Fall Decor With A Sprinkling of Halloween

By Tamera Beardsley @tamerabeardsley

I love seasonal decorating especially in the fallwhen it feels like simple changes and additions can have such big impact inwelcoming the season.

Instead of redoing my entire flower beds each seasonI try to keep things neutralandthen add in my seasonal colorwith luxurious fully planted color bowls.
This beauty is on my front terracewhich is a perfect place for morning coffee or a sunset cocktail.



For our raised planter in the center of our front yardI added a dramatic row of fall color.

I like to have our Halloween decor to work into our landscapeso a couple of huge inhabited spider webs work perfectly.We are also using ghost lights at night.I am waiting for my final additiona ghost to arrive this afternoon.


In the courtyard I added a couple of shrunken heads to the exterior window vignette.

Here is the first of many Halloween blackbirds I used.

One of my favorite things I love about our houseis the inside out views.In my designs I always embrace this and want visual continuity throughoutthe rooms inside to out.Here you can see just how well the exterior vignette plays inside as well!

Inside fall pillows and woven textiles have once again emerged.


With the changing morning lightmorning candles with coffee have made their return.

As have pumpkins filling my mantel urnsI just love how sculptural they look!
Another bonus to decorating with fall pumpkinsnot storing required after the season.Little hand carved woodland animals have a new home.

Above the mantel a furry spider has taken up residence.
Inside and outI primarily used black characters to sprinkle in  for my Halloween decor.I was going with a nod to the holidaywhile keeping my interior stillbeautiful and calm.

I am very happy with my dining centerpiece this fall!It came about in a somewhat organic wayas so many of my favorites do!

I started once again with my favorite piece of drift wood atop my fall woven textile.I pulled out my terracotta vesselsand added a beautiful branch to the largest.

As I started adding in some Halloweenmy flock of black birds were the perfect holiday addition!


I have some larger black birds sprinkled throughout the living room.

Dropped pillows and fur throws into the media roomas well a a sweet boo sign.

The backyard also got dressed in beautiful fall nods.A fall tablecloth, floral arrangements and lanterns adorn the outdoor living room table.




I added in a few pots of a fall color to out outside farmer's table.

All the outside seating has accent pillows and blanketsjust waiting for a chill in the air.

i made a wee bit of a pumpkin patchfor a focal point in the fence line planters.
