Velvet Pumpkins
While sharing some fall decor inspo on my Instagram stories I shared velvet pumpkins from Etsy and wanted them for myself! Hazards of sharing sales and inspo. The ones I originally saw, from the same shop, had more fall-like colors with mustard yellows and olive greens, but then I saw this set with more jewel toned colors like the emerald green. Since I doubted I’d be at my new condo by Halloween (and I was right) I thought the richer colors would be better suited for me since they could easily translate in to decor for the rest of the fall season and Thanksgiving as well. The pumpkins are so cute…

Halloween/Fall Tablescapes
I love sharing tablescape inspo with you guys mainly because it’s an excuse for me to scour the Internet for dreamy table settings.

I like pumpkins and fun stuff like that, but that’s kind of fall too and not limited to Halloween. I hate and I mean hate the gory,…

Blue & White Ginger Jars
For as long as I can remember I’ve loved blue & white decor – namely ginger jars. Chinoiserie is really popular and if you don’t know what that is it’s decor pieces that imitate or evoke a Chinese motif vibe in western art, furniture, etc. Nice pieces are pretty expensive, so for now I can just admire them from afar. But, one day when I can afford expensive home decor and investment pieces I’d love to have a collection of blue & white ginger jars like the ones in the photo below! I took this photo when I was at the Williams-Sonoma flagship store in San Francisco over the summer.…
