I know it's near Thanksgiving, but please indulge me in showing our white bedroom in the next few posts (though we're still doing finishing touches). Click here to see what it began as when we bought the home and scroll down. I'll start with our autumn/Thanksgiving decor for that room. I adore those white pumpkins, so I bought this on which was originally $20, on sale for $7. The $40 wreath was on sale for $12.00. I had extra bittersweet, so no cost. Yay! The vase is one of two I purchased eight years ago and the column is VINTAGE - over 20 years old. The wreath's the only color in our all white bedroom. Next month I plan on setting a small Christmas tree on the column. What about those bargains? P.S. There's a rumor around the cottage that there will be a give-away in December!!!!!!
Okay, did I happen to mention the pumpkin is an
Even up close, it looks absolutely real! Anyone else have a FUNkin? p.s. I'm linking to Colorado Lady Vintage Thursday.

I love the decor. That funkin is so cute. Nobody sells pretend pumpkins in Australia so I;m pretty impressed.

Love the white pumpkin.
I also have a funkin that I use all the time.
Thanks for stopping by!!!
Have a great Monday
I love the idea of a pumpkin that doesn't collapse in on itself if kept indoors!
Janean,
These pumpkins eliminate the fear of rotting when displayed inside. So far I've lost two real pumpkins from my display but all I have to do to replace them is go out back and pick some more. Don't you love when retailers are in such a rush to push onto the next season that THIS seasons decor goes on clearance?
Your Friend,
Deborah
Oh it looks so pretty. I have never heard of the Funkin before. I can't wait to see all of your hard work.
Beautiful arrangement. I've never heard of a Funkin.
I have some funkins, lol. :) Love those. And the white is so whimsical and charming. Love it.
Everything is looking great!
I don't, but now I will look for Funkins! I do have several of the orange ornamental pumpkins that I use Sept.-Thanksgiving.

Can't wait to see all the beautiful pictures of your "new" bedroom! Looking forward to each post.
Hi Janean,
Love all your white...the cross and the pumpkin display is fabulous.
You must be loving the new look to your bedroom.
I put a pumpkin in under a cloche and it started to ooze something, so I think a funkin would be much better.
Happy week,
Hugs

I'm lovin' the white on white!! And the FUNkin name is perfect!!
You would never know it wasn't real if you didn't tell anyone. I saw some this year and meant to go back and pick them up at the After Halloween sale...and didn't make it...dratted job!! Anyway...the one you have is wonderful! hugs- Diana
Love your white funkin...I so thought it was real.
I do love white...white and more white.
Happy new week to you. xoxoxo
I LOVE the white pumpkin sitting on top of the beautiful fall arrangement. The new term seems to be that it makes it 'pop'.... well it really does pop.
Beautiful cross too!
I have a large ceramic pumpkin .....I love being able to use pretty items from year to year.
Looking forward to seeing more of the makeover.
You certainly put a lot of work into your bedroom. I love the all white. That one burst of color is just perfect.
On my silver and white Christmas tree last year, I had just two spots of bright red, a cardinal, and one oldtime Santa. It looked awesome, too.
I'm drawn to white too. I like the varying shades from white to cream to soft beige.
p.s. I'm having a cookbook giveaway at my blog if you're interested!
ooh-la-la so pretty!!
Love the white!
And that burst of colour!!
Deborah xo
I don't have one but it looks so real and so nice to decorate with.
Fabulous!!!
I enjoyed your post and visiting your blog.
That is one of the best looking faux pumpkins I've seen! I was thinking of getting some for my mantel, this season. I'll have to look around for the Funkin brand! Happy VTT!
Beautiful fall decorations. The white pumpkins are my favorite, along with the iron cross. Everything is lovely.
Ann
Beautiful...I love the white decor...so pretty. Happy VTT!
Beautful!! Anxious to see the tree ;)
*hugs*Deb
Beautiful fall vignette! Don't you just love funkins?
Hi, it all looks so gorgeous, especially because of the great deals.
Thanks for visiting with me. I repurpose the keys into jewelry, mostly necklaces and some earrings. Always fun:)
This is looking wonderful and a bit of fun thrown in. Very lovely and festive.
My sister's name is Janeanne so your name caught my attention. It is nice to meet you.
Hugs, Jeanne
