Fall Home Tour

Thanks For Sharing!

Fall. I just can’t get enough. Like a lot of people, this is my absolute favorite time of year and I love bringing the season into my home. From January until August I am busy trying to decorate my home in general (and still go through boxes), and then once September hits my home takes on a whole new look as we enter the fall and winter.
Fall into Home Tour signThis year, I’ve partnered with 14 other bloggers for the ‘Fall Into Home’ Autumn Home Tours. I love seeing how each blogger has turned their home into a cozy and welcoming space. Each one with a unique and beautiful style. (links to all tours at bottom of post). You can also follow along on Instagram with the hashtag #FallIntoHome. Feel free to tag your posts too!

Neutral Fall Porch with Mums

Welcome to our Fall Home Tour. Last year, we’d only been in our home for a few weeks before I started decorating for fall. This year, I feel settled and finally feel like I’m getting comfortable decorating OUR home. It’s funny how long it takes to really get to know your space.

I really love how our porch turned out this year. While I generally stick to very neutral decor, I love how the pops of red mums look from the street. They really make a big impact and I’m loving them.

Fall Porch DecorI’ve always been drawn to pumpkin topiaries and finally got around to trying them out! I used Shannon’s tutorial on AKA Design and it was super easy.

Rustic Fall Mantel

Moving inside our home to the family room.  Here is our fall mantel this year. With such a dark stone, I often feel limited to only using white or light colors otherwise whatever I put up there completely disappears. I don’t mind too much though, you can never have enough white :)

Cozy Outdoor Living DecorNow onto my favorite place in our home. Our outdoor living space. I could stay out here all day, all year. It’s covered so even when we are in the rainy, Pacific Northwest months, we can still sit out here by the fire and listen to the rain fall. And thankfully my kids love it too because they always ask to eat their lunch out here!

Fall outdoor space

I fell in love with this entire fall line at Target this year. I was instantly drawn to these plaid and Cable Knit Throw Pillows and all the fun accessories. I could have bought every piece! It was the perfect soft, rustic look I wanted for our outdoor space this year.

    Taryn, your home is absolutely lovely! Your outdoor space looks like such a warm and welcoming spot to gather. Also, you inspired me to make an extra trip to Target to search for those plaid pieces. ;)

    Doesn’t it make a difference when you’ve lived in your home a bit longer. This is our second year in our home and I’m really feeling like I’ve got to know the home and layer things how I want now. LOVE your entry and I think that outdoor room is my absolute favorite! x

    Your style is beautiful! I LOVE your front entry way door and am looking for something similar. Do you know where it was purchased or the brand.

    Thanks!

      Hi! Unfortunately I don’t. The fireplace was already finished in this house when we bought it. I’m so sorry!
