Hey guys! I finally got my dining room decorated for Fall.
When I posted Farmhouse Friday last week I talked about how I need to give myself extra time to decorate to keep it fun and get the creative juices flowing instead of rushing to get things finished.
I decided to go with more neutral tones in the dining room for Fall this year than I did in my kitchen. Most of our home is neutral tones, but I like to still mix things up color wise and try different color palettes in each room when I’m decorating for the seasons.
I love decorating my dining room hutch for the seasons, but I think Fall is my favorite.
I kept it simple this year by just adding a wreath and some pumpkins.
I just got this big dough bowl a couple of weeks ago and I was excited to use it as my table centerpiece.
This was the first time I decorating a dough bowl of this size so it took a lot of messing with it before I got it to where I was happy with it.
All the pumpkins and gourds are real and I didn’t paint or alter them in any way. One good thing about living in the central valley of California is that our climate allows us to grow almost anything, including a wide variety of pumpkins and gourds.
All the foliage is faux – it’s only the pumpkins that are real. I plan on incorporating real foliage in my decor as much as possible for now on, but I bought way to much faux foliage for Fall this year so I wanted to at least use it once.
I hope you enjoyed Fall in my dining room! 🙂 If you have any questions or comments, please feel free to leave them in the comments section below!
Absolutely love your dough bowl centerpiece and the faux foliage! Also love the drug store sign!
Thank you so much Linda! 🙂
This is so pretty! I love all the pumpkins and gourds you chose. Beautiful dough bowl display! Come over and share at TFT for a chance to be featured next week 🙂
your decorating process is like mine. I like to take a bit of time and work and rework things. love the doughbowl centerpiece; the pumpkins and gourds are wonderful with the subtle colors and textures.
I love how you decorated your dough bowl, Michelle, its so pretty! Wow, wish we could get real pumpkins and gourds like that here where I live. Your dining room looks beautiful.
It’s perfect! Everything is beautiful. Just like the farmhouse dining room I dream of having one day. I’m on the search for a dough bowl, right now I’m settling for a wooden cake plate with crystal dome, filled like you have with real pumpkins and gourds but faux greenery, because I also bought too much, lol. Thank you for sharing!
I absolutely love your dining room. Working on creating this look for myself. Great job !!
