Our Home: {Fall Snapshots}

Happy November 1st!  I am still trying to figure out what happened to October.  Seriously, it went by so fast!  I am a little behind on posting our fall décor so I thought it would be a good time to share a few fall snapshots with you before it is time to bring out the Christmas décor!
 
This year I stuck with subtle and simple decor.  I love the look of natural elements in soft hues.  This lantern from HomeGoods is one of my favorite pieces because it can stay out all year long and switched up easily by what is inside.  For fall, I actually kept the fern I had in it from spring...and I think it added a nice pop of green.  The driftwood pumpkins from Tuesday Morning added a simple fall touch and brought in some texture to this space.  Of course, my vintage card catalog adds a ton of character to the space so I didn't want to over do the decor.  Less is more, sometimes!
 
 
Our reading nook got a cozy touch with this faux fur rug.  I love using layers to create interest in a neutral space.  


This vignette was easy to create using a wood bowl and antlers I purchased at Homegoods awhile ago.  By simply adding the little white pumpkins, also from Homegoods, it quickly became a fall vignette!
 
Keeping with the simple and subtle theme, our living room was adorned with a crate of pumpkins on the coffee table and a few cotton stems on the mantle. Nothing over the top, but just enough to add a fall ambiance!
 


 


I cannot wait until it gets cool enough to light the fire! Until then, these candles will get a lot of use!

 
In our dining room, I kept with the same theme and used natural elements to bring a little fall inside.  A few real, white pumpkins and mercury glass votive holders completed the look!
 
 

I hope you enjoyed my mini-fall home tour!  Have a great week!

Friday Finds: {Sponsored by At Home Stores}

It's the weekend, yay!  We are getting some much needed rain so we might spend it snuggled up on the couch and I am not complaining! Hope you enjoy yours!

Awhile back, I took a trip to my local At Home store and gave you a little photo tour of their store.  If you missed that post, you can check it out by clicking HERE!

They have such a wide variety of products ranging from furniture and accessories to housewares and textiles!  Today I thought it would be fun to show you some of the items that I have purchased from At Home and how I have styled them in my home!

One thing I love to decorate with is plants.  I do not have a green thumb, so I usually opt for faux plants!  I love this tall topiary I found at At Home!  It adds a nice pop of color to my foyer and is something I can use all year long!

 
 

Another item from At Home, that you see when you walk in my door, is this rustic wood wall clock.  I had been searching for the perfect clock for this space for some time and was thrilled to find the perfect fit!

 
Both the clock and the topiary add so much character to our entry!
 
 
Speaking of clocks, At Home has become my go to store for clocks!  I adore this huge, galvanized clock that is a major focal point in our game room!

 
You cannot go wrong with galvanized metal!
 
Our media room is still a work in progress.  It is one room in the house that I wanted to make sure felt masculine and was a room that my husband approved of since he is the one that spends the most time in it! It sat pretty bare for awhile, but with one trip to At Home and I found some great additions to this room.  While we still have a way to go, these key pieces really got the ball rolling and I look forward to completing it soon!
 
I am loving the way the faux cowhide rug, industrial wood and metal tables and both sets of throw pillows add so much character to the space! 
 
The oversized gray trellis pillows were an easy and inexpensive way to update our old leather couch. 
 
 
The tables are a great size and are easy to move around when we are entertaining.  The mix of wood and metal add to the rustic feel of the room.  The cowhide rug creates an unexpected focal point and breaks up all the gray in the room!
 
Pass the popcorn!
 
And last, but certainly not least...this fabulous furry pillow!  I have 6 of these furry white pillows in my house (you already saw a few in the media room).  Why? Because they add so much texture to the space, are super soft and cozy and the price cannot be beat!  And let's be honest...every room of the house needs one! 
 
 
 
Great stuff, right? Are you ready to head to At Home to do some shopping?  To find the At Home location nearest you, check out their store locator HERE!

Thank you, At Home, for sponsoring this post and providing me with a gift card to shop with!  I am looking forward to my next visit and stocking up on holiday goodies!
