for the kitchen

The heart of the home, which means the perfect place to make some cozy fall pastries and hardy comfort meals for this year’s harvest. This four piece red Le Crueset bake-wear set is the perfect addition to your kitchen to whip up some tasty meals. It is also the perfect color to transition into the Christmas season! The loaf pan is perfect for making this Pumpkin Bread with Cream Cheese Swirl recipe from William Sonoma. The other dishes are great for making an assortment of casseroles like this king ranch chicken casserole from Southern Living. Another small detail to add to the kitchen for this season is a festive hand soap like the fig of provence scent from compagnie de provence. While pumpkin spice is everything nice for the season, we thought to mix it up with a different type of fall aroma!

for the home

How do you get in the fall spirit if you’re not burning a fall candle? Lucky for you, we have some candles in mind that will surely get you in the fall mood (despite what the temperature is outside). From pumpkin clover to spiced pomander, there is a scent for everyone! Despite the Houston weather, one does need a good blanket to cuddle up to when watching your favorite Hallmark or Halloween movie. This herringbone throw is perfect for its versatility of being used or draped over the sofa as a statement piece. Lastly, this pumpkin rattan pot is perfect for bringing some life into your home. Pair it with a fall annual like a colorful celosia or a croton for some greenery!

for the loo

You can’t forget about the loo! There are ways to add a little fall touch in the smaller spaces too. Just like the kitchen, you can add some fall scented hand soap to your countertop. This Nest Autumn Plumb or Pumpkin Chai hand soap will add a nice little punch of fall color! At last, these Molly Mahon x Weezie hand towels are the perfect addition to your hand towel rack for the season or year round.

for the porch

Nothing says fall like a beautiful assortment of live pumpkins and mums displayed on the front porch. Stop by your local nursery to checkout the selections of different shapes and colors! If you’re in Houston, check out Thompson + Hanson for their array of pumpkins and different fall flowers. Here’s a tip: create a mixture of water and bleach to mist or wash your pumpkins. This will help extent their shelf life and prevent them from rotting.
