Pulling Fall Decor Together For A Tour. I love hosting our Seasonal Home Tours, they are so much fun. Getting ready for one is fun too, but it sometimes creates a huge mess before it is done. I like to have the possibility of a couple of color schemes in mind when I start. I also want to go around the house and gather up a lot of accessories that I think would work for fall vignettes. That means going through every room, the garage stash and my dish closet that holds a ton of pillows and other accessories too.
I put a lot of the accessories that I think I might use on the dining room table. It usually starts small and grows as I collect things from all over.
I also like to pull a bunch of pillow covers out of the stash with the colors I am considering using.
Then I start playing with different combinations. I don’t remove some of the existing pillow covers I am currently using, I just lay a different pillow cover over it and see if I like the combination. They’re not tucked in, just laid over an existing pillow, but you can get the idea. I also like to try a few throw blankets with each combination too.
I like this milk-chocolate combination. I love the old-world print on the throw and how it adds more character to the pillow combination.
The solid suede pillow is nice with this combination too.
I haven’t quite figured out what color these pillows are. They have a lot of gold in them with some light and then a bit of orange with other light. They make a pretty combination at any color.
Sometimes just a combination of velvet Fall Colors works wonders. Simple and so many possibilities for other accessories. Dark green, sage green, and rust.
A different combination of pretty chocolate browns. This one has a fun “Love” pillow.
For just plain fun there is nothing like a William Morrison Fox pillow. He is just the cutest, and the colors are fabulous.
Replace the dark green pillow with a rust colored one and you have a totally different feel. I think I am partial to the rust pillow.
Ok, now I need to pic a color scheme and start putting this room together. I’ll show you how I create different vignettes too. So come back for the next installment.
Oh boy! I have the same pile on my living room floor!!! Good heavens. 😆 I DO love that fox pillow. I may have to order one myself. 😊
I can’t wait to see what you settle on. You have so much to choose from. Clever way to do the pillows without having to switch them out and break a nail!
Have fun decorating. I love the fall and cannot wait to decorate my new home this year.
Nice pillow cover collection. The fox one is over the moon beautiful!
