Fall Flashback: {Snapshots from our home last fall}

Good morning!  Since I am still not giving in to pumpkins and wheat bundles just yet, I thought it would be fun to share a few "flashback" pictures of our home last fall.  Don't get me wrong, I am so ready to adorn our home with little white pumpkins, my favorite, but I am holding out for a little longer!

Last year, I decided to add small touches of fall to each room.  As mentioned above, I am a sucker for white pumpkins so they were sprinkled throughout our home.  I also stuck with the natural theme and just added a few new things to what I already had.  Pinecones are always a fall staple around here and are great to use throughout the winter months! I loved our home last fall, it felt cozy and warm so I plan on repeating the natural "theme" this year.

This vintage inspired crate from HomeGoods was the perfect find for unused space in our kitchen. I love decorating it for each season! This vignette was literally thrown together using several things I already had and then I added the real, white pumpkins to finish the look.  It is totally normal to put a seagrass pumpkin in a cake stand...I decided!

I love the look it added to the space and created a festive vignette that is visible from the dining room, too!

 

 

I added a few pumpkins and cinnamon sticks to this area.  It is amazing what a difference a few items can make. 

 

 

Little white pumpkins also made an appearance on our breakfast nook shelves...

 

 

Our breakfast nook all ready for fall...

 

 

Our chalkboard is changed up often...it is a great way to add a personal touch to any space.  I love the rustic, barn-wood frame on this one I got at HomeGoods!

 

More small pumpkins added a pop of orange to our breakfast bar...there is no such thing as too many pumpkins!

 

I cannot wait to add touches of fall to our mantle. It will be the first project for me this year.  I keep a natural theme year around using driftwood pieces, candles, branches and fern sprigs.  I love these jars from HomeGoods...the wire adds a nice texture and they are great to keep up all year!  I am thinking cotton stems would be a great addition for fall!

 

 

Hope you enjoyed the fall flashback!  I am so excited to decorate this year and cannot wait to share our fall home tour with you!  Now if the weather would just cool down, we would be all set! 

What's New Wednesday: {Breakfast Nook}

 

 

Happy hump day!  Hope your week is going great! 

 

If you follow me on Instagram then you have seen my latest Home Goods purchase.  If you don't follow me yet and would like to, you can click HERE! 

 

I did some shopping with a friend last week and picked up the large beaker "vase" shown below.  I am always the girl who goes for the things that most people walk right past!  I love items that are a little quirky and have interesting details...the things that make my husband give me the "what in the world is that" look!

 

I already had a smaller beaker vase that I picked up a few years ago but it already had a spot on my kitchen shelf and I didn't want to mess with moving it or having to  rearrange that area.  What's a girl to do?  Well, she goes back to HomeGoods the next day and picks up the smaller version of the big one she bought the day before!  It was a match made in Home Goods heaven!

 

I added some faux greenery sprigs to each of them and styled them on top of a vintage bread board....

 

 

 

I love the way the compliment the glass bottles on my breakfast nook shelves!

 

After finding those two, I walked into another Home Goods and found this smaller one...

 

 

I think it goes great on my branch table and I love the way the sun reflects through the glass!

 

What do you think of them?  Would you have bought them or would you have walked right past them?

Thanks for stopping by!  Check back Friday for this week's "Friday Finds" post!
