Be Inspired #156 Here Comes Fall, Ready or Not!

Even though most of us are sweating out the last few days of high temps, we're looking forward to Fall. On my calender, Fall hits September 1, 95 degrees or not. Out come my boxes and tubs and I have the most fun I have all year. Here are some great links from you all last week, that are getting us in the mood for Fall.

Jeanine is the queen of Chippy Shabby. She does it like no one else! Each season and Holiday she transforms her Entry into a wonderful homage, filled with one-of-a-kind vintage treasures.



Here's her latest, the Fall Entry Vignette, filled with Fall goodness.
LOVE. THIS. OWL!!



Get a load of this corbel...
curves and a star. 
And an old wicker basket filled with yarrow.
perfect.


Jeanine, please come back and share your Halloween Entry Vignette!


I love birdies,
 so take a peek at this great headboard made from  pallet wood,
that Cathey with an E created.




Have you met Mary's Garden Lady, "Birdie"?
If not, you'll want to see how she was created over at





Kathleen has been Puttering with Pots
in her Garden House at Faded Charm.
(I can't wait to see more!)



Angela from Number 53 has a great eclectic style. 
This photo screams "magazine" to me,
and we all know I'm a sucker for an adorable kitty pic!




A garage sale find of a hinged whatchamacallit, became a
Folding Chalkboard from Denise on a Whim


and...

I have a fixation with anything "Pumpkin"
and Maria from ShopGirl has created these amazing
Pumpkin Spice Whoopie Pies with Cream Cheese Filling.
I can almost taste them.



thanks so much gals for sharing the inspiration!


Today's Sponsor is Sweet Magnolias Farm
where you'll find a new batch of Farm Fresh Fall goodies.
Hope you'll run by and check out Sara and Abby's
fun Etsy Shop filled with tea towels, table runners, and great
Farmhouse accessories.




And remember, we'll be in Fall Party Mode each week, 
so come by and share all the Fabulous Fall Fun
that you've been stirring up!


Each week I find great links that I'd love to feature, but you don't have a link back to the party. It just takes a minute to add it on to your post. So please have a link back to Common Ground within your post to be featured. Sorry if I sound like a broken record on this...

and while you're out, check out these other great Friday Parties.



OK, let's get the party started!
