Fall Essentials

 I love fall when the leaves start to turn, you can start wearing puffer vests, and Starbucks begins to sell pumpkin spice lattes. However, the season is not complete without the right decor, like:

A RUSTIC BASKET

SOMETHING SWEET FOR A SNACK

A FALL AROMA

SIMPLE, ELEGANT TABLE PLACE CARDS 





STUNNING ORANGE FLOWERS

A FALL WREATH


A WARM, COMFORTING ADULT BEVERAGE

Wanna Buy it Wednesday: 2401 East 5th Avenue, Denver, CO

 2401 East 5th Avenue is a true work of art that captures the essence of historical architecture like few properties can. Once a church in the neighborhood of Cherry Creek North, this 109 year-old property has been converted into a luxurious home. The original beams, exposed brick, stained glass, fountains and landscaping have been maintained, while modern elements are incorporated throughout. New additions include a wine cellar, media room and chef's kitchen. With over 5,000 square feet, this residence is on the market for 2.295 million.
