A Touch of Fall

Hi Everyone,


Are you in the mood for Fall decorating yet?
I know a lot of you have already started and I've seen
some really pretty Fall inspiration from a lot of you!

This is how our foyer looked over the spring and summer.

When I found this coat rack at Homegoods recently,
 I thought it would look great for Fall so that
was my starting point.

And this is our foyer now.

{You can see "The Blog Boss" there in the corner supervising :}

I love how the deep red looks with the light blue on the walls.
When I saw the red pears at the grocery store, I thought they
would be the perfect thing for the two pots.  I nestled them
in some spanish moss.


I already had this "Welcome" sign and I thought it went
well with everything else.


Okay, "The Boss" is giving me the "evil eye" so I guess
 I better wrap this up! 
He says you have all had enough of my "yammering"!  : )
I'm sure that's not true though, is it?

I liked how adding the scarf gave it that warm, cozy feeling
I think we all start craving this time of year!




So have you done any Fall decorating yet?
Maybe this will help put you in the mood if you 
haven't yet!!


Thanks so much for stopping by ~ I love sharing these things
with you ~ believe it or not, not everyone gets as excited 
about finding the perfect color mum or the just right
 accessory as we do!!

    I love the coat rack you found at Homegoods - it's very fall like. The pots with moss and red pears is so cute! What a great idea! I just started getting all my fall decor out and hope to get a lot in the next few days.

    Have a great weekend!

    Nope, I'm packing it up instead of taking it out. Be glad when I can decorate though.

    I really like the coat rack AND the empty frame! The negative space the frame provides is often more interesting than a picture in it. andrea @ townandprairie

Blue Kitchen Cabinets 2017

I have done a couple posts on kitchens with blue cabinetry in the past, after all it is my favorite color. It has been awhile though, so today I have rounded up some more  amazing kitchens with cottage style that also incorporate blue in  the design. source The kitchen above and the one below have white upper cabinets and soft shades of blue on the lower ones. This is a nice way to use blue without going overboard or ending up with something that you would get tired of quickly. source source Finding the right shade of blue would be key and using a lot of white and wood tones along with it creates a beautiful and timeless look. source source Isn't the kitchen above just so very unique? It has sort of a french country feeling but in an updated way. Wish there was a better picture of the script that's on the wall  on the right. source This kitchen is from Remodelondo la Casa and I've always thought the w

AFFORDABLE WALL DECOR

Hi Everyone, One of the things I find the most difficult about decorating is finding wall decor that I like and is also affordable. That is one of the main things that I am always on the hunt for and sometimes I have to come up with some creative ideas. Just yesterday, I found this beautiful image of a  white hydrangea at The Graphics Fairy . The Graphics Fairy I printed it out in a size that would fit in a frame that  I already had.  I think it looks so pretty in the simple white frame. I'm probably going to hang it in our bedroom. I'm making a few small changes in there and I will show you when it's completed. This star is actually from the garden section of our local Meijer store.  It was originally silver metal and I spray painted it white. I have seen a lot of people decorate with bread boards. This one fit perfectly in the narrow space between my  cabinet and window and I love the warmth of the wood.  I love th

Family Room Reveal

Hello Everyone! I've been meaning to post about our updated family room for a very long time and I'm  finally doing it - yeah!! I had been ready to replace our brown leather furniture for a while and when a new Ikea opened very close to us last summer, I jumped at the chance to take a good look at their slipcovered furniture. Originally the plan was to buy another sofa and loveseat like we had but when I  saw the Ektorp sectional on the showroom floor at Ikea, I was sold.   It just seemed so cozy and I could really envision it in our family room. As you can see, we purchased the sectional with the white slipcover. You just can't beat the prices at Ikea and the quality is definitely good enough for us. I'm at a point where I don't want to buy expensive furniture that I feel like I have to keep forever.   We even had the sofa delivered and they took away the old sofa and loveseat  for a very small fee. We purchased this dre
