A Thanksgiving Tablescape in nontraditional colors. I know I shared this table earlier this Fall, but I made a few tweaks and a cake!  Next week I’m sharing my traditional Thanksgiving table as part of a Thanksgiving table blog hop! It’s fun to compare and contrast the two looks.

The cake I made was this pumpkin bundt cake (recipe here).green and white Fall table

If you remember, the table from a few weeks ago had white pumpkin cocottes on top of each place setting.  I removed those, added some candles and a cake. Fall Thanksgiving table #tabledecorations #tablescapes #tabledecor #tablecenterpieces #tablesettingideas #falltablesettings #farmhousetablesettings #autumntablescapes #casualtablesettings #beautifultablesettings #uniquetablescapes #neutraltablescapes #thanksgivingtablesettings #dinnertpartytablescapes

Now you can see what green plates were hiding below – these beautiful majolica plates!

Fall table with pumpkin spice cake

Yes, we eat off of our antique and vintage china, as pictured below.  I recommend not using any knives on it so they won’t scratch the dishes!

I love dining by candlelight, especially in the Fall and Winter.  I pulled out my new candlesticks for this table!

Now it took me a while to find a candle that actually fit these candlesticks.  These candlesticks are made in France, so of course the candles don’t come in standard US sizes.  I went to lots of different stores trying to find candles that would fit.  I ended up having to cut a larger candlestick to size in order to fit.    Fall table with green and white

To set your Thanksgiving tablescape, you can try some new things: maybe use non traditional colors.  Use your antique or vintage china.  Dine by candlelight.

A Pumpkin Festival in Switzerland

Happy Halloween!! This past September we went to Switzerland and visited a pumpkin festival!  We had been to several pumpkin festivals in Germany before – which I wrote about here in 2016 and here in 2013.

The theme for the festival was mythical creatures.

All of these statues are created from all different types of gourds and pumpkins!

It is so fun to see what they create!

In addition to pumpkin statues, they have a restaurant where they serve pumpkin everything – pumpkin soup, pumpkin bread, pumpkin rolls, pumpkin strudel, pumpkin beer, pumpkin pastries, etc.

We loved their pumpkin soup and spent a long time figuring out the recipe for it.  Then we went back a few years later and they sold the recipe! Here is my German pumpkin soup recipe.

It is also a Fall and Harvest festival.  I thought these dried corns were cool and funky.

Of course you can purchase various types of gourds.

And pumpkin flavored anything!

The dried things below on the cart are either dried artichokes or dried thistles. I can’t tell, but it is interesting to see how they decorate differently for Fall.

I leave you with pictures of various pumpkins and gourds!  The festival we went to was located at Jucker Farm in Switzerland.  For those that read regularly, I will be posting pictures and trip updates, most likely in January when I usually have my post Christmas blues.  Up until January I have so many posts to share for Fall, Halloween, Thanksgiving and Christmas.

Bountiful Fall Baskets in the Mudroom

We use affiliate links in our posts and our site. This means if you make a purchase using these links, we may earn a small commission. You don’t pay a cent more than you would otherwise! Our full disclosure is available under About.

I love collecting vintage baskets and using them in my decor.  Amber at Follow The Yellow Brick Home organized a blog hop today with the theme of how you use baskets in your Fall decor. If you are coming from Decor To Adore, welcome! She always has such beautiful decor!

While these aren’t technically baskets, these olive buckets are new to me this season and I thought they looked pretty filled with blooming mums.

I was drawn to these maroon and purple colors of the mums this year.  

On the shelves, I have a vintage basket on the bottom left.  I think it is technically a hat basket, but I can’t remember.  I have had this since childhood and more fondly remember it being filled with my doll’s clothes. The other shelves are filled with other reminders of Fall – pumpkins both faux and velvet, and a pumpkin spice tin!

Fall baskets in the mudroom

This is one of my favorite baskets below. It usually sits on a shelf, but I brought it down to showcase these beautiful white flowers.

Yes, I confess this basket was brought down because of the photoshoot today, but you know what? I don’t care! It looks cute in the picture.  It had to be put back on its shelf though as I’d otherwise trip over it in this location!

Regular readers of mine will know I just shared my Halloween mudroom earlier this month.   

Next up on the Fall Baskets blog hop is My Thrift Store Addiction.  I know you will enjoy what she has to share!

