Silver Glass Gourds, Perfect for Fall

Wednesday, October 3, 2012

Antiqued glass gourds and pumpkins have been popping up in all my catalogs this year and I am loving the look.  They would be so pretty on a mantle or sideboard mixed in with other fall accessories.

I especially like the look of these Pottery Barn Antique Mercury Glass pumpkins, but they add up fast if you want more than one or two.  Although, every year I like to add a few nice things our growing collection of  Fall and Halloween decor so that rather than getting only disposable items, I’m making purchases that will last throughout the years.  Maybe this year, these will be the ones?

I also think Wisteria has a pretty cute look-alikes, and at three for $39 the price tag is a little easier to justify.

What do you think of this decorating trend?  Do you like the glass pumpkins or do they leave you wishing for the real thing?

Hubby and I were at Pottery Barn this weekend and were looking at it. As much as I like it, I am not keen on adding stuff for storage post season. Very nice though.

It’s a very classic and refined look. I love it in a dining room.

I love these glass pumpkins. I think they add a touch of elegance to Fall decor and I am totally on board with this trend.

I love these! Very pretty. I would actually feel better about getting these because I feel wasteful buying pumpkins– growing up in the suburbs we would compost them but in New York there’s nothing to do but throw them away.

I love the pottery barn; I was there last weekend and picked up one of their beautiful vases. Check out my fall dining table display.
