The weather has dropped to 88 degrees with the recent cold front and it’s making me want to celebrate the new season. It has been a while since I have shared a Pinterest-inspired post and decided that the new fall season was a perfect opportunity to do just that. I have a few things to share, all having to do with autumn, because I am ready to bring the new season into my home.
First up, this beautiful fall mantel. I was instantly drawn to that starburst mirror, that the author of the post actually made herself, because it reminds me so much of my own. Then I noticed how cohesive the entire display looked. The wooden pumpkin, those rustic vases, the owl and the leaf garland are all the perfect accessories to surround the mirror. I hope I can create something just as beautiful. And when I do, you will be the first to see it.
As you all may know, my goal this past year has been to cultivate my green thumb. Which is probably why I was instantly drawn to this pumpkin planter, that the author describes as a “mumkin”, which I think is just adorable. The brown satin bow adds the perfect fall touch to this fall centerpiece. You better believe you will see this around my living room soon.
I have been awaiting the fall season to arrive so I can start to make some new wreaths. Last year I discovered a love for them after making a Halloween monster wreath. But I recently handed it off to my nephew for him to enjoy and so I could have a reason to make a new one. I am definitely inspired by this Dia de los muertos-esque wreath shown above.
Now for some miscellaneous inspiration. Y’all have to know how obsessed I am with all things nails. And lately, matte has been my thang. I can totally see myself rocking these all month long. I hope y’all follow the link and try out some of the other fall mani trends they included like mixed prints, 3D accents and jewel tones.
I have only talked a bit about my recent transition to eating clean. Experimenting with new recipes has been my newest obsession. This blog has been such a huge inspiration with her “cheap clean eats” recipes. Check them out, they are all delicious and well, cheap. I can’t wait to try these pumpkin pancakes soon!
How have you welcomed the new season?
