If you are like me, and you don’t necessarily gravitate towards big seasonal changes in your decor, than this post is for you. To decorate for fall, I may not be running for the first orange pumpkin I see, or orange plaid throw blanket, there are steps I take to refresh our living room for fall. Today I’m going to share with you some of my thought process that goes behind how I refresh our spaces as the seasons change.
If you are an avid reader here, than I can pretty much guarantee we have one thing in common. We are passionate about home. Yes, yes of course home decor, but not just home decor, all things home!
Have you noticed a shift in the home decor this past year? I sure have, and I am loving the outcome. Although I tend to stick to a more classic approach in design, there are definitely a few new trends on the top of my list to incorporate into my decor, and some I’ve already started to bring in! Today I’m going to share with you some design trends I’m loving right now, and a fun little video to go along with it!
The dust has settled. You know that gets kicked up with kids going back to school and summer ending. Well maybe it’s just the last bit of beach sand being shaken out from our car, but life finally feels like it is in somewhat of a routine, and the air is crisp with fall. I’m teaming up with my friends at bHome to share a little bit more of fall around our home.
I think adding layers to your space is one of the best things you can do to really make it feel cozy and inviting. Whether you are layering rugs, or window treatments for adding texture, or a whole bunch of throw pillows on your couch, your creating an atmosphere that everyone is sure to enjoy. I am so excited to share with you today that I have teamed up with Wayfair for another series of Insider Inspiration. Over the next 6 weeks you’ll be able to catch these videos I’ve been putting together, where I talk about inviting spaces, what’s trending now, and my love for home decor. Just to name a few.
I’m loving the cooler tones used for fall. It was something I started implementing in last years fall decor. Just to clarify, there is nothing wrong with bringing out orange in the fall. But I crave a more subtle, neutral look. I know it’s not for everyone and that’s ok. I love that we aren’t all alike in our taste. I pick patterns that have a timeless feel to them like houndstooth and herringbone and plaids. They still feel like fall, just not the expected color palette.
This year has been about simplifying. Not adding more, but really emphasizing on special details. It’s easy to feel the need to add a ton to your decor when decorating for new seasons, however I chose to make subtle transitions to gradually add fall into our living room. We are back for another round of Farmhouse Holiday Decor Series. Today we are sharing our Living Rooms decorated for fall.
Sometimes the feeling of having to decorate your entire house for fall at once can feel daunting. Like this overwhelming task you’d just rather not start. I like to take it one area at a time. When I’m really struggling for motivation, sometimes just creating a simple fall vignette, will then spill out into the rest of my home and transition my decor from summer to fall. So today I’m sharing a cozy corner from our living room, and easy fall vignette you can create in less than 10 minutes.
A fun fact about myself is before we had kids I used to be a bartender at a local steak house. I loved the rush and busy-ness of working in a restaurant, and bartending was definitely an exciting factor of that. Plus it was really a lot of fun, and not being a big drinker prior to that, I learned a ton. From how to mix different liquors and different drink recipe staples. This wasn’t a drink that we served at the restaurant, but stemmed from all my experience I gained there. Today I’m sharing my Fall Cider Cocktail Recipe, Who’s thirsty?!
