I love Fall.  It’s my favorite season.  And with a newer house, it’s fun to decorate for the seasons using decorations you’ve had for years, and adding a few new each year.

I usually start decorating for fall in mid to late September.  I add a few Halloween decorations throughout October and then more Thanksgiving related in November.  But the “Fall” decor can stay basically until December.  And since it’s my fave, it makes me very happy.

I love changing the front entry and living room decorations for the seasons even though we don’t use that area that much.  The console table by the front door has some fall leaves, a straw acorn, a glittery pumpkin, and some candles scattered across it.  On my white couch in the living room, I always change out the pillows for the seasons.

Scattered around the Family Room and dining area are some random pieces to add some color to our most lived in spaces.  I don’t do a lot, other than the mantel area (pic at top) because we do truly live in this space.  There are always drink glasses, computers, magazines, remotes, shoes, and toys around.  Lots of toys.  As you can see on the pic with the red circles, my grandson decorates too.  Those are Hot Wheels cars he has strategically placed in the stones of the fireplace.  Not sure why, but it’s his own design.

Outside decor is fun but I don’t really do a lot of over the top stuff.  I have some ghosts and skeletons, some orange lights (can’t see them in the photo) and other little random things.  I love my hay bales, pumpkins, and my FALL sign.  I added the Fall sign this year and also found a similar one for Christmas that says JOY.

So, that’s most of my Fall decor for October.  Can’t wait to get started on the Thanksgiving and Christmas decorating.
