At Home With Sarah: Fall Decor

Ye-Hello!

The cool air is slowly finding it's way into the southern atmosphere, leaves are changing & with each breeze slowly falling from the trees as if dancing to a divine melody. 

This week we are at home with Sarah, our co-founder and her own fall decor ideas. Typically she pulls out her box of decorations boasting hues of orange, red, brown & yellow. But, this year she wanted something fresh & new. Something simple yet charming. 

Yellow has been finding it's way into her home over the past year. Little pops here & there give this neutral loving gal glimpses of the unexpected. 

Yellow: fresh & fall all wrapped up in one color!

Here's just a few ways she used it in her fall decor.

An antique entry table used as a catch all gets spruced up with a bright bouquet of yellow leaves. 

Tip: Preserved leaves are often wrinkled & folded up when you buy them. A quick fix is to iron them out. Be sure you are working with real leaves & be patient. This does take some time but well worth it!

A grapevine pumpkin was spruced up with bendable rope. We love finding ways to re-purpose existing items! An antique letter holder keeps mail & catalogs organized & smaller items neatly organized.

This antique mantle is Sarah's favorite place to decorate for the holidays. Built in the 1920's, it's the perfect place for her aqua Ball jar collection as well.

The ceramic owl was a thrift store find originally from Z Gallerie. Sarah collected the brass taper holders for her wedding & uses them often in her home decor.

A side table gets dolled up with some dried billy balls & a white pumpkin placed on a stack of vintage books. Billy balls are a great way to add a fun touch to anything from decor to tables capes & can be found at your local wholesale florist.

We still love apothecary jars for their versatility. Sarah simply filled hers with dried yellow leaves, added a funky gold accessory & threw in a couple pumpkins on her buffet.

Lastly, glass shadow boxes are everywhere right now & can be filled with anything your heart desires. Sarah usually puts one of her baby succulents in this one but opted for some bright moss & a small pumpkin for fall. Placed on a vintage handmade doily it makes itself at home on her rustic coffee table. 

We hope you're feeling inspired!