2 Minute Fall Kitchen Decor Idea

Sharing my 2 minute Fall kitchen decor idea today.  I would have said one minute, but then I would be bragging *winks*.

apples and pumpkins in a majolica vase

How is it easy?  I took a pretty vase I had and put baby boo pumpkins and apples in it. See? Done. Two minutes. Or one if you’re quick.

fall kitchen decor

Many people like to store fruit in bowls on the counter.  To make your decor pop, pick an eye catching vessel to store and display your fruit in.  Here I used a brilliant green majolica urn.  For Fall kitchen decor, mix in some mini pumpkins into your fruit bowl.  Other seasonal fruits would look great in here too, such as pears and figs.

Yes, this is unrelated from my easy decor, but I’m excited about my new Fall wreath.  It has velvet pumpkins, dried wheat and grape leaves!

How to Style a Fall Table with Non-Traditional Colors and a Blog Hop!

How to Style a Fall Table with Non-Traditional Colors and a Blog Hop!We use affiliate links in our posts and our site. This means if you make a purchase using these links, we may earn a small commission. You don’t pay a cent more than you would otherwise! Our full disclosure is available under About.

Today I have two exciting things: one, I’m sharing my Fall tablescape and I’m hosting and participating in a Fall tablescape blog hop as part of the “It’s a Wonderful House” blog tours! We did this series last Fall and Christmas and it was fun and successful! Tons of beautiful tablescape inspiration for you today!

So let’s get started! This year I was inspired by green and white.  Perhaps it is because our Summer was full of browns here in California.

Green and White Fall Table

For years we didn’t really decorate for Fall because the traditional Fall colors didn’t really match the colors of our home.  No offense to bright orange found in pumpkins, but it just doesn’t really go in my house. 

Then in recent years these fairytale pumpkins started showing up at farm stands and markets and it opened up an opportunity to use pumpkins that were not just orange!

Not that I’m poo-pooing orange all together.  Last year I decorated my table with blues and oranges.  This year I went to the opposite side of the color wheel and headed to the greens.

Each place setting has a Juliska dinner plate, a green antique Majolica plate (similar), and a Staub pumpkin cocotte.

We love using these pumpkin cocottes in the Fall for soups and stews.

I actually had a dream about this table: I used my green majolica plates in a table setting.  The centerpiece in my dream was TBD, but I woke up and ran with it!   

For the centerpiece, I picked some olive branches from the garden.  How cute are the little olives?  I recommend using any sort of greenery from your garden.  I was originally going to use grapevines, but they were destroyed by white flies this year.  So I started eyeing the other plants in the garden and clipped a few olive tree branches.

Fall table decor

I also found some curious pieces of squash at the local farm stand – in green and white!  I dug through their big flat of odd squash to find the perfect colors.

These blue/green pumpkins are fairytale pumpkins, the variety is Jarrahdale.  They came from a local farm, but in previous years I have been able to grow my own.   This year we planted our own patch – 13 plants to be exact.  So far only 4 pumpkins have grown, two of which were these white baby boo pumpkins here.   I don’t think we watered them enough and then they got attacked by white flies.

You can look past just green and white for nontraditional Fall decorating.  When you look at the color palette for Fall, it is actually a whole rainbow of colors.

There are oranges, yellows, and reds, yes that’s obvious.  But look closer… the leaves still have green, as do pears and apples.   There are jewel tones – look at the figs and plums.  I wrote a post here about using pinks for Fall.  Metallics also go very well with Fall decor!  There are shades of brown from wheat and drying grasses. You can paint your own pumpkins to get the color you want – there are tons of tutorials on Pinterest.  Can’t find a color you like? Velvet pumpkins come in a variety of colors too.

Look to your own garden for Fall table decor. I’m sure you can find something to bring in and use on the table! And if you want the easiest way of using non traditional colors on your Fall table, just create a floral arrangement of whatever you desire and then throw a few white pumpkins on it!

That concludes my Fall tablescape tour.

Sharing my Fall tiered tray today! Ever since I decorated my tiered tray for late Summer decor, I have been excited to decorate it for every season.

This time I used the Spode blue herb jars I found at Home Goods earlier this year.  I filled the cinnamon one with the cinnamon sticks!

I mixed the colors of the faux apples for this Fall tray and added some faux pumpkins. Fall tiered tray

This year for my French country Fall mantle I looked to the garden.  The olive garden! No, not The Olive Garden! Although I am hungry and could go for some Olive Garden right now.

Fall mantle

First I started with some freshly clipped olive branches as my base.  I remembered I had my faux olive trees  and set them up next.  (Hard to tell their fake, right? Especially right next to the real thing!)

