Fall marks the beginning of the holiday season and it’s so much fun having friends and family over. I have gathered a few of my favorite inspirations for fall that I hope to incorporate some how. I chose three that I think are not only beautiful, but that I can actually do. I think you will see that they are relatively simple but make a great impact.
I have a couple of vases around the house they contain faux foliage. Won’t be hard to wrap some burlap around it and tie a pretty bow. What a great way to add texture and a warm, fall feeling.
Contemplating painting some pumpkins to place by the door. I may do our monogram. I would like to borrow Emily’s wagon and set the pumpkins inside! Her front door looks amazing.
Now this one is easy. Only problem being that I only have one lantern. I may have to hop off to Ikea to pick up two more. I plan to have them on my front porch and fill them with pumpkins and candles. {I will wait until the temps drop a bit. I ruined two candles in my lantern this summer. Cute at night . . .melt during the day. Oops!} ………………………………………………………………… Go See My Fall 5 Guest Post on Table Ideas You can head over to Schue Love today where I am guest posting for Natasha and chatting about five ways to dress up your table. Go check it out and say hi. If you haven’t been over there yet, you must check out her recipes. Especially her pumpkin bars. Yummy!

Love the idea of using burlap over the vases. I have tons of clear glass vases this would be perfect for. And, I filled my lanterns with pumpkins and candles last year too (but yes, the candles melt something awful in them in the summer). Mine really need a fresh coat of paint too!!

These are all great ideas girl! I love the burlap wrapped around the vase. So inexpensive and easy- perfect for Fall too! I wish I could just hop over to Ikea – mine is almost 2 hours away! Boo!
Carmel @ Our Fifth House says
Oh yeah and I forgot – what about using those battery operated candles outside instead of the real ones. They won't melt and at night you won't have to worry about turning them on and forgetting about them. Just a thought.

I have one lantern as well on my porch, but I need a second. TJ Maxx always has them in stock. Hopefully I can find another. I love that idea of candles and pumpkins!

Lisa @ Shine Your Light says
I love the burlap around a pot idea….I took a picture of one like that at the grocery store last year with my cell. Love the brown ribbon – a pretty touch. I took a sharpie to my pumpkins by the front door this year – so easy!

Allison says
Love all of these ideas! I especially like the burlap wrapped around the vase and the lanterns. I'm off to read your guest post. My husband was peeking over my shoulder the other night and saw the photo of those pumpkin bars on Natasha's blog and asked if I would make them. I did last night and they are so delicious!
Blondie's Journal says
These are all wonderful ideas! I think if I just leave my stash of burlap out, I'll come up with a million ideas!
Now I'm off to your guest post! Have a great day! 🙂
XO,

What great (and do-able) fall decorating ideas! I haven't even started thinking about it yet, but this weekend is going to be cool weather in Nashville, so maybe that will set my mood! 🙂 I'm ready to whip out scarves and boots!
