    Gigi-

    I just GOOGLED: autumn chair pictures. Great ideas. I like the chair with the old seat that has a stencil/saying on it. I also like the three different colored chairs side by side. Very creative.

    Gigi:

    This is pretty basic I used for my "autumn" scene a couple of years ago. I just set a scarecrow on a chair with the autumn harvest around it. This may help. Good luck. Let's see what you come up with. LuAnn

    this probably is not what you had in mind, but I saw these great chairs that had been painted black and the top of the backrest and the seat had been decoupaged in this cool graphic, black and white pattern. Perhaps this will help. www.craftynest.com/.../2009/04/dscf3985.jpg

    LuAnn--I bet those gigantic mums were stunning! I love your scarecrow's purple shirt with the black cat on it! Great display!

    Connie and Maggie--What a great website. Loved the wooden chairs repurposed with fabric. The drilled pumpkins were wonderful---especially the one with the flowers! And who would have thought of glow sticks for safe pumpkin lighting?
