I put out some fall stuff a few weeks ago and I'm finally getting around to posting some pictures. I love this time of year, and after the brutal summer we had this fall is especially welcome. I love adding orange to my living room and kitchen. Opening my box of fall decorations is always so fun, and when you add in pumpkin, cinnamon, and a Leaves candle from Bath & Body Works...I'm in heaven.
For the last 2 years, my fall mantel has looked like this
I loved it and wanted to keep some of it the same, but I did want to change it up a little bit so this year I made a couple of small changes. Nothing is new, just moved around which is always fun. I'm very traditional when it comes to holiday decorating, and for me part of that is using the same stuff from year to year. I love to add in a few new things each year or use the old stuff in a different way, but for the most part I like to find things I love and stick with them. There's something so comforting and familiar about pulling them out of the box and surrounding myself with things I love.
My leaf wreath, fall letters, and leaf garland all made it back this year, and I still love them all.
Instead of the candles on the left, I filled a lantern with some little pumpkins and gourds
And on the right I used this ceramic pumpkin instead of the "give thanks" sign.
I love how festive it is!
Besides my mantel, I put out a few other fall things around the living room and kitchen, including my fall yarn wreath
This is on a table next to the couch. That platter will come down when I have some fall treats to put on it, but for now I'm loving it here.
Some cute pumpkin towels in the kitchen
And one of my favorite fall things are these leaf goblets. I bought 6 of them at the dollar store a couple of years ago and I love them. I was so excited to take them out of the cupboard where I keep my holiday dishes. They're just more fun to drink from than a regular glass.
