I just received an exciting package in the mail – it’s a couple of magazines called Sideroads of Muskoka, which featured my dining room! Sideroads is a local Canadian magazine from Northern Ontario that has an emphasis on Muskoka and country style living. They liked my photos of our living room from last year’s Thanksgiving dinner which really fits perfectly with a cottage-themed magazine.
I decorated our table and chandelier in real autumn coloured maple leaves, picked with my daughter on our morning walk earlier that day. I have learned that keeping things simple always works and big impact can be created with very little. And I also learned that sometimes, FREE decorations are the best! Thank you nature for your beautiful bounty each season and thank you Sideroads for featuring my dining room in your magazine!
Do you like to decorate with things found in nature? Please share so we get more ideas ;)

Amazing! Congratulations! This really makes me miss my summer cottage (Georgian Bay though, not Muskoka…!) but I did this last year for my American-Thanksgiving-in-London :) You definitely executed it better as the leaves here just tend to turn brown and cling ot the trees… A neighbor’s Japanese maple and some squash saved the decor!
Ella says
Thank you Sydney.
London, Ontario or London England? as this is a very different vibe ;)
Thanks for visiting me.
