Okay friends are you ready for picture over load?!
Soo do you remember my make-shift mantle that was all decorated for spring/summer with a very nautical feel?!
well we have a new feel—a fall feel going on now!
And I think I am really enjoying this new look.
I love change.
(if you want the tutorial for how I made my fall sign–click here…. I used dollar canvases and up-cycled them!)
I love these pedestal bowls—I hoard them.
Seriously.
I buy them up from thrift shops like nothing!
I like them white and light buttt they got hit with black spray paint for the season.
I had some fun making the wreaths also!
I made all 3 for less than 5 dollars!
They are fabric wrapped, then tulle wrapped.
Then I added some fun fabric flowers and vintage buttons!
annnd my new favorite fall decor item EVER—pheasant feathers!
I love them!
I love how they frame out the wreath and everything on the mantle.
Andd how they add to a collection of white pumpkins.
what do you think?
I can honestly say that I didn’t spend more than 10 dollars on my fall decor—which makes me even more excited than anything!
I even used some burlap coffee sacks to add to the decor.
Kind of fun right?!
What do you think about my fall love for pheasant feathers?!
I am linking up to a few of these wonderful link-y parties!!!
I hope you are planning to link up at this weeks Crafty Scrappy Happy party—starting this week on Wed. night!

Ahh this is so cute! You are so inspiring, even more so because you hardly spent anything! Great job
What an absolutely gorgeous mantle! You have done the most beautiful job adding the perfect amount of details to it. I love your style & adore your cute home!
Super creative and original. No cookie cutter here. Nice job!
Beautiful !!! As always….loving the wreaths and of course everything else. You go Jamie !!! Hugs
Ahhh, I love your new Fall mantle. I am going to work on mine this week too. I love the feathers! Also, the window & doors on either side make such great backgrounds for different items that can continue to change. So fabulous Jaime!
Looks pretty awesome to me.
My fireplace sits at an angle like yours in the corner of the room, and it makes such a statement each season. Great place to show off your creativity! Yeah, I help it along….
Love it!! =D
I know you're going to link those wreaths up to the door decor challenge, right?? Pretty pretty pleeeease?
Wow,super cute wreaths!

Just wonderful, Jaime! The feathers are AWESOME – now just clear out your patient list for tomorrow and head on down and treat my home to some of your talent, mmmmkay? love ya, girl…
love the feathers in the bottles and the straw peaking out from the box under the burlap. very pretty jaime
Love it!
I'm loving the red!
These are beautiful!! Great inspiration! Makes me wish I had a mantle.
I can't believe I've never seen your site before — I just saw you on the Gunny Sack! I'm your newest follower & Facebook liker! Have a great day! 
xo, Reannah
You totally nailed the Fall look PERFECTLY! Those wreaths are AWESOME!! Can't believe they were less than 5 bucks-you rock!
Absolutely L.O.V.E. everything you did to the mantle. Before you even mentioned it later in your post, the pheasant feathers are the first thing I noticed – how funny (great minds think alike!). I'm working on my mantle this week but I'll doing Halloween theme first, then move to a more traditional fall/thanksgiving theme for November. Isn't there a Mantle Makeover linky party somewhere?
I love your style! I wish we could do seasonal decorating together some time, I'd love to incorporate your amazing ideas into mine.
So festive! Love it

This looks beautiful! I love all the burlap and the fabric on the wreath is gorgeous too! Super job….thanks for sharing.

Take care, Laura

I loved your nautical mantle so much that I would have been hesitant to change it seasonally. WoW! I like it just as much or more! Can't wait to see what you do for Christmas.
Ack! Every time I find what I think is my favorite element in your fall mantle, I see something else that I adore. This is so fun, without being fussy! Thanks so much for sharing.
