Hello and Happy Fall!

Are you a fan of fall? I am. I always think summer is my favorite but then summer lasts so long here in Texas. This is the season that brings us cool mornings and evenings that feel so wonderful. I have always loved the changing of seasons. Fall is nostalgic for me . I remember fondly the days of getting ready to go back to school, football games, taffy apples, homecoming mums, parades and lot’s of halloween fun. Being a midwest gal, I miss it all. Years ago I decided to start making my home and outdoor areas feel like fall (even if it’s still in the 90’s!)

Here are a few ideas from this year:

For the yard, this year we added a fireplace. We only were able to use it a little bit this spring before it got too hot. Fall is the perfect time to sit and enjoy a nice warm fire. The mums and pumpkins give me all the autumn feels too. You know I’ll be adding a glass of wine, a good book and cozy throw to make it a perfect afternoon or early evening. That to me is self care.

This wreath from Feather Fluff and Flings welcomes people to our home and looks gorgeous against our dark stained door. It’s the first thing I put up come fall. As soon as people walk by or come to the door they always compliment me on this wreath. No credit goes to me, I just hung it up! They do ship if you want a spectacular wreath for any season. I love supporting them as they the nicest gals in the world. Remember I was their Valentine here.

All the touches of gold and leopard bring in some warmth too.. If you haven’t read ALL of Carolyne Roehm’s books, I’m sorry but you are missing out!

Fresh flowers in beautiful autumnal tones is the easiest way to bring in fall. I absolutely LOVE Trader Joe’s selection. Fresh and beautiful

Just a couple of ideas that I hope inspire you to add a touch of fall to your home and garden.

As always, thank you so much for stopping by.

XOXO,

Kimberly
