Fall Home Tour | Part 1 September 10, 2015 | HI! So glad that you’ve found your way here to our Fall Home Tour! If you’re here from Jenna’s beautiful tour at Rain on a Tin Roof, welcome!! Feel like we’ve met before, but you’re not quite sure? No worries, let me explain! I’m Mallory and blogged at Charming in Charlotte for about 2 years. I recently made the switch over to Style Your Senses, and am having so much fun over here! If we haven’t met before at all (sad face), read more about me and my vision for this little space HERE. Now, let’s talk Home Tour! Marty from A Stroll Thru Life was sweet enough to put together a fabulous group of bloggers to show off their transitional Fall Decor and I’m so thrilled to be included. To be honest, we aren’t in full Fall mode yet, but as we wait for the temps to cool down, I was happy to begin to transition our house from breezy to more cozy. I really didn’t have to spend much at all and was able to really make a difference in the spaces that matter to our family. It’s funny, because I have definitely toned down my Fall color scheme from a very jewel-tone base to a more natural and rustic feel. See last years Fall Tour HERE. If you went back to look at last year’s tour, you’ll notice that this chalkboard sign was untouched from last year to now and that’s because I love it and couldn’t bear changing it! To us, these things are what Fall’s all about! I’m usually not a fan of sunflowers for whatever reason, but this season I’m feeling a change of heart. Their bright burst of yellow is so fun with Fall decor. Using these candle holders to display pumpkins gave the vignette some height and was also an unexpected twist. We have a “snack station” in our house at all times and I love to change it out seasonally. For Fall I always have s’mores out and frequently change up the toppings. That way they are easy to assemble and we take them out on the deck on a cool Fall night to roast over the fire pit. Want to see more, check out THIS POST for more Fall Snack Station inspiration. I kept our breakfast table scape pretty simple, but added a few whimsy details to make it more fun. I love the idea of mixing things up by using a very traditional ginger jar to house a fall bouquet and also played with natural elements such as the burlap runner and apple topper to give it a little bit of a rustic feel.

Are you ready to go all Pumpkin Spice Latte full force into Fall or will you wait until the weather cools off to dive in head first? Can’t wait to hear what you’re looking forward to and how you make your homes more cozy when the seasons change. Now for a real treat, you’re headed over to Cassie @ Hi Surgaplum! This girl does it all (I mean she was on the cover of Redbook Magazine last month for crying out loud!!!!) and does it with a colorful and bright style that I adore.

Martina says September 10, 2015 at 12:23 PM Beautiful! Love your touches of Fall! I know what you mean about it being hard to transition to Fall with the temps still so high! Here in NY it’s been in the mid nineties this week….so unusual for this time year!
Jenna says September 10, 2015 at 12:31 PM Hi Mallory, hopping over from Hi Sugarplum, when I saw she mentioned her friend Mallory at Style Your Senses, and I was like, wait, the same Mallory from Charming in Charlotte? But I was waiting on her to announce her new blog name so I could follow along and she never did… did I miss something? I’m just glad Cassie mentioned your name or I would have never known about this new blog of yours! Adding to my feed now…
charmingincharlotte@gmail.com says September 10, 2015 at 12:38 PM Hey girl! Ahhhh I’m so sorry! I thought that I shouted it from the rooftops, but I knew people would be missed, which makes me sad! So glad we are re-united!!! And welcome to the new blog, hope that you like it and find it easier to navigate through! xoxoox
