I feel like I’m repeating myself when I say I LOVE FALL (because I am!), but I really do so love this season! I’m super excited for cooler temperatures (they will get cooler, right?), orange and yellows outdoors, and pumpkin-all-the-things. I habitually do a few things every year around this time to get my home ready for the new season.
- Bring out all the throws. The softer, the better. I especially love this one.
- Candles. I love candles any time of year, but I especially love burning them in the fall. There is just something cozy and homey about a flaming scented candle. My favorite are the Bath and Body 3-wick candles.
- More pillows for the couch. I am loving all things ‘map’ lately, so this pillow totally speaks my love language.
- Heavier blankets on the bed. We keep our house really cool all year long, but it gets especially cold in the fall and winter. I got rid of all our bedding when I bought this new comforter, but I’m looking at something a bit heavier for fall. I really like this venice set from Parachute Home. (PS: Parachute Home partners with Nothing But Nets and for every venice set purchased, Parachute Home donates one life-saving bed net to a family in Africa. In area’s with high coverage, bed nets can reduce the rates of malaria by 90 percent!)
- Keep coffee mugs at the ready. Coffee for me, hot chocolate for the girls and Justin–we are always ready for a hot beverage during the colder months. The bigger the mug, the better. I love to have several large mugs available. These fiesta mugs are my favorites right now.
Have I forgotten anything? What do you like to do to make your home ready for fall?
