Thrifty Decor Chick fall home tour!
I had so much fun adding fall touches to our home this year, and I’m excited to share it with you!
The cooler temps always make me want to add more color, texture and layers to our home. In the new year I prefer a simpler, cleaner look…but this time of year I love how the extra decor makes our house feel so warm and comfy.
One of our local nurseries has a great sale on mums every September, so I always head over and stock up on some plants for the front porch:
At only $6 each, it’s a great deal!
I’ve found that temporarily planting them in pots keeps them looking much better than in their plastic pots. They seem to need a good amount of water, and need plenty of soil at the root system.
I like to combine the fall plants with pumpkins (Trader Joe’s has the BEST prices on the cinderella pumpkins!) and outdoor lanterns.
Did you know you can plant your mums for next year? I plan to finally try this out this year!

The rattan pumpkins were from HomeGoods.
It’s usually super expensive, but I found this one in the store as an online return for more than 75 percent off. What a great find, I’m so pleased with it!
They even have a wand that turns them on and off! So fun!
I love the deep purpley red tones on the leaves.
I’m so glad I finished this wall off with the tile and shelves instead of adding cabinets. It adds such a fun focal point for some decor items and serves as great storage for our wine glasses and coffee supplies:
I only added a few flower stems (real and fake) to this space otherwise, but the colors and textures I decorate with year-round fit in with the fall vibe beautifully:
I had fun adding some fall touches to our dining room as well.
Pine cones in a bowl work for both the fall and winter seasons, so that one will probably stay out for a few months:
Our long dining room window seat is one of my favorite additions in our home! It’s where you’ll find our cats watching the birds every day:
I love anything amber colored this time of year (like those glass votives on the fireplace), so I couldn’t pass up these ribbed glass candle holders from Hobby Lobby a couple months ago:
A plain candle looks so much prettier in that soft amber glass!
I always say changing out your pillow covers and throw blankets goes a long way when decorating for the different seasons.
There are SO many colors available in those velvet options and the quality is excellent!
Our temps are finally cooling down and we’ve had the windows open during the day and the fireplace on every night. We LOVE IT!
Fall is the best…it makes my heart happy.
I hope you enjoyed this little fall tour and got some ideas for your home! I’ll be adding a few Halloween touches next, but I add those to the fall decor I already have out.
I always do a big Halloween village in our basement, and I hope to share that with you this year.
