Don’t worry. I am not ready for fall either. I am still enjoying the pool and beach. My children are not even back to school yet! But there is method to my madness. You see, I am a planner. I got lost in the Pinterest world perusing fall mantels. I used to change my mantel up more frequently, but now it’s pretty much just four or five times a year. So I like to know what I am doing for fall. Why? Because places like the dollar store and Target often offer super cute things that fly off the shelves. If I know I need leaves for my mantel design then I will hit up The Dollar Tree as soon as they start carrying them. So here are a few images {courtesy of PInterest} for you to enjoy. Maybe they will spark an idea or two for you to carry out once fall rolls around.

via Have these sparked any fall inspiration for you? All so beautiful and born from so much talent and creativity. I am drawn to simple and classic so whatever I do, it will be simple with a touch of glamour. Enjoy your warm and sunny days until fall, and remember to snatch up those great buys when you see them. They go quickly! …………………………………………….. happy weekend sharing with Natasha over at Schue Love
SO many great ideas here! It's pretty much like autumn here in Alaska with our leaves already beginning to change 🙁 We will have snow in about a month, so I'm trying to enjoy the whiff of fall we're getting.
I love the "Gather" idea especially. I don't have a mantle, but I will need to integrate some of these great ideas. Have a great weekend!
Courtney you slacker you (only changing out your mantel 4-5 times a year) :o) just kidding. I love the red frame with the ribbon and leaves hanging from it. They are all so pretty and although I do love the warmth of summer I think fall is my favorite season. Happy weekend!
Great ideas! I used to change our mantel out more frequently, but lately have found I like it plain, simple and no fuss. Might add a few elements for fall this year. I do tend to pick things that will carry into Thanksgiving rather than focusing on the Halloween theme, especially now that we don't have little ones in the house.
I love fall. Seriously can't wait for it to be here so I can wear sweaters and boots. 🙂 Love the inspiration ideas! I think I really need to put some more love into my mantel this year!
It's still 105 degrees here, I can't even imagine fall! At this rate, we may skip straight to winter around here (in December!) — love all your inspiration tho!
Okay–Lots of inspiration here….and a confession! First, my confession…I don't change my mantel except for once a year–Christmas. So, I am inspired to try to change my mantel with the seasons. Secondly, I love the 7th and 8th photos! Thanks for getting my wheels turning!
so pretty! i have fall in my mind (and in pinterest) lately too!
Wonderful inspiration for Fall decorating! I'm actually getting in the mood. Our evenings have started to become sweater weather. Love the Fall banner and the red frame with the leaves. Happy Weekend Courtney!
Beautiful inspiration Courtney. I am so ready for fall, it is my favorite season. I am especially drawn to the first image I love the high contrast of black and white with pops of orange leaves…so pretty. Have a great weekend.
What beautiful ideas!
I am SO ready for Fall!
