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 extra pressure since I greatly admire Christy's home and traditional style. If you haven't visited her yet, do so soon!

The complete list and links to fall home tours are at the end of this post. 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 in a bowl on the island are a fall staple, but I used an old vase full of greens and embellished pine cones this time.

Isn't it fun when you're looking for decorative items and find something you forgot you had?! 

This vase was dug out of the basement, collecting dust for several years.

Fall baking is back at RLC, although the kids are in charge. 

Sugar cookies are my son's specialty, while my daughter makes a delicious raspberry-topped cheesecake. Yum!

THE DINING ROOM

In the dining room, those gorgeous autumn colors are in motion.

I was amazed to find these little pumpkins at my closest grocery store this early in the season. They 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, so I might live with it for a few weeks and remove it.

The mantel somehow got an unexpected boho vibe that I love.

THE LIVING ROOM

A few weeks ago, I worked in my living room, creating an office space for my daughter. Were you also scrambling to set up a desk for your child's distance learning? We were all going through the same situation! 

I built this trio of floating shelves, and it has served my daughter very well.

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 but has been having trouble naming her. I suggested Shannon, which reminds me of Fox Hollow Cottage, but she disapproved. 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 angle. 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 and then changing the colors on the walls.

My monstera is happily in that corner, 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.
