Fall is my favorite! I love walking past my dining room and seeing it all decorated for fall! 🍂I enjoyed using neutral colors, like sage, creams and whites this year because it blends well with my everyday home colors.
It Feels Like Fall!
I’m so excited to share with you my living room and entry way all decorated for fall! The neutral colors in their signs, tags, and tray - set the tone for the entire look! I mixed and matched different styles and textures of pumpkins that I had from years past, and then bought the small white pumpkins and florals to stick in in between the pumpkins.
Decorating was made easy because I was able to decorate with gorgeous decor from Krumpetshomedecor.com. The wood signs and tags, wood stand up pumpkins, the tall harvest sign, all came from Krumpets.
To decorate my entry way, I wanted to keep the look of the living room and make the house flow. So I added more neutral colored pumpkins and this Thanksgiving sign from Krumpets.
I carried the same neutral colored theme in the dining room using the same pumpkins and florals.
This little cozy corner I changed up from neutral sages and creams and added a few pops of violet and mauve colors to give it a more romantic feel. I wanted to soften the look to match the words on the wood sign. Isn’t the quote on this sign the sweetest? It’s by Devanie Adams, who made the sign.

Design Tips for an Easy Thanksgiving Tablescape
With Thanksgiving right around the corner, lots of folks are already thinking about decorating their Thanksgiving table. Putting together a tablescape is one of my favorite things! But first, what is a "tablescape" and how is it different than just setting the table? The term tablescaping has developed in recent years with people decorating their tables, particularly for holidays, more and more elaborately to create an experience for their guests.
"Tablescaping is the act of creatively arranging a tabletop so that it conveys a specific theme, mood, or experience. It's a thought process of being creative and planning to design a table top with a specific theme or mood."
So it's different than just setting the table with forks, knives, plates etc. Most tablscapes have been methodically thought out and planned, shopped for and set to be perfect for one's guests. One drawback is the clean-up afterwards, especially with all the extra dishes!
But If you don't have time to do all that - here's some quick tips for your Thanksgiving dinner;
1. First place a simple, neutral table runner down the middle of your table. You can also opt for buying placemats if you want. They don't have to match the table runner. These can be found at your Home Goods or Target stores.
2. Add pillar candles at several different height for your centerpieces. You don't have to use candle holders - but it would look great to add height to your centerpiece. You can also place a few vases of fresh flowers as well.
3. Adding chargers can also be a nice touch. A charger is a large plate that sit under the dinner plate. If you want to skip that charger, go ahead! Also, If you want the look of formal china without the cleanup - buy these amazing plates at you local grocery store. They're plastic, sturdier than paper, and have a silver accent to look like china.
4. Sprinkle real or artificial leaves or foliage down the center of the table runner.
5. Add your silverware and glassware and if you have cloth or paper napkins place them in the glasses for a fun festive look. And that's it!
It's all About the Neutrals for Fall
So when people think fall colors, they tend to think of: orange, brown, reds and golds. I know that's what I think of-the colors of changing tree leaves. Well this fall the stores, decorators, and Instagram homes are filled with a new, different set of fall colors! Creams, whites, mints, sage greens are being displayed everywhere- thus creating a new refreshing look and a take off off the modern farmhouse home decor trends.
My the color scheme in my home is already set in those colors- so I couldn't wait to try out this new fall color pallet! And you know what? I LOVE IT!! So here's a look of my new fall coffee table decor. (I can't wait to decorate the rest of my home in theses colors!)
How To Get the Look:
I used faux lamb's ear and natural looking mint green foliage, and intermingled it with a large sage green pumpkin, cream plastic pumpkin, and small off white and mint porcelain pumpkins. The small pumpkins I found at the dollar spot at Target!! It was a great find! Then a incorporated sprigs of faux white wild flowers for a little more interest and depth.
I'm mixed this new fall decor with my everyday ZGallerie alligator coffee table tray and silver Home Hoods candle sticks. I'm still decorating other spaces in my home- here's another photo.
Easy, Classy Fall Decor
This fall has been super crazy! With my five children each in all different stages of life, (one in high school, one in middle school, elementary school, preschool, and a nine month baby at home), this fall has been the busiest ever!
So this year fall decorating needed to be fast and simple! So that's what I did!
I already had the three metallic vases, but knew I needed a couple more. (Remember, when displaying lots of accessories, look best when grouped in odd numbers.) I then found two matching metallic candlesticks at At Home store.
Next, I found these wonderful, white pumpkins from Target. (I loved that they were white because it brightened up the room- instead of normal dark fall decor.) The greenery, gold pumpkin and fall garland pieces I've had from prior years. I put them all together and-voila!
Easy fall home decor with only a few pieces! So simple!
A Harvest Entryway Table
Fall entryway decor! Ready to welcome guests on Thanksgiving day!
In most homes the entryway is the first piece of furniture and decor a guest sees when they enter a home. It sets the precedence for what the rest of the home looks and feels like- and can tell a lot abut the people living there.
Always make it an expression of you and your family members.
