Welcome to my Fall Home!
The Foyer got a big makeover, because I had nothing! I moved this small table and created a warm and welcoming vignette. I found this beautiful table, lamp, and small box at HomeGoods.
Fall in the Family Room
I
usually start by changing out my throw pillows. That's the quickest and
easiest way to create a new look without too much out of pocket. In my
case I decided I was going to give myself a budget of $150 to $200, buuuut
I only spent $135. I found this beautiful pillow combo on the left at Kohl's - except
the owl pillow, HomeGoods! - on mega sale! One pillow was only $3.29!!! I
was so overjoyed I think the people in the store thought I was crazy!
;-)
I wanted it to feel cozy and warm. After I hung the drapes and simply put in the new pillows, it was amazing how different the room felt! The kids had complained that the house didn't feel like a home and now they're all smiles! That's exactly why I do this. Creating my nest for my family is my ultimate goal!
This cozy orange throw is a family favorite! We are all fighting for this spot!
I tied my simple glass vases with burlap and ribbon and adorned it with a cute group of acorns to give it that fall touch!
I love the new drapes from PB, they are the Emory Drape in Sable and the
Kendra Sheer in brown. I paired them together for more dramatic look!
Looooove!
The Mantel
The Mantel
I used birch wrapped small buckets with succulents on the mantel to add some natural texture.
I wish these could be real, and soon I will have beautiful pick of fall leaves and branches. For now stems of fall picks, grasses and branches from Michael's will have to do. I try to pick things that look realistic, so it does look like I went out and collected these from nature!

Teal burlap ribbon was used to create color and texture on the wine table. Tucked in a fall pick I made using these few items:
Fall Feast for Four
Rusty orange fabric and more teal burlap ribbon were the perfect touch to create my fall table. I love the owl salt and pepper shakers and cute fall mugs that read "Thankful", which is what I truly am! Both were Better Homes and Gardens from Walmart!
I tied cute little paper gift tags to each of our pumpkins with our Initial. I layered different placemats to give it more dimension and texture.
I never throw away jars! I use them for small arrangements and they make great container's for things like silverware. A sprig of leaves tied with jute string brings fall to my "set the table centerpiece".
Fall in the Dining Room
The new drapes make the room! I was so happy they turned out as good as I hoped!
I wanted to keep it simple and casual in the dining room, so I used natural textures, like linen and burlap, with natural wood for casual fall gatherings with friends.
I use these fall picks throughout the rooms to add a quick touch of fall foliage.
Well that's it! I hope you enjoyed my fall tour and I inspired you to bring in a little fall to your home!
Y'all come back!
