Personally, looking outside is the best way to get ideas flowing through my mind.
Tried out some fun ideas, and maybe you'd can take some of these ideas for your own place.
1. Bowl of Red and Green- With the Holidays coming up so soon ( I can't believe it), try to get into the season. It comes once a year, and it's always fun. In your kitchen mix red fruits (think Apples, Pomegranates), with something green (I used limes) into a glass bowl. It's a fun decorating piece, and it's very affordable.
2. Fall Leaves- these leaves are the perfect shades of yellow, green, and red. So grab some of the leaves on the floor (preferably with the some stems) and place them in a vase.

3. Candles- Find an abstract piece of wood that you can place in the center of your dining room table. Cut small holes in the wood with a knife, and place candles in them. This idea is a little more time consuming, but the end result looks great.
4. Pumpkins- Something so simple can be used in so many different ways. If you're not a fan of using them for pies- creating pumpkin fall decor are perfect for the season. You can either decorate the pumpkin to what you prefer, and place in front of your door steps, or table. Another idea is simply placing a several small pumpkins in a corner of your kitchen/ living room with some candles, pears, and apples surrounding them. Makes a beautiful center piece.
The Holidays are about family, new beginnings, and a calm you. Practice the things that make you happy, and enjoy your moments with loved ones.
I like these ideas, Nikki! I've also cut branches with gold and red leaves (maples and oaks are particularly nice) and stood them up in a tall vase to add color to my living room. Pine cones also make nice decorations.
ReplyDeleteI love the idea of the maples and oaks. I am definitely going to have to try that out!
