I’ve been decorating for fall this week–even though it isn’t remotely chilly outside yet–and wanted to share a few photos.
| Porch Decor: Kirkland’s |
I usually keep my fall decor pretty minimal–as you know, Christmas is an entirely different story–but I enjoy adding a few touches here and there.

It’s still very warm around here, but I’m looking forward to sweater weather soon!
I’m still madly in love with my thrifted dresser:
More on that score {here}.
| Elements of Style | blue and white dish-vintage | mini pumpkins: HomeGoods |
I gave some old faux pumpkins a coat of my favorite gold spray paint instead of donating them–they look so much better now!
| Gold tray: HomeGoods, blue and white pot: thrifted |
| Wreath: HomeGoods |
You can read more about how I painted and monogrammed our dining room table and chairs after they were damaged in a move {here}.
This is my favorite time of year–soup, football games, and the smell of burning leaves.
I hope you’re having a relaxing weekend!

Christy: I adore the linen recliner, as well as your deor. I worry that light fabric would be too difficult to keep clean. What are your observations?
Christy says
Hi, Ann–
We’ve had the white slipcovered sofa and chair for almost 16 years and love it–I can wash and bleach the slipcovers whenever they get dirty. The recliner is about a year and a half old now and seems to be doing just fine. Since it’s not slipcovered, I sprayed it thoroughly with Scotchguard when it arrived and repeat every few months.
I love the white because we move so frequently and I know it will work with whatever paint color is already on the walls; even with dogs and kids it has been a great choice.
Hope that helps!
Christy