Some fairytale pumpkins found their way home with my from the pumpkin patch.  I have decided I love green hues on this mantle.  The girl in her green dress pops with other greens below it.

Today I have for you a home tour full of French Country Fall home decor!  This part of the tour is what I’m calling the frou frou French country part of the tour.

pink velvet pumpkin

If you follow me on Instagram you know that I’ve posted this picture, which many people loved! I was a bit surprised by how many likes it received but then again, it is quite pretty.  It actually was a bit of an accident, I was moving things around and had set this pink velvet pumpkin in this container temporarily… and then noticed it looked good and then voila! We have the finished product.

What I didn’t share is that this pink velvet pumpkin sitting on my new antique French piano!  Ooooh-la-la! Some friends of my family were downsizing their antique collection and this was for sale… I knew I had to have it.  I’d been looking for a piano for a while and this is just perfect!

Romantic French country Fall decor

I do need to get it re-tuned but it does work! I absolutely love all of the little details on the piano, look at the little carving below! French country Fall decor

Dried roses from the garden adds a feminine touch to Fall decor.

On the other side of my frou frou French sitting room are these velvet pumpkins.  Yes, that is a harp you see in the background… I suppose I should call it my little French music room! Uh oh, I am thinking I might have another Christmas tree idea.

The mini vases, which are actually candles, were from Pierre Deux (oh how I miss that store!).  The middle one is a Madeleine pot that I have yet to plant anything it despite owning it for years!

I was going for simple decor in this area. Less is more with French country Fall home decor.

I love the velvet pumpkins and just had fun moving them here and there around the house.

Circling back into the entry way, sunflowers shine here.  I love how they pull out the gilding on the painting.

A few fairytale pumpkins sit on the shelf, matching the color of the marble.
In the hallway, a few more velvet pumpkins are perched on this frou frou French piece.

I’m so excited to be participating in a late Summer/Early Fall decorating blog hop!  We are sharing how we decorate for the transition between seasons.

A big thank you to Amber at Follow the Yellow Brick Home for arranging these tours.  If you are coming from Judith at Botanic Bleu (a fellow Francophile) then welcome! If you’re just joining here, then also welcome!

Transition Summer to Fall decor

Today I am sharing a tiered tray in my kitchen.  When I think of late Summer, I think of sunflowers.  So I used faux sunflowers as a base for a pop of color.  Then I started putting other pieces around them.

Tiered Tray for late Summer

Apple season will be here before pumpkin season, so these mini faux green apples I thought were perfect for this transitional decor piece!  The faux florals were the only thing I bought for this vignette, but I know I’ll use them again and got them for a deal at Michael’s.

early Fall tiered tray

Then I walked around my house and shopped my home. Do you do that? I was picking up various things that reminded me of the Fall.  I dug through the cabinet and oh, what’s that, a tea cup for Thanksgiving… perfect colors for my tiered tray.

late Summer decor

Below, an antique chicken and chick vase figurine and a handmade little snail box.  Tiered Tray for Fall

The Bavarian bear reminds me of Oktoberfest which starts in September.  He is actually a little smoker.  The vintage transfer ware cow creamer matches all the other china pieces.
early Fall decorVarious other trinkets were gathered… a fig scented candle. Mini white vases.  Things to “fill it up”.  Transitioning Summer to Fall Decor

Here are some decorating elements you can use to transition from Summer to Fall:

  • apples
  • sunflowers
  • twigs or old wood
  • dried flowers, such as hydrangeas
  • leaves that are more green in color, as it is early Fall
  • copper and brass accents
  • Fall colored throws
  • corn

If you want to go full on Fall, you can start putting little pumpkins in your decor, but if you are still feeling like you’re not done with Summer, I’d say to avoid the pumpkins.

Tomorrow I am participating in a Summer to Fall transitions home tour.  Many talented bloggers are sharing their homes with how we decorate during this time of year.  Amber at Follow the Yellow Brick Home has arranged this one day tour and I’m so excited.

At this time of year, it can be easy to switch to full on Fall, but sometimes it seems a little funny putting out pumpkins when it’s early/mid August and it is still 100 degrees.  Here in blogland we often transition to Fall earlier than others, in order to provide inspiration to our readers before the actual season.  This makes sense, right?

So we are transition from Summer to Fall, it seems many of us like to use apples to do that! Here are some preview pictures, in no particular order!

Fall Pillow Round-Up

I know it is still Summer but I’m starting to think about Fall.  If you aren’t ready for Fall, skip this post and come back to it when you’re ready.

