I am soooo in love with those peacocks. They are gorgeous and really fit your autumn decor. Love the keys on the satin ribbon...nice touch!
ReplyDeleteHi Chari, You know how much I am in love with your mantel!! You have done a fabulous job decorating for Fall. I can't wait to see what you do for Christmas.

Everything is gorgeous...so artfully done. Would you describe this style as "Old World"? or is there another name for it.
ReplyDeleteJust beautiful...

Chari, I love coming to look at all your creativity. You've got the touch girl! I think I've told you that before. You gave me some inspiration...I have a set of skeleton keys on my secretary beside my bed, never thought of putting a pretty bow on them. I can just see a satin plaid Christmas Bow! Thank you, enjoyed looking.
ReplyDeleteEverything is beautiful. I am having serious chair envy -- that pair is perfection!

Chari, your table in the front window is decorated so beautifully. I love how you change things up on it and it's always such an eye catching and stunning display. Your fireplace is exquisite. My oh my, it really is beautiful. I love everything about it. Fabulous. Thank so much for linking to TTT. Hugs, Marty
ReplyDeleteSo beautiful, as usual!

ReplyDeleteOh I meant to tell you those peacocks I had about 50 years ago one of my first wall art ha ha!!
ReplyDeleteThe colors you decorate with are just perfect for this season...and the way the sunlight comes in is wonderful! I wish I could capture this with my camera! Hugs! ♥
ReplyDeleteBeautiful -your certainly are blessed -esp with the darling acorns :-0
ReplyDeleteIt's just gorgeous!!! I love everything from mantel to hearth to side table. I was going to say that the hat box with books is my favorite part, but honestly, I kept liking more and more shots. I really love your fall decorating, Chari.
ReplyDeleteThis is what I love... lushness. Autumn is a lush season, and you have really captured that, Chari! I can't get over your mantle! Filled with autumn's bounty! And the other decorative touches are equally lush and neat. Enjoyed seeing this. Those keys are fab as is the hatbox... and then I see other things that are equally neat. I think this might be my favorite post, but I also love your DR posts so it's a tossup. I thorougly enjoyed looking at all the pics. THANKS!
ReplyDeleteXO,
Sheila :-)

ReplyDeleteLove the mantel so beautiful , it inspires me.
ReplyDeleteHi Chari! Oh, my goodness - there you go again making the most beautifulness! Everything is gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteBe a sweetie,
shelia ;)
Chari, may I first say that your fireplace without any gilding would be utterly fantastic, but the lily surely has been gilded! This is absolutely fantastic. I have had a feast for the eyes. The colors are so rich and vibrant and the textures so amazing. I love all of the wine colored grapes and the birds. Wow. Thanks for sharing at Tabletop Tues.
ReplyDeleteHi Lady, Autumn has certainly been honored, the mantle is fantastic! We've been acorn gathering over here too!
ReplyDeleteOh Chari, your living room is so bountiful and beautiful. I love everything you have done. You are just so good at this. You know I love the peacocks too, don't you?...Christine
ReplyDeleteHi Chari! I am just loving your mantel. You have decorated so beautifully! I just love the way the grapes drape across the leaves, the colors... well just everything!! The hatboxes with the leather books looks perfect! Love your table at the front window too! Hugs my friend!!
ReplyDeleteOh what a gorgeous room that is Chari!
ReplyDeleteThat fireplace mantel looks just outstanding!
You really did an amazing job on it!
It's so unique and so lush and so stunning!
You rock girlfriend!
Big Hugs,
Cindy
Hi Chari, beautiful, as usual! I always love pheasants and I love yours! And those orangey candles on the top are so pretty and add a nice touch of color. You really know how to make the display full without being messy. I'm working on that. But I will bet that your favorite thing on this post are the little acorns gathered with love! I can tell by the way you put them under the cloche and surrounded it with feathers! Linda
ReplyDeleteOh my goodness, Chari, what an incredibly beautiful blend of warm and rich colors and textures. I love your entire living room and the mantel and table top. There are so many lovely little surprises, like the keys, the grapes, the leather books, and so much to enjoy looking at. Thank you so much for sharing your photos with us. :-)
ReplyDeleteBlessings,
Susan @ CluckleBees
It's so BEAUTIFUL, and so Lavish! I don't know that I could pull that off, Chari, but I Love it! And I'm absolutely enchanted by the pheasant feather arrangement. Wow.
ReplyDeleteGORGEOUS!! STUNNING!! Superb!Love the addition of grapes~
ReplyDeleteBlessings,

I love taking tours of homes. Thank you for opening yours. It's so beautiful and rich! I especially like the vignette in front of the window!
ReplyDeleteSheila
Chari, Your whole living room not just your mantel is beautiful. You inspire me everytime I visit. I want to get up right now and start ripping things apart and redecorating. Have a blessed week.
ReplyDeleteSandy
WOWEEE KAZOWEE! This is gorgeous my friend. I can't believe how gorgeous this is. I kept looking at the pictures and thinking...oh my gosh this is over the top GORGEEEEEOUS! You really have put things together in a stunning way. Most of us clump...yes clump things together in hopes that it looks good. Your clumping looks like artwork! Big smile. I hope I have used enough adjectives to let you know how impressed I am with your decorating! Bigger smile.
ReplyDeleteBlessings,
Debbie
Such loveliness! I especially adored the metal peacock. Everything is just perfect and ooooh, that mantel!!
ReplyDeleteDeanna :D
Always lovely in your home. Love to see your pictures. My favorite today is that hat box. Loooove how you used it. I always leave here with inspiration and warmth.
ReplyDeleteThank you for sharing, Chari. I wish you a beautiful day my friend.

Hi Chari,
ReplyDeleteAbundance is definitely the word for your gorgeous autumnal decorating! Loved the shot of the old keys tied with ribbon -- suitable for framing!
Kindest regards,
Bill
"Oh Chari" Autumn at your home is SO BEAUTIFUL!!! I LOVED your mantel, and those metal Peacocks are fantastic(I'm going to be keep an eye out for a set, LOVED THEM)! My very favorite thing "IS", your purple chairs and how the color POPS with all the fall colors. I JUST LOVE IT!!!
ReplyDeleteHugs to you,
Donna
Everyone agrees, stunning mantle, Chari! Absolutely stunning!
ReplyDeleteThe room is so warm and welcoming and beautiful. You did a fabulous job!
Love your new blog look too! Fabulous! Beautiful header!
Happy Fall!
Cheers!
Tina
Everything is just gorgeous.
ReplyDeleteI have always loved the bust of the girl on your table in front of the window. I've looked and looked for a large one (story of my life, searching for a larger bust !!) :)))
Now I have her on my mind again so I just may go "looking" today. :)
Your vignettes are beautiful. Still loving that mantel. Can't wait to see what you do with it at Christmas.
ReplyDelete- The Tablescaper
Dear sweet Chari, Your Autumn displays are incredible as always! Everything you do gives me so much inspiration! For instance the gorgeous pheasant display, and table rich looking table runners, and now I see a few more beauties I'm in love with! The hearth display with the fruit motif hat box oh my! I LOVE it! ... and the gorgeous vignette in front of the window with that stunning arrangement in the pedestal vase, LOVE, LOVE, LOVE it too!! I have to ask... Did you put that together yourself or did it come that way?? It really is just gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteBig hugs! Sherri:)
Thank you for this clever and useful living room design idea.
