Fall Decorating with Bittersweet

I ordered some bittersweet vine last week and it arrived yesterday.
I have to say the order did not have long vines but I adapted and made lots of arrangements in jars instead!
I don't know if it will root in the water but I hope so. 
I don't know if it will even grow here but I'd sure like to give it a try!
I'm still puttering around here doing some Fall decorating but here's a few pics of what I did yesterday.


I have three blue Mason jars that I just love! So I put those on the windowsill.
It's pretty bright to take a good picture but I wanted you to see the whole view.

Here's a close-up.....much better!


I also used some of the little scraps that were left for small 
arrangements....like this one on the stove..


That's it for now....
We're having perfect Fall weather here and it's just wonderful to have the windows open wide!
I hope you are all getting a break from the heat as we are!

I'll show you some more pics another day.....

Those trays are fabulous. I pinned them. Hope you don't mind. Where did you order the bittersweet from? I don't think I can even buy it in California.

Your home is such a dream canvas! I too love bittersweet, but I am still finding dried berries around my fireplace from using it last year! BTW - I would follow Douglas Hunts advice (from Hometalk) and NOT plant any around your house. You can take what he says to the bank!

If you read this far back, I would love to know where you ordered the bittersweet....love the window picture with the blue jars!! Every year I wish I could get some, but have no idea how to achieve that!! Did it root in the water??
Many thanks for any information!
Blessings,
