French Fall Accents at Round Top

Friday, October 3, 2014

You know it's fall at the Round Top Antiques Show in south central Texas by the date,
not by the temperatures.

Today Round Top, Texas was sunny and HOT; 90° was the high,
apropos for Round Top that has a population of ... 90!
That is, until the semi-annual Antique Show extravaganza
swells the population to over 100,000.
It's even been reported to have 200,000 visitors some years,
but Texas is known for its tall tales.



An antique wooden wheel barrow filled with multi-colored and multi-textured pumpkins sets the stage for the fall displays that enhanced all the antiques throughout the antique fair.  Of course, French antiques are what I was looking for.  


French Fall Accents 
 ... some ideas for decorating my own home... 


... white and pale green pumpkins are very chic (elegant)
in gris (gray) and white French urns...



... French pottery direct from a French brocante (flea market)
filled with yellow lantana flowers...



... a large vintage terracotta bowl worn from use... 



... earthy tones of Provence blend beautifully 
with all the yellow and orange fall couleurs (colors)...  



... yellow mums in French pots de cuivre (copper pots)...



... various sizes and shapes of French yellow ware could hold fall flowers... 



... pumpkins with French circular wooden architectural salvage... 



... a French gray urn filled with a pumpkin holding a bird's nest... 



... a grapevine wreath as the base of a pumpkin in a French urn 
with unusually shaped gourds in a wooden box... 



... a row of various French urns filled with purple fall flowers...



... a vintage original water couleur of Paris in the fall... 

Which of these is your favorite idea for fall decorating with a French accent? 
Did you learn a new French word?
