Fall In Old Town

Hello Again From The French Hen's Nest,

Hope that you are enjoying this beautiful Fall weather.....a lot of rain lately, but that's alright, we need it. This is the perfect time of year to walk around Old Town Alexandria, one of my favorite places. So much to see if you're a lover of nature and decorating. No matter how many times I go, there is always something new to see, and it changes beautifully with the seasons. I was looking for a few homes that were decorated for Fall, and I found some that I'm going to share with you. Love the pumpkins in the transom window. Hope that you enjoy the walk.

Very simple and elegant

It's still so warm that the flowers are lasting

One of my favorite homes in Old Town, isn't it decorated beautifully?


This should be on the front of a magazine

Isn't this lovely, again simple and elegant

This is between the house above and the one below

Love the colors, they certainly say "Fall"

Pyracantha

I wouldn't have done this, but I'm loving the red on red

Hope that you've enjoyed a little of Old Town, there is so much more to see. And hope that maybe you got a few decorating ideas, I always do.

Till Nest Time,

Jeannie

More Pretties From La Bella Luce

Hello Again From the French Hen's Nest,

Just a few more pictures from La Bella Luce (the beautiful light), in Historic Clifton, Va. I've included a couple of photos of the main street in Clifton, and a couple of houses, just a small example of the old homes in the middle of Clifton. And also a view from the front of the shop.
To the right is a beautiful French bed, and notice the wall hanging above the bed, the middle looks like a decoration from the back of an old chair. Right?

Hope that you enjoy the photos.
