As summer comes to an end, and fall is here, school has started, the weather
SHOULD be cooling off, and the days get shorter. We begin to spend more time
indoors and look forward to the activities and holidays of the season. If your
home is not prepared for the fall season that is now upon us, hurry in to
Victoria Station before it is too late. The best home décor store in Osage Beach has a number of fall pieces to help your home get in the spirit of the
season.
The Fragrance of Fall
With
the change of our daily activities, spending less time outdoors in the pool and
on the lake and less time grilling outside, make your space comfortable inside.
What makes a home feel more inviting than it smelling good? With a new
shipment of decorative tart warmers and corresponding fragranced wax squares
for melting, you can introduce the yummy smells of Cinnamon Hazelnut Latte,
Apple Pie, Warm Cinnamon Buns, and everyone's favorite, Snickerdoodle, into
your home! Just break off a square of the highly fragranced wax and drop
it into the warmer, the light then warms the wax, releasing the aroma of the season.
The warmer is also an accent lamp. These warmers come in multiple
colors and designs, including the warm fall color in Crackled Amber glass, a
new glass and metal design that looks like a nautical lantern, a silver mercury
glass design that would look great with many neutral interior decor styles.
A couple of other favorites have been a neutral pearl glass, and a pieced
sea glass warmer, that complement the nautical blues and teals that are so
popular in lake houses and lake condos. New and just arrived are 3 styles
of the smaller plug-in design, that are great for use in a kitchen or bathroom,
plugged directly into a socket, keeping extra clutter off the counter. Candle
warmers have changed, they now look good, as well as being functional! These
warmers and wax melts also make GREAT gift options during the Christmas holidays.
Fall Decorative Items
The
favorite traditional sights of fall include pumpkins, fall leaves, gourds,
scarecrows, turkeys, and pilgrims! This year we have a great selection of
pilgrims, and a couple of 15" tall pilgrim pairs at GREAT prices, under
$20! Another favorite this year is 4-7" pumpkins in assorted colors
and sizes, with lightly glittered finished, and flat options. Well, not
flat, but wide and thin. These are great in window sills, bookcases, and
ledges where depth is a challenge! With many of these being in the $3-5
range, they have been a hit! If pumpkin orange is not your decor color,
we have a variety of pumpkins in neutral colors, too! A very classy
black and taupe combination is not your average pumpkin for your home!
In the Kitchen
Yes,
with the days getting shorter, and cooling off, we spend more time indoors in
the kitchen. In addition to the other traditional fall decor, we have a
large selection of placemats and napkins to accent your decor and add warmth to
your table. With the extra time at home, who isn't looking for new recipe
ideas! We have always carried a selection of cookbooks with beautiful
covers and pictures of recipes on every page.
Illuminated Pictures
Lit pictures have been another great addition to fall decor. A standard favorite is a jack-o'-lantern, that is lit behind, giving the appearance of candles inside, just like those from our childhood that have been a long time tradition for Halloween. No messy cleaning out the pumpkin with these! Another favorite this year, is an "old" barn with jack-o-'lanterns glowing in the windows and pairs of eyes peering out of other windows, with a gorgeous orange sunset behind. These are spooky-cute. They light up with AA batteries, and have a timer feature as well.
Christmas Season
Shhhhh,
don't say it out loud, but… Christmas is coming! Yes, I said it. We
have been working hard behind the scenes, since the beginning of the year
getting ready for Christmas, that work is now taking place IN the store!
We have been displaying Christmas items since the end of June (and have
been selling them also!). If you haven't been in last few weeks, you
won't recognize it, as the Christmas trees are going up, and the new Christmas
displays are getting set. We currently have the best selection of
Christmas items that we will have all season. If you are needing gifts for nieces,
secretaries, teachers, sororities, grandchildren, friends, and employees, now
is the time to make a trip to Victoria Station!
Don't
miss out on the fresh baked cookies, brownies, and fresh brewed iced tea every
afternoon from 2-4pm on Monday through Friday!
