaway winner:

Happy Friday!
