Pumpkins and Cats and Nightlights

As you can tell by now, I love to collect things.....and this week I'm sharing my nightlight collection. They are all throughout the house in every room, hallway and bathroom. Here's just a few of my favorites......of course I had to get the seasonal ones out and show you for Halloween........<grin>

This is for my Tulip, which is my black siamese cat....just couldn't resist this one!

Mr. Pumpkin is smiling in the kitchen.......

The bird artist makes it's home in our family room, just inside a window that overlooks our patio, where all the birds like to come and sit and sing in the morning.

This little beauty graces our guest bath off our family room area. I bought it when I first moved to Atlanta. It just seemed to ooze southern beauty.

Being raised in horse country in KY, I definately needed a nightlight to represent my love of horses.

Ms. Teacup is in my living room, right next to the chair from my Mom's house. Mom always enjoyed a good cup of tea everyday.

My leopard one is happily perched in my laundry room....it just makes me smile every time I do laundry.

And my maroon one, is in my dining room.....it just needed to be in a classy room.

So.......this is just a partial glimpse at the nightlights in my home. I just can't resist them! Now tell me, what do you collect?

Favorite Fall Comforts

Pumpkin lattes, pumpkin candles, mums, lighted jack-o-lanterns........are just a few of my favorite Fall things.......oh, and I almost forgot.......candy corn too.......yumo............!

I get that cozy and warm feeling when I see the first hints of Fall....

Love the mums.....purple, yellow, rust, white........all of them......the pansies too.......

And my all-time favorite candle.....Pumpkin Spice......burning in the kitchen, always adds to the enjoyment of the cooler weather......just makes you want to nest a little, doesn't it?????

Now my Mr. Pumpkin sits proudly on top of my fridge......blinking and winking at me while I cook dinner......<grin>. I bring him out each year for some Halloween fun.....
