It's Fall Home Tour Day, and I couldn't be more excited! I'm sharing our family room and breakfast room area with you today.

I'm opening up to doors to our home along with 27 of my blogging friends. I've gotten so many fabulous ideas from them. 

You'll find the entire schedule for the week below. 

I'd like to give a big old thank you to Linda from IT ALL STARTED WITH PAINT. She stepped in for sweet, Marty, this season to organize the fun for us. Marty from A STROLL THRU LIFE started this seasonal tour many years ago. Running a tour is a lot of work. I'm very thankful for the ladies taking care of things for us. 

I am absolutely thrilled to be joining the 28 Blogger Fall Home Tour. This tour is amazing. It's one of my favorites in that it is very eclectic. There is a decorating style for everyone featured this week.

Let's visit the family room first. It opens up to the kitchen. My hubby and I both work from home, so the kitchen and family room is the hub. 

family room with tall fireplace

We built our home 16 years ago. It is a Southern Living House Plan, The Abberley Lane. This room has come a long way. It used to be moss, sage green color. I loved it until I didn't. Ha, ha!

The Agreeable Gray by Sherwin Williams has been perfect. We love it so much. 

family room with tall fireplace

I'm one of those people that is honestly torn with their decor choices. Are you totally confused now?? I love neutral looks as well as color. 

BUT……I've found the secret sauce. 

Neutral walls and furniture are the way to go! Rugs, pillows, and accessories can be changed. This allows you to change your look affordably.

Also on OSH!  Cottage Style Table Vignette

I'm NOT getting on a ladder and painting these walls ever. This neutral color will last us for years to come. We laugh that this will be the last color that they will ever be in our lifetime. 

I'm ok with changing all the other wall colors in the house because I can do it myself.

Similar Round Tray || Chinoiserie Vase || Faux Boxwood || Rug

The fireplace is one of my favorite elements in the family room. The herringbone brick detail and tongue and groove wood work so well together. They are classic. 

The decor arrangement didn't change a lot here. I changed out the small mirror for this brass tray. I changed our candles for pumpkins. The blue and white vase got some fresh hydrangeas clipped from the yard.

Decor TIP: Brass is a great metal to add in the fall. It adds warmth to your vignettes.

Similar Garden Stool || Faux Pumpkins

This little garden stool gets around! She has been on both porches, our bedroom, and the family room. She hasn't even been with us a year. You need a garden stool in your life!

Chinoiserie Balls || Buffalo Check Pillow Covers || Velvet Pumpkins

Bentley always shows up when the camera and tripod come out. I kid you not! He's like a dog diva! He even has his own Instagram account that Ashlyn runs.

fall family room

I've been sick at home with COVID. I'm doing a lot better. I wasn't able to get out to get fresh flowers for the tour, so I shopped the yard. 

Decor Tip: Walk your yard and clip fresh greens and flowers. No flowers? That's ok! Green stems are beautiful on their own. 

That cute little owl trio was my late mother-in-law's. She collected owls. I love using them every fall. 

fall family room

The orange pillows were a fun quarantine find. My daughter was going to Marshall's. I could not go with being sick. Being the sweet girl that she is with a knack for decorating, she face-timed me from the store so I could pillow shop. She did pretty well on these velvet orange pillows. They work beautifully with my existing pillows. They were my only new fall purchase this year.

Navy works with everything!

Do you notice the green stems in the background?  Simply cut them from bushes in the yard. They are perfect for a vase!

All of the colors that I've used this fall are in the main rug.

I didn't realize it until I was photographing that the greens really mimic the painted look on the front of the chest.

I love collecting oil paintings. Ebay is an excellent source!

Our little imperfect secretary was a fabulous Craigslist find for under $200. I love this little guy. All those drawers hold my table runners.

staircase

The staircase is coming right along with the landscape gallery wall. Most were thrift store finds! It's taken several years to collect them. You can see more of it HERE.

Let's move onto the kitchen.

kitchen counters

The kitchen has really changed in the last year. This is my favorite room.  I've made some changes only with paint. We do hope to replace the kitchen island granite in the future with something lighter. 

Check out last weekend's post on Decorating with Vintage Jars & Bottles. 

If you've followed me, you'll know that the breakfast nook has a big change. The walls were pickled green. I finally got my husband on board with painting it. It made a huge difference in brightening up the space. 

fall breakfast room

I painted the walls Simply White which is the same as the trim color in our home….well a lot of it. I'm still working my way around our home painting. I love how bright it feels now. I'm still working on decorating the walls. 

fall breakfast room

The oil painting came from a street vendor in France many years ago. It used to be upstairs. It really gives the white walls nice color. 

breakfast room

The hutch really shines against the white walls.

The antique tole trays used to hang on the walls here. I'm really trying to change the look so I decided not to rehang the collection. I'm still trying to decide how I will use them in the future.

