oh... so I was going to type and share something with you all.... OOOOOOH yes... some quick snaps of my fall decor around the house.
This year's color combo was a fun and festive one, teal, aqua, orange, and chocolate brown. - Get your color glasses on... its about to get crazy fun in here!
DISCLAIMER: nothing in my house is matchy matchy - however I try to incorporate the same things through out the house - either in prints, colors, ribbons, textures etc. Somehow or another it comes together... - I haven't figured this out yet either...
Inspiration for the color combo came from this photo/print I found online...
I loved these two prints together, the chevron and the polka dot... super fun... super crazy, ! I found these fabrics in the clearance section of our local Wal-Mart - I think I purchased both sets for around $8.00
For those of you just tuning in or checking back... here is a link to my entryway and a free fall printable that I designed...Fall Entryway Decor & Free Fall Printable
So now that we have that out of the way.... lets take a jaunt thru the ole house, shall we?
Starting with our front steps - I pinned the fabric to our summer, outdoor pillows from Grandinroad. I just tied some wired ribbon in contrasting blue that I had on hand from The Dollar Tree - $1.00
In our entryway...
I made up a bunting with the lettering of Fall, I painted the burlap in the blue polka dots, and used orange ribbon and orange lettering for the font. I used my Cricut to cut out the letters. "Cherry Limeade" was the cartridge font name.
and the lower part of the entryway... complete with some squirrels, owls, and various painted pumpkins that I picked up from The Dollar Tree. I spray painted the blue pumpkins, two different tones of blue, one a deep teal and the other a calypso blue color by Rustoleum. I wrapped my 2 blue candles from Summer in the orange ribbon and filled a couple of vases with mini pumpkins. I also found some fun fall pics and printed them off and framed them up for a layered look.
In our dining room I added a few things ....
A burlap table runner - NOTE: I do not typically like to work with burlap - it is VERY messy and dusty... and tends to frey alot... but its fall, and I thought it would be a cute thing to have in the room...
So I cut the length I was going for, and then stamped blue polka dots on the runner using a foam sponge -
Using the same chevron fabric from the outdoor pillows I actually sewed on ruffles... yes folks... this girl does actually know how to sew.... Please don't let my mother or my husband know though.... I have a reputation to maintain...
I covered the seams with the same gross grain orange ribbon for a finished look.
Here is the overall table view...
This frame - easy - downloaded some free printables from Pinterest here:
Found the print I liked in orange, traced a leaf pattern out on teal paper and cut it out, taped it to the orange printed paper, put it in white frame... viola! Framed Fall Art!
In the ole family hutch I printed out the same downloadable background print - only this time in the teal, onto 11x17 paper - and taped it to the back of our hutch - for a wallpaper look - I used 2 pieces per shelf. Also added in some of those pumpkins. You can see - glittery orange, teal, and aqua.
Just a little last one... in our living room - I have a few items for fall, framed photos of my daughter in a teal and brown dress, along with a coordinating framed photo of pumpkins.
I have these candlesticks and candles which I wrapped the same gross grain ribbon around... Simple...
(these small glitter pumpkins were from The Dollar Tree - on the other side is a Jack O Lantern face, that I turned around for Halloween - dual purpose decorating!!!!)
What did you guys do this year for fall? Did you have a theme? A fun color combinations that you would like to share with us?