I’ve rounded up some of my favorite Fall pillows.  Changing out some decorative pillows in your house is an easy way to add seasonal decor without going overboard.

Many of the pillows I’ve linked today are actually pillow cases.  This is great for storage so you don’t have to store 50 extra pillows.  There are these wonderful square pillow inserts, this link is to the 18×18 pillows, which are under $8. At that link there are also tons of different sizes of square pillow foam inserts for all of your pillow needs.

A few tips about pillows – if you have 18×18 pillow cases, usually a 20×20 pillow insert looks better.  The down/feather inserts will make the pillow look more expensive than the foam inserts.

Now, let’s get started. Pottery Barn is a great source for seasonal pillows.

A Neutral French Country Fall Mantle

Sharing my Fall mantle today.

This year I stuck with the theme -inspired by the garden.

Miniature topiaries mimic those founds in gardens.  A faux-owl candle appropriately perched next to the little tree.

 

Clippings from olive trees in the yard provide the soft and natural foliage for this mantle.

 

Mini white pumpkins are sprinkled along the mantel as well.

 

I love the color scheme of my Fall mantle this year.

 

White and green. Hmm. Reminds me of Christmas.  Which, by the way, is just around the corner.

 

Although, I mentioned Christmas was around the corner, when really, it is Halloween! By the time I have posted this it is about time to post a Halloween mantle!!

Top 12 Best Scented Candles for Fall

We use affiliate links in our posts and our site. This means if you make a purchase using these links, we may earn a small commission. You don’t pay a cent more than you would otherwise! Our full disclosure is available under About.

*Updated September 2019!*

The best scented candles for Fall all in one place! I absolutely love Fall and find that I start this time of year burning candles almost every single night up until Spring!
I thought I would share my favorite Fall candles with you all since I consider myself a candle connoisseur.

Nest Pumpkin Chai Candle  – Notes of wild pumpkin, spicy masala chai, cardamom, ginger and cinnamon. I love this candle but it is a bit speedy.

Diptyque Feu de Bois – one of the most unique smelling candles and a favorite! This sophisticated blend of rare woods recalls the crackling of an open fire.

Diptyque Amber  – I love this amber candle too! A warm and elegant procession of the woods vetiver and patchouli, enhanced with radiant aniseed, insolent spices, mysterious incense, cistus and Tonka bean.

Yankee Candle Autumn Wreath – there is a large following of Yankee Candle lovers, and with their price point and large selection of scents, it is easy to see how it is favorite.  This Autumn wreath candle smells of autumn leaves and cinnamon apples.

Yankee Candle Spiced Pumpkin – a captivating scent of pumpkins baked in simmering spices of clove, nutmeg and cinnamon.  I have not personally burned this one because I am not a huge spice pumpkin candle fan, but it does smell really nice if that is your jam!

Bath and Body Works Marshmallow Fireside– Like Yankee Candle, there is a large Bath and Body works following too.  I love the Marshmallow Fireside candle and actually burn it until February! It smells of Toasted Marshmallow, Smoldering Woods, Fire Roasted Vanilla, and Crystallized Amber.

Bath and Body Works Leaves – another Fall favorite as it smells of Crisp Red Apple, Golden Nectar, and Warm Clove Spice.

Bath and Body Works Autumn – A nice fresh scent for fall, it smells ofRed Gala Apple, Juicy Fig, Eucalyptus Leaf, Fir Balsam.


Bath and Body Works Sweet Cinnamon Pumpkin – Now I mentioned that I don’t usually care for pumpkin spice candles themselves, however this one has a stronger scent of cinnamon and I love it. Smells like pumpkin bread, or per the website: harvest Pumpkin, Spiced Clove, Vanilla Cream, Brown Sugar

Voluspa Baltic Amber – Baltic Amber blends notes of amber resin, sandalwood, cedar and vanilla bloom. It is one of Voluspa’s top sellers, and when you burn it you’ll know why.  Great candle, and it’s American made.

Voluspa Bourbon Vanilla – smells of fragrant vanilla beans.  Reminiscent of baking.

Jo Malone English Oak and Redcurrant – This candle is new this year.  “Heart Note: Rose, as the fragrance unfurls, this opulent floral, with its spicy, honey facets wraps the scent with sumptuous texture. Base Note: Roasted Oak, a warm and compelling woody note that gives the addictive quality of roasted oak. The forest at dawn. The juicy bite of redcurrant. The zest of green mandarin. The freshness of rose softened with white musk.” I have not personally burned it, but I have played around with the cologne in the store and thought – oh, it would be perfect as a candle!
