Fall House Tour

I’ve been counting down the minutes to decorate for fall! Last year, we were under renovation inside of our home, and though I put a few decorations out for a fall house tour 2021, but I was truly dreaming of this year, and all that we could do to make our house cozy for this season!

Cozy Autumn Holiday House Tour

For as long as I can remember I’ve been a lover of holidays, of the cozy times of year when the temps cool a bit. It feels like there is magic in the air. Something about this season brings me back to childhood and makes me extra grateful and filled with joy to be a mother. My own home now to decorate and to make special for my children — such a joy!

I first started by bringing out all of our fall decor, and I also added some new items to the bunch! I still have more to share, but these are my first two completed spaces that I couldn’t wait to show!

Our Fall House Tour 2022

Something that I LOVE about our home are all of the fireplaces. I adore decorating mantles and making them feel extra special with each season. I started with our sitting room mantle, and added cream and gray faux pumpkins, greenery and branches. Keeping things simple and classic for this space, and I plan to add some spooky fun to other rooms!

A staircase that I’ve dreamed of decorating!

The real star of the show is our staircase. Honestly, when we first walked into our home, the staircase took my breath away. I imagined future proms and maybe even wedding photos on this staircase. It’s such a focal point to our home.

I couldn’t help but think of all of the holiday decorations that we could someday add to this space! We went big this year! All different sizes of heirloom pumpkins and gourds. I love the natural vibe, and the pops of autumnal color. We added in greenery as well, and beautiful candlesticks. From our fall home tour 2020 to now, we’ve moved to a totally new home and have so much to share!

On the other side of the stairs I added cute jack-o-lantern luminaries. It’s extra magical at nighttime!

Some tips for Autumn Decor

+ Carry a Color Scheme Throughout +

I went with softer colors like cream and pale green, with pops of orange. Things look most cohesive when you carry tones and a vibe throughout your home. I have a bit more fun in kid spaces, but I keep things fairly neutral and on theme throughout the rest of the house.

+ Play with Natural Elements +

Take a look outside, are there branches you can trim? Or head to your favorite florist/ store that carries eucalyptus and ornamental branches. Florals are also a great way to carry the color story through your home!

+ Cozy lighting is a Must +

Candlelight, twinkle lights, flickering diffusers, dim lamp lighting — bring on all of the mood lighting!

+ Layer things in throughout the Season! +

You can add more Halloween theme items in October, and welcome early autumn in now. You may want to transition to a harvest theme in November, whatever works best for your family and home!
