Colors of Fall Home Tour

Happy Fall everyone!!

Welcome to my Fall home tour as part of the seasonal tour series hosted by Marty from A Stroll Thru Life.

A huge thank you to my friend Linda from It All Started With Paint for being the driving force and keeping us organized for the tours, as our dear Marty was having a terrible time, you can read more about that right here. 

You may be popping by from Our Southern Home, which gave me a little extra pressure since Christy's home and traditional style is one that I greatly admire. If you haven't visited her yet, do so soon!

The complete list and links of Fall home tours are at the end of this post. For now, let me go to the kitchen to grab you something warm so we can start this tour!

THE KITCHEN

I'm a decorator turned do-it-yourself-er out of necessity to bring change to our dated home. It was precisely here, in this little kitchen where my blogging journey began and it hasn't slowed down a single bit. Most days you'll find me in my garage shop working on something to update our home.

Decor-wise, I always keep things simple here in the kitchen. Fruits and vegetables inside a bowl on the island are a fall staple, but this time I went another route and went with an old vase full of greens and embellished pine cones close by.

Isn't it fun when you're looking for decorative items and you find something you totally forgot you had?! This vase was dug out of the basement where it was collecting dust for several years.

Fall baking is back at RLC; although the kids are the ones in charge of it. Sugar cookies are my son's specialty while my daughter makes a delicious raspberry-topped cheesecake. Yum!

THE DINING ROOM

It's here in the dining room where those gorgeous autumn colors are in motion.

I was very surprised to find these little pumpkins at my closest grocery store and they were the ones that set the tone for this home tour.

Now, I hardly ever buy sunflowers, but I loved these the minute I set my eyes on them. Sadly, they didn't last me long.

A sign gallery was created on the chalkboard with some old signs and a couple of new additions. Don't you love decorating with signs?

THE FAMILY ROOM

One space we all gravitate towards is our family room. Here we watch TV, eat, play, sleep, etc. The decor in this room is also kept simple, but I always try to bring something new to the mantel and that's the only space that many times is not so simple.

These faux branches are the ones to tie in with the colors in the other rooms.

I brought in the small rug from the basement to layer it and give the room another look. It feels too small, I might live with it for a couple weeks and remove it.

The mantel somehow got an unexpected boho vibe that I'm loving.

THE LIVING ROOM

A few weeks ago I was working here in my living room, creating this office space for my daughter. Were you also scrambling to get a desk set up for your kid's distance learning? I guess we were all going through the same situation! 

Well, I built this trio of floating shelves and it has served my daughter very well. I had my monstera 🌿there by the railing, but she didn't approve of it there, so I sent it to the other side of the room. 🙄

Small touches of fall décor were added to the shelves, they all pop against that gorgeous teal color on the wall. My daughter loves this little fox and has been having trouble naming her. I suggested the name Shannon as anything foxy reminds me of  Fox Hollow Cottage but she didn't approve. Do you guys have any suggestions?

More details about this temporary office space are HERE.

Looking the other way, this little fellow on the coffee table always puts a smile on my face.

And I just discovered this new view in my home. I had never taken a picture from this location. It's funny because I like it, but I keep on seeing the things I want to change... The first task might be bringing down that light, then, changing those colors on the walls.

My monstera is safe in that corner and happily getting lots of light.

MY OFFICE

Last but not least, my office, where a little sign is all the fall decor I needed in this space.
