Here in Pennsylvania, Brenda and I are definitely noticing the shift into fall. The cooler mornings and changing light have me thinking about some easy fall decorating ideas to bring warmth and farmhouse charm into our home.
I’ve started reaching for a blanket when I sit on the porch with my coffee, and the hot tub and fire pit are feeling more inviting in the evenings. Our gardens are looking a little tired after their summer show, and I’m savoring every last chance to wear my favorite sundresses before the weather turns. With our school-age grandkids back in class, it truly feels like the season has shifted — and I’ve begun slipping mustard and rust accents into my décor as a way to welcome autumn indoors.
If you love summer as much as Brenda and I do, it can be hard to say goodbye to those long, sun-filled days. But with a few easy fall decorating ideas, your home can feel cozy and inviting for the season ahead. There’s something so comforting about the arrival of fall — the chance to get cozy again, add layers of warmth to our homes, and enjoy the golden glow of the season. You don’t have to make big changes to capture that feeling. Just a few thoughtful swaps — in pillows, wall art, florals, and tabletop accents — can shift your home from summer’s light and breezy mood to autumn’s warm embrace.

A Celebration of Harvest and History
Halloween, also known as All Hallows’ Eve, is a delightful time of the year when creativity, spookiness, and history come together to transform our homes into enchanting, eerie, and fun spaces. It’s a time of year filled with spooky fun, but most of us prefer to decorate for a not-so-scary Halloween.
Halloween finds its origins in ancient Celtic and European traditions, particularly the celebration of the harvest. It was a time when communities came together to reap the rewards of their hard work, give thanks for the bounty of the land, and prepare for the darker, colder months ahead. Today, when we decorate our homes with pumpkins, gourds, and autumnal colors, we pay homage to these ancient traditions of celebrating the harvest. Halloween is a time to appreciate the changing seasons, the bounty of nature, and the joy of gathering with loved ones. It’s a reminder that even as the days grow shorter and the nights darker, there is beauty and magic in the world around us.
