Fall Ideas Giveaway

* * THIS GIVEAWAY HAS ENDED * *

Thanks to everyone who linked up to our It’s Fall Y’all link party yesterday! SO many great Fall displays out there in blogland!! (FYI- the link party will be open ’til next Monday night, so there’s still plenty of time to link up if you haven’t done it yet!)

Yesterday, I mentioned that our link party was sponsored by our friends at Southern Accents, and that they made us the big, blue reclaimed wood art piece on our mantel…

…but what I didn’t tell you is that we asked them to make another one for us to give away,  too!

It’s red and white and chippy all over, and measures 27″ high x 42″ wide. We had fun photographing it above our neighbors mantel for this post last week…

Our neighbors Peter and Josette are awesome, and we’re so thankful they’re okay with our occasional crazy/spontaneous text messages, asking if it we can come over and photograph something at their house- LOL!

The day they gave us the green light to deck out their fireplace with the Southern Accents piece we’re giving away, we brought over a few bags full of Autumn-y goodness to create a Fall-themed display on their mantel.

We started by placing a orangey-red faux leaf garland (Hobby Lobby) on top of their mantel. Next, we sprinkled in some of our own silver and glass pieces, and filled in the gaps with acorns and pinecones…

Then after a quick “shop the house” search, we nestled in some of Peter and Josette’s old books, a few of their candlestick holders and candles, a little pair of antique glasses, and some of the beautiful feathers they’ve collected…

It was a quick little impromtu shoot, but we sure had fun playing with their fireplace that day!

______________________________

If you’d like a chance to win the Southern Accents wood art piece, just leave one comment on this post between now and Friday, September 30th (at 8am Eastern time) and we’ll randomly select a winner after that! Good luck!

PS- Thanks again to Southern Accents for creating such a beautiful piece of art to give away, and to Peter and Josette for letting us shoot the photos for this post at your house!

    Can we be neighbors? I’ll let y’all come over ANY time and spruce up my casa! Haha! Awesome giveaway! Good luck everyone!

    What I wouldn’t give to win this! Its perfect for our house. I printed the picture you posted yesterday showed it to my husband. He said that’s a lot of cuts! My daughter and I are headed to Home Depot today for some wood. He said he’d try and do those cuts. I said no guarantee I can distress the wood! So wish us luck 🙂 Thank You! Love you guys and really hoping you get that show on HGTV 🙂

    Well considering I started drawing up plans and measuring the wood pile as soon as I saw that last night – I’m already set to make my own, but I’d give my right arm for the real thing!!!!!

    I absolutely love both of these pieces of wood art! The borrowed mantel is beautiful, looks right at home there and I would be sad if I were your friends that I couldn’t keep it! What a great giveaway! Thanks for hosting and I sure do hope I win!

    Loving all the Fall stuff! I just installed a shelf in our house to act as a mantel too! This piece would be awesome to start my fall decorations!

    Your site has completely shifted my paradigm. I didn’t know that my dream kitchen could be so easily created & that I could do it myself. You’ve completely inspired me and I can’t wait to get started. Thank you for sharing your talents & sense of humor. You’re making DIY fun!

      I forgot to say how much I LOVE the give away. I would die to have something so awesome. (Fav. color too) We’re moving into a house soon & it is naked. : )

  39. Lindsey

    It is beautiful! I’ve been looking for something to lighten up my mantel. This could be that something 😉

  45. Kim in Iowa

    Oooh! I love that piece! It would look so great with my rustic red shelf and other accents in my house. Gotta get down south one of these years to check out all those great shops you talk about!

  46. Samantha Peterson

    This would look amazing in our recently purchased starter home that we are moving into this weekend! Your blog is my inspiration!

    Fall is my favorite time of year. Love the colors and items you brought in from outside to decorate this mantel.
