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?!
Today’s Farmhouse Tour Friday is being dubbed a “special edition” because well, it’s special. With fall posts gearing up for the next couple weeks, I’ll be taking a short break from featuring a new farmhouse every week, don’t worry I promise they will be back soon. This is definitely NOT over 😉 So to wrap up the first edition of Farmhouse Friday Tours I wanted to wrap it up with 4 more farmhouse decor feeds I LOVE on Instagram!
Yes you read that correctly, I need your help! Right now I am in the planning phases for a new blog design. I have my layout picked, but with this change comes more options. Options to make this little site a bit more user friendly. When I first moved my blog over from blogger to wordpress picking a theme was so daunting. Without paying for a custom design, I really had to think about what I wanted my blog to look like. I was so desperate to get to a clean slate, and felt completely …
I am so excited to share today’s Farmhouse Tour with you!! I know I probably say that every week, but I truly feel that way each week!! I love farmhouse decor, and I think it’s so great to be inspired by so many. Each of us with our own flair and signature to a relaxed way of living. If you…

I finally pulled the trigger on getting a rug for our dining room. I’ve been contemplating different options for a couple years now. Yes YEARS, you read that right. If I’ve learned anything in design, it’s not to rush the process. Don’t make haste decisions that you aren’t 100% confident in. Not only can you potentially waste money, you waste time and energy on a piece that wasn’t meant to be, and it end up stunting your decision to make the right choice because you live with “good enough” for far too long. I actually had a completely different rug picked out for this room, so let me tell you why I ended up pulling the trigger on not only a different color than my original choice, but also a much bolder pattern!
I don’t consider myself a fashionista, but I do like putting outfits together that are go along with my style, and definitely have a soft spot for accessories. I think anyone who has met me would agree, I don’t dress for trendy, but I do like to be comfortably in style. So I put together a little mood board of one of my favorite fall outfits. August is usually about the time I start craving cooler weather so I can bust out my vest and scarves and boots!
Today I’m sharing the lovely Elisa Jobe. You can find her on IG @jobestead, or on her photography Facebook page HERE. I love Elisa’s style, and her taste is the perfect blend of a crisp neutral palette with farmhouse touches! Enjoy! Hi my name is Elisa Jobe. Thank you for taking a peek into my home!
We are currently renting and just moved in a couple months ago. We are planning and hoping to build our own farmhouse very soon! I love to decorate with a modern farmhouse feel. Rustic woods, rusty metals and chippy paint are my faves …
