Decorating An Outdoor Space For Fall

I can honestly say fall has made itself very known around here this week! It’s been raining and pouring and it’s even getting a little too cool to stay outside too long. That hasn’t stopped me from decorating our outdoor space for fall! When it comes to outdoor fall decor, I focus mainly on three things 1)mums 2) pumpkins 3)blankets. Three simple things that instantly make a space feel ready for the fall weather and colors.

Today, I’m joining a lovely group of bloggers as we all share our outdoor spaces decorated for the new season. At the end of the post you’ll find more inspiring spaces.

Decorating An Outdoor Space For Fall

I shared more of our fall home tour last week. You guys, I still haven’t decorated our porch yet and it’s almost October! Who am I?! I normally have it up at the end of August! I have been focusing on some major DIY projects around the house and just haven’t made fall a huge priority, but it’s finally starting to feel extra cozy around here.

When it comes to pumpkins, would you believe half of these are real? And the other half are fake? In fact, every single white pumpkin in this photo is faux. Pumpkins don’t last too long so it’s nice to have fake ones that look SO realistic. I love that they last all season and I can reuse them year over year.

There are a few changes I’ve made out here since my fall outdoor space last year,

Here are a few links to my casual fall outfit:

My goal was to create a cozy yet elegant space where we can kickback and relax and also entertain. I wanted to keep the neutral tones and use the dark beams as a starting point for the design. Adding comfortable furniture but also a statement chandelier and vintage inspired accents. 

Phase 2: building a custom, built-in media center coming later this year!

It’s often the final finishing touches that truly transform the vibe of a room. I picked up some final styling pieces from @wayfair , I am obsessed with both side tables. They are both statement pieces. And the personal photos, candle, heart trays and leather pillows are why bring the warmth and personal touches into this space.

I finally found the perfect family and pet-friendl I finally found the perfect family and pet-friendly sofa that passes the designer test! This is the 5-Seat Modular Corner Sectional from @7thavenueco in the color Oatmeal Beige. We ordered it in the extra-deep seat option for ultimate coziness. The material is water-repellent, stain-resistant and you can also throw all covers in the wash!

We cannot say enough great things about this sofa, we all love it and just sink into it. It definitely passes the family test. Plus, it truly is gorgeous. It looks very chic.
