Looks pretty. I haven't even begun to think about decorating for fall.
Thanks for stopping by the Quimper Blog and leaving a comment. I really appreciate it! ~ Sarah
It's beautiful Frenchy! Love it!! To me, decorating your mantle is the beginning of fall...everything else just kinda falls into place once the mantle is set!

What a quick change and it is lovely. Beautiful warm colors.
The mantel itself is quite stunning. Where did you get it ? I would like the same.
I wish you a very nice weekend.

What a beautiful mantle! Thanks for showing it in stages as you added layer upon layer of Fall decor. I love the birdhouse, books and pheasant .. love it all. Thanks for sharing, *Becca*
Your mantel is gorgeous. I love the fall leaves and the pretty picture of the pumpkins. The topiaries with the birdhouse and the rooster are just perfect. Very pretty. Thanks for linking to TTT. Hugs, Marty

Just stopping by from Nifty Thrifty! Your mantle looks so nice for fall! I have started decorating for the season as well. The weather is starting to put me in the mood!
Gorgeous! As always of course! I love to craft and bake and do home improvements, but I'm TERRIBLE at decorating. What to come over and help once my remodeling is done? Your just amazing! Thanks for linking up to Topsy Turvy Tuesday's.
Very Pretty! The carved wood mantle is awesome!
What a beautiful Mantel and I love the way you have it decorated for Fall. It was amazing to watch the transformation in stages, layer upon layer. Thanks for much for sharing!
LOVE it! I am a bit partial to roosters.....lol

That looks wonderful!! I saw this on Between U & Me :)
Your mantel is just perfect for the fall season. It's nice to see the steps of your display too. TFS.
What a great idea - to show the decorating progress/process of the mantel. I have a leopard print side chair next to my fireplace too. Great minds think alike. :) but I am really crushing on that mirror to the right. Love it.
Thanks for linking this to Motivated Monday.

This is absolutely gorgeous! I L-O-V-E- it!

Gorgeous! Love all the different textures and heights to your mantle. Thanks linking up another great idea to A Crafty Soiree! Please join us next time too!
Very cute mantel! Thanks for linking up for Friday Favorites!
A perfect Fall mantel...so many wondrous items on there. Lovely.
Okay, I'm officially jealous of stone fireplace and that 'beefy' mantel! I have the wimpiest mantel on the planet. Guess how deep it is? It is a whopping 4" deep (I think that includes the beveled edge, which can't hold anything of course). Almost NOTHING fits on my mantel, even garland falls off! So every year I try to get creative with what goes on the wall above the mantel. But I dream of a fireplace such as yours. Thanks for sharing!
