With fall just around the corner, it seems that our hearts start to be drawn to things that are cozy. Warm blankets, chunky sweaters, spiced candles… just thinking about the warmth of fall makes me SO excited. Whether you are all into pumpkins or simply enjoy tonal fall colors, this excitement frequently carries over into seasonal home décor, so I thought I might create a quick roundup of items that celebrates seasonal fall décor that is both cozy and kind. As I have been trying to avoid the pull of constant consumerism, I have recently been focusing my purchases on quality items versus just the quantity of items. Quality of materials, process and even more importantly, message. Today, each of the pieces within this roundup support the fight against our modern day slavery: human trafficking. Whether made by….
Fall is one of my favorite seasons. If asked about my favorite season, I typically say the months stretching from the end of September to halfway through January qualify as my favorite, simply because the weather is cooling, holidays are happening and in general, the mood is extremely festive. I could go on and on about my favorite things during this time of year, but as most of these months end up being in the season of fall, if I had to pick one season as my favorite, that would be it. During this time of year, there are so many things to celebrate and cozy ways to bring the season into your home. As you are preparing your home décor for fall, I hope that each of these fall décor finds help to inspire an environment for many wonderful and cozy moments …..

In the late 1800’s, English textile designer, William Morris, famously stated that you should, “have nothing in your house that you do not know to be useful, or believe to be beautiful”. While this quote is so simple, it can be challenging to keep our homes and lives paired down to items that fit within those two categories. But, regardless of the challenge, I think that Morris was onto something. By managing clutter, we cut down on the time and energy consuming task of tending to so many ‘things’, while simultaneously breeding both an internal contentment and a rejoicing in pieces which are beautiful. In turn, rejoicing in something beautiful ultimately brings us back to celebrating that which is good, lovely and a reflection of the creativity of God. This quote, and the thoughts I had following it, inspired me to create a fall tablescape that was full of the natural, beautiful expression of our God’s creativity that is on display all around us in this fall season: pumpkins and dahlias. Full of texture, interest and a bountiful display of color, this easy fall centerpiece highlights the best of the season….
I love candles. There is something about having a candle lit in the background that instantly makes a space more cozy, scented and overall, pleasant. In a season that beckons us to nestle in and cozy up, fall seems to just scream for them. In recent years though, it feels like candles went from being the sweet little, $5 shopping treat to a full $15 or $20 gift. So, it got me thinking, why not make my own where I can determine exactly the scent and style while being less of an investment? After a bit of research and antique thrift store scavenging, I found the perfect pieces to repurpose into, not one but TWO, fall candles perfect for our home for less than $10. If you are up for a little DIY-ing this fall, try this thrift store transformation and…
