Designing and creating on a simple budget.

Autumn Is In The Air – Our Living Room

October 1, 2018 our home

Today I am sharing with you some cozy spaces in my house because autumn is in the air!

autumn's in the air fall blog tour fall decor inspiration

Good Morning and welcome to the Autumn’s in the Air Fall Blog tour with Sheila at Maison de Cinq and some of my sweet friends! If you are here visiting from Janet over at Shabbyfufu, I am thrilled to have you here! Janet is incredibly talented and I love to see what goodness she shares throughout the seasons. Today I am sharing a couple of fall decorated spaces that you have not seen yet in our home, our living room and our bedroom as they are all cozy for the fall.

Neutral living room with white couch, a marble fireplace, and blue and white rug.

This is the room that you enter when you come into our home and it serves as our formal living space, guest room and even an office! So it is defiantly multipurpose! I wanted to use this room to show how you can take some versatile pieces to get your spaces ready for the fall season. Those pieces will also be easily incorporated into future seasons as well!

I already shared some of this Instagram stories, but wanted to follow up here too. I bought three cost effective items for this room as I wanted to stay within a budget. The first being a set of striped dishtowels that had all the colors I was looking for as I got the room ready. I simply sewed in a zipper, closed off the edges and ended up with a tasseled new addition! This pillow had the natural autumn tones I wanted, but will get used throughout the entire year.

Large gold mirror above the fireplace, with faux fur in front of it and brass detailing.

The second item I got was  a gold mirrored tray. Trays are great because you can incorporate metals and this gold was the perfect way to bring some more warmth to the room. Plus it will perfect for the Christmas season too!

Coffee table with lit candles on it.

Lastly, I bought this faux eucalyptus that is wonderful for the autumn, but great winter, spring, summer and fall!

Marble fireplace mantel with books on it and a small pumpkin.

Then I already had a couple mini pumpkins that I recycled and sprinkled here and there to make things subtly festive.

Candles on the coffee table that are lit, a mini pumpkin and some books.

And of course I included a couple shorter candlesticks to give the ambience we all crave during the fall (although with candlesticks, I would be very careful that they are not a fire hazard or left alone to burn. These are a bit taller than I would recommend).

Armchair in corner of living room, with a neutral blanket on it and pillow.

I also kept some of my regular decor (plants, pillows and such) as I still am enjoying them without having to change it all.

And here is a peek at our bedroom…

Large bed in bedroom with tufted headboard and a small bench in front of bed with basket on it.

Funny enough, I actually took away from some of the decor here and ended up with less in our room for this season. I was wanting simplicity and more than anything I wanted ambience to steal the show.

Brass chandelier over the bed.

Because when I think of fall, I think of warm glowing lights, slippers, blankets and everything cozy!

I hope you enjoyed and that this post gives you some inspiration as you can see how simple decorating for the fall can be!

Don’t forget to head over and visit Kristen at Ella Claire… She is the sweetest and has gorgeous taste each and every season!

Here is the rest of the tour for you to enjoy as well! Thanks so much for stopping by!

    Your home and style is one of my favorites to visit Annie and I just love your style! I’m really smitten with your marble fireplace surround and how you always pull it together well.

    Your home always feels warm and cozy Annie -but even more so in the fall! And I adore the faux eucalyptus – I probably should buy some considering how often I buy the real stuff, haha!

    thanks so much for joining us – and happy fall to you!

We added the easiest DIY fountain to this area (sh We added the easiest DIY fountain to this area (shared it in stories today) and I can’t tell you enough how nice it is to hear that pretty little sound 🎵 ... I love wind chimes, chirping birds and dripping fountains... So you can imagine how fun it has been to be inside with the windows open and hearing all if those noises at once 💕. This could be a project that would be easily done with inexpensive pieces and makes a big impact for your outdoor space. Speaking of outdoor spaces, I shared ours all ready for summer up on the blog along with my friends. Come check it out if you need some easy ideas!
One bathroom for 4 people can be tricky... 🤪 Bu One bathroom for 4 people can be tricky... 🤪 But in stories I am sharing some tips and tricks for storage in a small bathroom like ours! I am talking about how we use drawers, but try to keep things pretty/functional at the same time... Come check it out and see how we think outside the box when it comes to this space! One of my new favorite tips comes from these 100% Cotton Turkish towels we were gifted from @theloomia! Not only are they pretty, they are large, but save space at the same time... You’ll have to go see what I mean in my stories, see you there! And @theloomia is offering 15% off when you use the code - Zevyjoy15 💕
I am currently working on Everly’s dollhouse and I am currently working on Everly’s dollhouse and adding some fun wall treatments/trim... I only wish real size home DIY’s were as simple as popsicle sticks and wood glue 😂! Come see what I mean on stories... But I did grab some fresh flowers for the yard and shared how I simply decorate for this favorite season of mine, summer ☀️ . It’s all up on the blog and I am joining my friends too so come say hello 💕
I listened to your votes in stories and this old t I listened to your votes in stories and this old thrifted mirror got a few coats of “Play it Cool” (the color I had on hand from our kitchen cabinets 😉). And this hallway is finally done 🎉! Here is a little before and after... The board and batten design is from @anitayokota after I saw how she used it in her pretty bedroom I knew this would put a fun modern spin in the hallway. Some fresh paint, an affordable vintage rug and updated lighting completed this long dark space. Covering popcorn ceilings will come next, but I hope this shows how a little trim and paint go a long way when working on spaces! 🌿
This past week was a time to listen and prayerfully learn. My eyes were opened and my heart convicted to speak up and to do better... While I begin to share my content here, I will strive to move forward for change and find ways to support black lives here and at home.
Please refer to @blackandembodied and @jessicawils Please refer to @blackandembodied and @jessicawilson.msrd for more about this movement. My feed will be muted here as I listen and learn. I will be in stories sharing resources that support black lives. #amplifymelanatedvoices
Clearly blue is on our mind... We both walked out Clearly blue is on our mind... We both walked out dressed sorta matching this morning 😂 This girl knows what she likes and asked to have her pink room transformed with blue... And you know when you give a mouse a cookie... 🍪 (Clearly I am the mouse 🐭 in this story 🤣) We finished up the new bead-board wall (I have trim touch up to do still) and then we are finishing spraying her little desk this afternoon. A couple vintage pieces are on the way, but otherwise I have been shopping the house for this little makeover. It’s all still in progress, but getting closer! And you all... This room is small!! So I am going to share how we tackle storage in this space so stay tuned in stories... 💕
Ever since I was little I can remember my dad tell Ever since I was little I can remember my dad telling me (who is a contractor/designer) the importance of using 3’s 💕. Now as I have made our own home, I almost always use the rule of 3’s whenever I am decorating. That goes for coffee tables, nightstands and more... I’m talking all about it and showing you some examples in stories today! And even more fun is that @boutiquerugs is offering 60% off with the code - ZEVYJOY60 ! This is the new rug we added from their collection to our bedroom here! So enjoy and have fun looking around at all their pretty selections... #boutiquerugspartner
You all know how I feel about pillows by now, don’t you?! 😂 Well in case you don’t... I think they are the best! They pull a space together affordably and make things cozy of course! You can trade them out or just keep adding to them (which is what I like to do 😉). And let’s face it, you can never have too many... Am I right? They are your artistic canvas in home decor and in my opinion there aren’t many rules to follow in the fun of mixing and matching them either! 🌿
Best of all, I’ve teamed up with 7 talented accounts to share how we used pillows to style our spaces. Head on over and check out what they’ve done... @thegingerhome