Decor Tip: Mix real magnolia leaves with faux eucalyptus and flowers for a more realistic look. 

breakfast room

We are still working on restoring the giant antique armoire in the garage. It has been a HUGE job. We hired someone to do the wood repair on it. Ashlyn has been doing the sanding and stipping this summer. She is almost done!!!!!! As soon as she is done, we will hire movers to place it in the dining room. That is where I will paint it. It looks amazing. A piece of wood had to be taken out and replaced with new wood. The piece that was removed is on the wall over there. I turned it into a wall hanging. It's a great reminder of the look the armoire had before. 

Also on OSH!  Blue and White Fall Tablescape

I hung my rabbit oil above it. I really like the mix of rustic and glam. I just added twine to all of my cutting boards to hang them here. Instant decor with only having to purchase 3 hooks!

Thanks so very much for stopping by! I'd love for you to PIN!

    Oh my goodness it is all so stunning! I can never tire of seeing your beautiful home change through the seasons!

    I have discovered the same secret decor sauce for my home. I am gravitating more toward traditional color in my accents but love having neutral walls as a backdrop.

    I am still swooning over your dining room changes.

    Love it all! Happy fall!

AD: Call me quirky, but I love a great grocery sto AD: Call me quirky, but I love a great grocery store. I could explore forever. Ashlyn and I enjoy cooking together so shopping for our favorite steak taco night dinner was the perfect opportunity to visit our new @foodlion in the Greenville, SC area. We are no stranger to Food Lion! We shop there when in NC while visiting our family beach cottage. The extra fresh produce and meats section always blows us away. Food Lion prides itself on keeping prices low and passes savings to its customers. Be sure to sign up for an MVP card in-store & online. Swipe to see more + our yummy dinner!

Good morning! Another gorgeous day before the rain Good morning! Another gorgeous day before the rain and cold creep back in. The weather is a big tease around here! A tip & a question! Please read below...help a girl out! 

🌸 Do yourself a favor, when you go to the grocery store....pick up some fresh flowers. They are inexpensive and instantly brighten your day. Change out the water every couple of days and most will last a week. Cut a little off the stems as well. 

👁 I recently had an eye appointment. My doc wrote a prescription for me to get progressive readers. Folks, She said that I need 2.5s! I’m in a 1.75. It’s such a pain. Here’s my question. I can no longer pluck my eyebrows with my magnifying mirror! 🤣 The 52 struggle is real! What’s a girl to do? Become Bert or go to the salon. I don’t wax because it’s too irritating. @ashlyn_little offered to pluck them! 🤣 Anyone else in the same boat? 

Favorite @lovechicos look! My So Slimming Girlfriend jeans are on sale! Today is also the last day of their first-ever warehouse sale!

Curious? Do you make your bed daily? We do! We usu Curious? Do you make your bed daily? We do! We usually have a last one out rule. I just can’t walk in the bedroom with an unmade bed. My dresser may have a pile of folded laundry for a couple of days, but that bed is made! That Amazon blanket is linked in stories. It’s soooo good! 

This is perhaps my favorite look for our master bedroom! Soft toile, linen and leopard print bedding and blankets are so cozy! http://liketk.it/3953P #liketkit @liketoknow.it #StayHomeWithLTK #LTKstyletip @liketoknow.it.home

I have not been this excited about the weekend sin I have not been this excited about the weekend since last weekend! Ha, ha! Happy Friday! No big plans here, but I’m still trying to dress up for a date night in on the weekend. We’ve been eating a lot in the dining room lately. It’s a cozy space with the twinkle lights that I don’t have the heart 
to take down. It’s like feeling like we are in an actual restaurant opposed to the daily meals at the kitchen table. Just that little extra effort makes a difference. #ad

Loving these separates from @lovechicos This lightweight chevron sweater is perfect for now and spring. The lines are so slimming with the flowy ¾ length sleeve. Guess what! My So Slimming Girlfriend Jeans are on sale now thru February 25th! All full-priced jeans are $59!

Been watching the news before cooking dinner and e Been watching the news before cooking dinner and enjoying a glass of wine. It’s heartbreaking seeing what’s going on in Texas. The people, the animals....I pray that everyone finds warmth, food and water tonight. It makes me look ahead to warmer days and carefree times of summer. This photo was last summer....I’m ready for outdoor weather. 🙏

Never regret anything that made you smile. – Mar Never regret anything that made you smile. – Mark Twain 

I’ve been on a no sugar or anything processed lifestyle change going on 7 weeks except for that weekend cheat meal. Spent an afternoon doing a little shopping and indulging in a vanilla chai latte with my daughter, and it made my day! No regrets on the sweet splurge. #ad

This outfit with pieces from @lovechicos has been on repeat the last couple of weeks! I don’t tend to wear bright colors like this in the winter but let me tell you…. this sweater changed my mind! I am sharing 4 fun looks on the blog today with some of my favorite @lovechicos pieces. #lovechicos

These So Slimming Girlfriend jeans are the only ones I reach for these days. They work with boots, heels, flats and sneakers.
