I don't really go overboard by any means with my fall decorations...I just like to add enough "festiveness" to get in the spirit of the season. I didn't buy anything new this year...(one day I'll stop spending all of my money on my child....) but till then, what I have will have to do:-) Anyways, as evident by the below pictures this ain't no southern living spread, but regardless...it makes me happy.
This is our breakfast room, so the table we eat at all the time. I'm still debating whether I'll do a table setting on it during Christmas, but for now I wanted it simple. So a few pumpkins and gourds was all it got.
This is the console table in our foyer, I cannot WAIT to get some new buffet lamps (or maybe just ONE big statement lamp) and some frames to do a series of botanicals instead of the mirror...but that will all come in time. For now I added some fun fall flair.
And the dining room...this room is right as you walk into our house on the left, so anyone visiting sees it right away. And ohmygoodness....seeing this pictures reminds me how much I dislike this furniture...all I see is RED. I've talked about it before...but the china cabinet my dad built which I LOVE and will keep, but the table and chairs were my grandparents and I am just using them until I get something new. I really want my dad to build me a farmhouse style table with dark wood...but until he gets some time to do that I may have to paint this stuff...don't know if I can handle it that long. I think the red tones in the heart pine china cabinet will be fine when they are grounded by some darker furniture...but right now it is just TOO much red. But, goodness gracious....who wants to come paint!? Ugh.
Anyways, I think the table looks pretty, it's still undecided whether we will be hosting Mikey's family for Thanksgiving; but if we do I'll be ready!
That's all I've got...maybe next year I'll add some flair to the mantel:)
Happy Tuesday!

I knew you had some fall love in you somewhere.. haha! Get some Annie Sloan chalk paint and get to work on that table and chairs. I bet it'd make a huge difference! Although, I kind of like the wood. :)
