With each new season comes renewed energy and a bit of a fresh start. We can switch up our decor, change things around, give ourselves a new look. No time is it more fun than in the Fall. The colors and textures can bring a room to life. Even one pop of orange is sometimes enough to change the whole look of a room. For my entry, I stayed simple and somewhat neutral…but with a pop of orange.
The pop of orange is accomplished with just a few mini pumpkins I picked up at our local farm market. I filled my lantern with baby boo pumpkins but topped them off with an orange one.
Natural twill bows around the white pumpkins and cotton bolls in a wood bucket don’t have a lot of color, but are full of texture so I think it works.
For the entry chest of drawers, I left the wood tray there and just changed the accessories. I thought about heading to the grocery for some fresh flowers but instead headed to my back yard. I have two giant oak trees and one of them has low branches. I was able to reach a few and cut some off. I even lucked out and got a couple of branches with acorns still attached.
The little pumpkin is actually a candle that I’ve had for years. It’s that pop of orange I was talking about and even though it’s very small, it adds that touch of fall I was going for.
The other corner of my little entry houses my tiered shelf from Decor Steals. I gave it an update with baby boo and mini orange pumpkins.
I added cotton bolls to the ironstone pitcher and called it a day. This literally took 3 minutes because I didn’t totally reinvent the wheel. I switched out my rag balls for the pumpkins but most everything else stayed the same. The ball jars on the top were empty so I filled one with pumpkin vase filler and the other one with cotton bolls.
I switched out my DIY Watercolor Wall Art that I made in the spring for these ones with a fall theme. You can download these three images by clicking HERE.
Changing seasonal decor should be fun…not stressful or time-consuming. Use what you already have but maybe in a different way. Add a natural element but keep it simple. Here is the source for the baby boo pumpkins: Autumn Harvest Pumpkins. Yes, they were a little pricey but they are so dang cute that it was worth every cent. I can’t grow my own so buying them is my only option!
After the hottest week ever, the temps have cooled and it feels like fall again. I am so ready. Take care and see you soon!
