Cozy Autumn Decor Vibes (Get Lost Heat Dome!)

Happy Monday, Friends! I'm so excited to be joining the Bloggers' Best Fall Home Tours hosted by Kelly from The Tattered Pew, which means you'll get a glimpse of beautiful seasonal decor inspiration from several different homes each day this week! So grab your favorite tea or coffee (iced mocha latte for me!) and come on in

If you hopped over after visiting the lovely home of Stacy from Bricks 'n Blooms, welcome! What comes to mind when you think of fall? It sure isn't the weather here in Texas--let me tell you, I have never been more ready for the seasons to change! Even though we've been told to expect several more weeks of this extreme heat dome that has resulted in relentless 100+ temps, I am determined to channel cozy autumn vibes--at least indoors! 

I've drawn inspiration from timeworn textures like the handmade wool pear I added to my velvety lamb's ear wreaths...

...and vibrant natural hues like these gorgeous apples.

Doesn't nature provide the prettiest color palettes? 

Here's a peek of the morning sunlight streaming into my kitchen. 

As a book nerd, I adore featuring vintage books in my decor. 

 My vintage jadeite display has been styled with natural accents for the season.

I gathered acorns, wildflowers, and dried wheat stems.

You can see how to create my DIY succulent pumpkins, here.

Next to my vintage jadeite, my collected transferware wall may be my favorite. This time, I included several close-ups of some of the individual plates I have found at estate sales and thrift stores over the years.

Friday, I shared some of my recent bargains, including the lovely leaf garland that I spruced up with real pressed leaves and featured on my dining room buffet. 

I found the sweet flocked pumpkins at Target's dollar spot. 

In the living room, a marquee pumpkin light adds a touch of whimsy. You can see my thrifty tips for crafting seasonal pillows, here. 

These cute felt acorns are from the dollar store. They were originally on stems but it was an easy tweak to add them to the handmade doily garland.

Who doesn't love velvet pumpkins? 

Here's a closer look at the decor on the sofa table. 

Now we've come full circle back to the dining room and the gallery wall...

...over the mantel.

I guess you can tell I'm fond of acorns! 

Given our long hot summer, I am finding shades of greens and creams very soothing. 

You can see how to craft these pretty pumpkins, here.

In case you missed it, you can find my autumn tablescape, here.

I'm so glad you stopped by! If you haven't already, be sure to check out the beautiful home of our gracious host, Kelly from The Tattered Pew!
