Look What I Found For Fall!

September 22, 2021 By Juliet 15 Comments

“Life starts all over again when it gets crisp in the fall.”

~ F. Scott Fitzgerald, The Great Gatsby

Pumpkins in Planter

Last night was the harvest moon and tomorrow it’s officially fall.

It’s time.

To pull down the fall decor bins

Fall Foyer Decor

Last year, our first fall season at Snowberry, I shared my tips for adding seasonal decor to your home without driving yourself insane.

This year, I’m taking my own advice.

I tried holding off buying real pumpkins until October.

But, the next couple of weeks are super busy so it’s happening tomorrow.

Yep, tomorrow.

Pumpkin Display on Porch

The porch pumpkins are coming.

And I’ve done a little shopping.

Very little.

Here’s what’s new.

Bright Orange Fall Flowers

First Impressions

It’s important to make a good first impression.

So most of my energy is devoted to the front porch.

I ordered this eucalyptus and lambs ear wreath for the front door.

Isn’t it pretty?

After Thanksgiving I’ll add a festive ribbon and it will see me through the holidays.

Are you a fan of the layered doormat look?

About a month ago I picked up this woven doormat to layer over a plaid rug.

I love the combination of neutral and plaid tones and can’t wait to set them out.

Last but not least my doorstep lantern.

I’ll fill it with little pinecones and mini pumpkins.

Snowberry’s front porch will be fall-ready by the weekend.

 

 

Making an Entrance

Sticking with  a neutral theme, I found this  cotton and cashmere throw for my foyer bench.

And, a subtly striped lumbar pillow.

I’ll top it with an ivory, cloth pumpkin.

And, that will be that.

 

 

In the Kitchen

The kitchen is my favorite (ahem … easiest) place to add a touch of the season.

Wooden bowls and platters filled with colorful, in-season fruits and veggies.

A quick trip to the grocery store or farmers market and you’re set.

Last year I used apples and oranges.

How inventive.

A fall themed cookbook in a cookbook stand is another way to bring the season into the kitchen.

If I’m feeling really on top of things I’ll clip a few branches from the yard and plop them in a vase.

So easy it practically cheating.

 

 

As for the rest of the house …

In the great room it’s all about pillows, throws and pumpkins.

Wicker pumpkins.

Pillows are my weakness and one of the easiest ways to change up a room for the season.

As for throws one can never have too many.

Repeat after me…

Pillows, throws and pumpkins.

Pillows, throws and pumpkins.

Pillows, throws and pumpkins.

Well, I guess it’s time to stop chatting and start doing.

I can’t wait to show off Snowberry decked out for fall.

Stay tuned.

    Just ordered the wreath for our French door In the Family Room. It is so pretty! Btw, the shopping links at the end of your post don’t seem to be working. I used the one in the text and it did work.

Following a week of much sadness our family had a Following a week of much sadness our family had a fun night out to celebrate Jim's 65th birthday. It felt good to laugh, feel loved and to have honest conversation about anything and everything. 

Today on the blog it's Weekend Meanderings with Kim and Elizabeth. The tragedy in Uvalde weighs heavily on our minds and Kim has written eloquently on how we can make difference. 

As for me, I'm sharing my Cannes Film Festival experience, excitement about going to the movies this weekend, gin based spritzer and a bunch of other stuff. Including the pillows in this gorgeous photo from the Kit Kemp Collection for Annie Selkie.

I hope you'll join me, Kim and Elizabeth, today for a bit of shelter from the storm.  Links to our blogs in our profiles.

Cocktails anyone?! It’s Friday ... traditionally Cocktails anyone?! It’s Friday ... traditionally cocktail night at Snowberry. Not tonight. But not to worry, I have cocktail recipes. You know I'm all about weddings (did you read my all-secrets-revealed blog post about @zzzissou and @melodymakhfi wedding? Linked in profile. 😉.) ... so today I'm sharing recipes for Kyle and Melody's signature cocktails.

Hers - Jalapeno Margarita with a Tajin rim (a must, says the bride)

1.5 oz Blanco tequila
Juice of two limes
1 tsp Agave nectar
1 Jalapeno (seeds & ribs removed)
Tajin rimming salt
Lime wedge rim glasses
Jalapeno & lime slice for garnish

Rub lime wedge around rim of glass. Dip rim into Tajin rimming salt. And fill with ice. Muddle jalapeno in cocktail shaker. Add ice, tequila, lime juice and agave. Shake vigorously. Strain into prepared glass. Garnish with jalapeño and lime slices.

His - Old Fashioned (Jim loves an Old Fashioned too, like father like son)

1.5 oz Bourbon
1 sugar cube
A few dashes Angostura bitters
A few dashes of water
Orange slice & cocktail cherry for garnish

Place sugar cube in old fashioned glass, add bitters & water. Muddle until dissolved. Fill glass with ice. Add bourbon. Gently stir. Garnish with orange slice (or zest) and cocktail cherry.

Cheers to you, the happy couple and the weekend! 🥃

It's not too late to check out Weekend Meanderings It's not too late to check out Weekend Meanderings ... on the blog. 

This week I'm extolling the virtues of cinnamon raisin toast. But not just cinnamon raisin toast. A favorite blogger’s new book. You won't believe this but she recently bought a house in our old @myfidalgoislandhome neighborhood? A new-to-me interior design podcast. And inexpensive but well made serving platters ... essential for summer entertaining. Last but not least what my dermatologist recommended for my dry skin. 

You can follow the link in my profile over to the blog, and leave a comment to let me know you stopped by!

Good morning and happy Saturday! Yesterday was #n Good morning and happy Saturday!  Yesterday was #nationalcocktailday and I missed it. Sheesh. What I didn't miss is Weekly Meanderings, my Saturday morning roundup post with @pineconesandacorns and @northerncalstyle. The dogs are walked and its time to sit down with a glass of ice tea (@tejava is back on grocery  shelves!!!) and catch up with Elizabeth and Kim and respond to your kind comments. To read the posts, just click the link in our bios. We have so much fun with this and love and appreciate your support. 

When Jim gets back from the gym 😆 we're going on a little field trip. If you read Weekend Meanderings you can probably figure out where. 😉

Happy weekend, friends!

Holy moly … it’s 43 degrees this morning. Temp Holy moly … it’s 43 degrees this morning. Temps plummeted last night. I guess it’s a typical spring swing. I’m going to take advantage and have my  cocoa in the library. We rarely use this room which is a real shame. Our sweet pups are no longer allowed inside. Dark velvet sofas and white dogs don’t mix. Not true, they do mix … a little too well. 😒 Anyway, they whine outside the door if I go in there. Jim will distract them with toast in his office and I should be good for a short time.

Yesterday I put two open house tours on Reels. I’m still learning and forgot there’s a 60 second limit. The outdoor spaces of the cute 1929 cottage got cut off. 🤦🏼‍♀️ I used a heavier hand editing the second house so it fits … mostly. Anyway, I’m sure you appreciate a more edited version. 😆 I tend to talk, write and record more than is necessary. As Jim says, when you’ve made the sale stop talking. 🤷‍♀️ I visited a 3rd house as well and need to work on it. New open house rule … one per week! 😉

Good morning and Happy Monday! 💙
