Painted Pumpkins & My Weekend

Happy October! Fall is already flying by, and I'm attempting to soak it all in. October is one of the greatest months...fall, football, Halloween, beautiful leaves, pumpkin spice lattes everything...don't you agree? With a new baby, I don't think I'll be able to go all-out with my fall decor, so I painted a few pumpkins over the weekend, and am loving the 'fall feel' they're bringing to my home.

I decided to keep it simple with two matte black pumpkins and one ikat.

How are you decorating for fall? 

We had a busy weekend, and were on the go much more than we have been recently...leaving me feeling exhausted today (lucky for me, Sophia is pretty sleepy as well!).  Continuing with the burgundy trend I posted about last week, I made a quick trip to the nail salon for a mani / pedi. I am obsessed with this color, and even better? It's a shade that compliments all skin tones. 

We hung the Lord Bodner print...so happy with the way it turned out (sorry for the lowqual phone pic)!

Love these two

also loving this deep olive color (blouse) for fall (please excuse the pillows and dirty mirror - oops)

Hope you had a fab weekend! 

Go for the Bold

There's nothing more boring than a house full of 'builder beige' walls (yawn). There are just SO many options when it comes to color, and some of my favorite rooms feature bold or brightly painted walls. Many people are afraid of color, but it really can change the look of a room - in an amazing way. Wallpaper is another great option, but I chose to feature paint because it's easy to change and relatively inexpensive. Here are a few spaces that make my heart pitter patter...

Would you paint any of the walls in your home a bold color?
