About this
A fall home tour post from Clean and Scentsible, part of the Eclectically Fall Home Tours blog hop hosted by Eclectically Vintage and featuring Good Housekeeping. Part one walks through the front porch, entryway and dining room, showing how the author mixes neutral fall pieces with pops of red, orange and yellow. It documents the mums and pumpkins on the porch, owl decor, printables, a terrarium, a boxwood wreath, and a seasonal mulled apple cider beverage bar. The post is largely decor inspiration rather than a true party plan.
The plan
- Start holiday decorating with the front porch, since it sets the tone for the rest of the house
- Part two shared the following week — Divide the home tour into two parts: part one covers the front porch, entryway and dining room, part two covers the kitchen and living room
- Echo the same look throughout the house by pairing neutral pumpkins with pops of fall color
- Refresh the terrarium with each season change
- Set up a little seasonal beverage bar, as done in past years
- Print the free fall printable from the blog to use at home
- Print the fall watercolor printable from Place of My Taste for the dining room
- Use the free fall printable to dress up a boxwood wreath for the season
Decoration ideas
- Load the front porch with colorful mums paired with more neutral white and blue pumpkins
- Carry the neutral-pumpkin-plus-fall-color combination through the rest of the house with red, orange and yellow accents
- Display a box picked up from Home Goods on the porch
- Reuse hanging baskets left over from summer baskets a couple of years ago, planted this year with smaller mums instead of pumpkins
- Place owl decor throughout the home
- Fill a DIY wine crate made a few years ago with baby boo pumpkins instead of storing it with summer decor
- Hang a print found at Paper Source near the entry so its quote is read coming and going
- Add pussy willow branches and a couple of faux stems to an owl umbrella stand for extra color in the corner
- Print the fall watercolor printable from Place of My Taste for the dining room
- Go more neutral at the other end of the dining room with white pumpkins, wheat and cotton stems
- Refresh a terrarium for the season
- Dress up a preserved boxwood wreath from Decor Steals with a free fall printable
- Use a tiered tray on the dining table and wood slices to lift plates and other pieces
- Style a grey sideboard with crisp fall colors for contrast
- Front entry hallway wall color is Old Soul by Benjamin Moore
Food & drink
- Mulled apple cider served at the seasonal beverage bar, which the author says tastes just like fall
