Ushering in Fall with small simple decor ideas

If you saw my other tour here and my kitchen , you know that the great pumpkin isn’t getting a tremendous amount of pomp and circumstance this year around Duke Manor Farm. And for no other reason other then that I feel that small subtle changes can usher in a new season just as well, don’t you think? Besides, the local pumpkin patch hasn’t received the mother load of pumpkins yet.

Add a complementary color to your current color palette

This year I decided to throw in a little mustard color with my navy color palette in our keeping room to usher in the fall season. The color is perfect for the season and also a great complement to the blues that are in the space. I picked the pillows up at Home Goods along with the fun plaid throw that is so so soft. We are a throw kinda family. I only wish there were 2 of them in the store. Guess we’ll be fighting over this one. This faux fur pillow always makes an appearance this time of the year.

Cut stems from the yard …and add feathers

My blue plush pumpkins that I have had for a few seasons are stacked with some white and rattan ones in a wicker tray. I added a little whimsy to my magnolia stems and snuck in a few blue feathers….just for fun. By the way, magnolia stems are great for your floral arrangements alone or with other seasonal blooms.  And they last a long time too.

  1. Love your bright and beautiful keeping room with the blues and touch of mustard for fall. So pretty! Thank you so much for sharing your home and being a part of my fall tour this year.

  2. Oh, your home is gorgeous with all of those rich blues. I love the contrast with the gold accents. What a pop!

  4. Love the pops of mustard with the blue. In fact, I love the freshness of this space with bright jewel tones and only a very few traditional elements. It’s very much how we roll around here since Fall comes late in the season to our state. Touches are just wonderful! Susie from The Chelsea Project

  6. This is just so stunning. I love this color combo and it is so vibrant and unique. Thank you for this inspiration. Your home looks amazing dressed up for fall.

  8. Laura your home is so beautiful and your white and navy color palette is right up my alley…..love the teals mixed in too!

  14. Beautifully done, Laura! I adore the mustard color mixed with the blue touches in your home and that you chose to forego pumpkins for fall this year. Why haven’t I thought of that?!?
