As we turn the calendar to September, (how did we get here so fast?) Bits of fall decor will be making its way into nooks and crannies around the house. I love fall and all that comes with it. The cooler nights and warm days. The turning of the leaves into an array of abundant color. The smell of wood stove smoke in the air. The urge to nest and make soups and homemade breads. Biting into the sweetness of a fresh crisp apple. Burning pumpkin spice candles. Oh I could go on and on.
All of these things tend to give us that cozy feeling of a simpler time we all long for.
The idea of changing your decor out for every season is also a way to bring that feeling to the inside of your home. It doesn't have to be a total transformation. Just a few things.
Put a Pumpkin candle in your kitchen window sill, drape a fall leaf garland over a mirror, Put a collection together of pumpkins or gourds and indian corn to make a small centerpiece on you table. You get the idea. Its all these fun little things that get your creative juices flowing and help you create a home of distinction one room at a time.
Debbie, I can so relate to the nesting/making soup thing and love your fall vignettes. It has cooled off here in MA this week, so I am getting fall fever, too.

I think maybe fall is the "best- smelling" season of all :) Loved your post!
