FALL IN LOVE WITH TEXAS BLOG TOUR


Welcome to the Fall In Love With Texas Blog Hop!
I am so happy to have you here!

Today I am proud to be part of the three day Fall In Love With Texas Blog Tour.
Sixteen talented bloggers and three days to enjoy lots of Fall decor inspiration.


Day 1

Day 2

Day 3


I love this time of the year!
Not only because the temperatures in Texas are finally going down a bit (although the air conditioner is still on 24/7) but also because I love Fall colors and how they look in our home.

Today I put together a small Fall home tour of what I have done so far. For now, I have just decorated our 
living areas and I am currently working on our front and back porch.



I will be adding fall flowers to the porch soon, since they are just barely showing up at the stores.
For now, I made some new pillows and bought a cute truck pillow at Kirklands and a new wreath.






Come on in!
On the stairwell bench you will find some new pillows and I also decorated the small hall table by our kitchen.







The kitchen and family room are the areas I always make the most changes to.
I love to create a new vignette on our island every season.





And add a few fall touches to the breakfast area.





Our family room











A few homemade pillows and and a fall basket vignette complete the decor in the room where we spend 
most of our time.





I am still working on our back porch.
This is what I got done so far.


I want to thank Stacey at Poofing the Pillows for inviting me to be part of this fabulous fall blog hop and thank you also to Katie at Hyacinths For The Soul for helpings us organize everything. 
Enjoy all the wonderful posts from our Texas bloggers!

Until next time!

    1. Thank you, Susie! After I made the pillow covers, I still had some fabric leftover, so I tried my hand at making a matchin fabric pumpkin. :) It is not perfect, but I had fun putting it all together.

  9. Elena, from front porch to back porch and everything in between, you have created a lovely "fallscape" throughout your home. Each little vignette tells a story with interesting pieces. Love your front porch bench with the pillows and the front door wreath is spot on. Happy to be on the tour with you.

  14. Your front area is so welcoming, and I love your pillows on the bench. Did you make the black and white checked pumpkin, too? Your ribbon on the wreath ties everything together. All your rooms and your back porch look so cozy and inviting. I particularly love your island vignette with the tiered stand. Thanks for sharing with us!

  20. Maria,
    You home is so beautifully decorated for Fall. The pillow with the farm truck filled with pumpkins goes so well with your black and white checks. Everything looks like Fall, but so elegantly.

    1. Thank you so much, Lisa! It has been hectic around here, so it has taken me a while to add some fall to the house. The hot weather we are having doesn't help any either :) Enjoy your Sunday!

  22. Beautiful, Maria! The best is the detail in your decor, and knowing so much of it is handmade by you. As always, I love your pillows and vignettes. You inspire.

    I downloaded the "Fall" printable, the trees falling leaves you posted. I decided to have them printed at Walgreen's because my printer is never that great, and then I had a glitch. My daughter is going to take over for me. Hopefully I will have them before winter!!
