SOME FALL FUN

It’s been a while since my last post, almost about 2 months! Time flies and sometimes life just gets in the way. Between my daytime job, kids and everything in between, life has been a little bit hectic. Today’s post is just a quick look at some Fall decorating ideas. Here in Montreal where we live, true Fall is so short – the colors don’t last very long, so I like to make the best of it and bring some Fall inside too. I’m personally more partial to neutral decor rather than too many autumnal colours. I do prefer to see them outside rather than in. I’m also trying to find white pumpkins for our stoop, but for now I kept with the traditional orange. Whatever color scheme you choose, try to take the time and enjoy your decorating. It’s a nice way to escape from all of life’s crazy moments!

Hope you enjoy, happy decorating!

A combination of mercury glass and resin pumpkins. I love how all the textures and metallic tones play off of each other. How cool are the faux studded ones? They were a must when I saw them! I bought them all at HomeSense.

Notice the pyramid – you always want to try to create a triangular shape when arranging items together. Usually an odd number works best, but because there’s so many varied sizes here, the even number works fine. I love the baby pumpkin, so cute!

A close up shot, just to show you the different colors altogether. Mixing metals is always a good thing, trust me!

You can see how well they work in my dinging room - you've seen this room in previous posts. They suit the space and don't scream Fall but they're a subtle way of highlighting the season. Even though there's many of them, the 'non-color' keeps it simple.

Here I put the studded pumpkin with my hurricanes. The symmetry keeps it simple and elegant.

Here I used another baby pumpkin with some driftwood and more books of course! It’s simple to make a Fall statement and keep it understated.

Such an elegant place setting idea. I love the name tag as well. So simple yet so pretty. From Pinterest.

I just love this idea and the triple urns. It's so easy to create and will elevate any interior.

The front of our house. I’m still looking for large white pumpkins but I do like the way the orange plays off the red wreath.

A closer look. The wreath is from HomeSense.

A quiet place to sit and have some morning coffee.

Ok, the gardens are somewhat overgrown but you get the idea!
