00:00:00.120 Hello classic crew and welcome to today's video where we're going to be talking about all of my fall decor
00:00:09.240 So I asked you guys over on Twitter and Instagram if this was a video you would be interested in seeing
00:00:14.880 I have been hearing a lot that this is something that you'd like to see because I've been talking about my fall decor quite a bit
00:00:21.400 Obviously, I've got a background that's reflecting the change in seasons
00:00:25.600 But I wanted to know from you guys if that was something you really wanted to see and
00:00:28.760 And almost all of you said yes
00:00:30.760 So I thought it would be fun to share how I decorate my house as well as where I bought a lot of this stuff
00:00:35.960 Now I can't remember exactly where I got every single thing
00:00:39.000 But I do have an idea of where I got most of my stuff
00:00:41.960 So I will share with you today where I went shopping how I have made my fall decor even better this year
00:00:49.060 And how I hope to keep improving it over time. So let's get into it first off
00:00:54.200 Let's talk about the stuff that's just in the background of my videos here
00:00:57.680 So I have this cute little fox here. I absolutely love this guy. He is so cute
00:01:05.200 I love the little flower crown. It's just adorable. I believe I got this at home goods
00:01:10.080 I got quite a few things last year
00:01:12.240 So last year was actually my first time decorating for the seasons
00:01:16.480 I had never done that before my family didn't really do that growing up and I love the idea of it
00:01:21.460 I love the idea of your home sort of reflecting the change in seasons throughout the year and especially in fall and winter
00:01:28.020 It's incredibly cozy when you do put up some decor that reflects kind of the changing of
00:01:34.340 Colors and the leaves and all of that
00:01:36.500 So I was really excited to go to the store and pick up some stuff last year and then this year
00:01:41.700 I just bought a few extra things and so I started last year with this little fox absolutely loved it
00:01:47.300 Then in front of him. I have these little cute pumpkins. I got them in two separate packs
00:01:52.020 I wanted to get some pumpkin decor, but I really didn't want it to be that expensive and these are actually candles
00:01:57.620 So I think that's kind of what saved me is the fact that they are actually just candles it made them a lot more inexpensive now
00:02:04.980 I'm not ever planning on lighting them. I'm usually just going to be using them as
00:02:08.740 Decorations, so I just like that. They're very petite one of them is obviously much more gold and shimmery and kind of
00:02:16.500 Festive and the other one is just kind of looking exactly like a pumpkin which I love the kind of mixture of those two
00:02:22.500 So this year I decided to update my background to reflect the seasons and so I did put these in my studio this year
00:02:28.580 Last year
00:02:29.060 I had them around the house and I decided to replace them this year with some other pieces that I'm going to show you next up
00:02:35.460 Let's talk about these boxes that are in my background
00:02:37.940 I got these at Joann's this year and I love the idea of having boxes in the backgrounds of my videos normally
00:02:43.860 I have flowered ones now during fall
00:02:46.660 I have these beautiful kind of fall looking boxes and I really really like the way that they look they're very cozy
00:02:54.020 They hold things so they're useful and this one is underneath the kind of decor that I stacked on top of it
00:03:00.980 And I just really liked how they kind of had a mixture of patterns
00:03:04.900 This one is orange and the other one is kind of a burgundy color a maroon
00:03:08.420 And I I liked that a lot now on top of the box on the back
00:03:13.220 I did put a couple more pumpkins and then I got this really pretty flower display
00:03:19.060 Which I thought was very cute. It's like a flower pot and I liked the way that it looked again
00:03:23.540 It's not real, but it's something that I can pull out every year, which I do like for seasonal decor
00:03:28.420 Lastly, I have this candle this I got at
00:03:32.340 TJ maxx and
00:03:34.500 I really like smell it's very sweet
00:03:36.420 But it also has a little bit of a musk scent to it and I loved the color of it
00:03:41.380 So I decided to put it in my background
00:03:43.140 I thought that that was very kind of festive and interesting looking in the back there
00:03:47.380 I love fall candles
00:03:48.900 I absolutely love the way that they smell
00:03:51.140 I've been lighting them quite a bit this season and it has been making me super happy
00:03:56.500 So speaking of candles, I thought I would share with you guys a few of my favorites my first one
00:04:01.140 I got from just the grocery store
00:04:02.820 It's by a company called candle light and the candle is called pumpkin noir and it has notes of pumpkin cardamom and oud wood
00:04:09.460 I hope I pronounced that right
00:04:12.260 It smells so good. It smells like
00:04:15.300 a fall man
00:04:18.260 Because it's got that pumpkin scent, but it definitely has kind of that like woodsy man smell
00:04:24.020 Oh, this is a really really nice one. I've been burning this in our kitchen and i've absolutely loved it
00:04:30.420 Definitely appropriate for the season, but it also has just a unique scent not just that kind of
00:04:37.380 Very cinnamony or very pumpkin-y scent. It's got it's got its own thing and I really liked it
00:04:42.340 Now this one I got at target. This is the pumpkin spice donut. I burned this
00:04:47.220 All in like three days. I just let it burn all day and just got a little bit left
00:04:52.980 This one smells like a pumpkin spice donut. It smells like fall. I'm so I love this one. Oh, it smells so good
00:04:59.300 I think I got this for five dollars six dollars at target
00:05:01.780 So this might be a really good option for you if you're looking for something inexpensive and that smells delicious
00:05:06.980 And my other favorite from this season
00:05:09.460 I actually got at kohl's as you guys know since I moved to nebraska kohl's
00:05:13.380 I never had ever shopped at and now i'm just like kohl's is such an amazing place
00:05:17.780 Everything's on sale all the time and this is their scent works
00:05:22.340 Cashmere pumpkin first of all, I absolutely love the way this looks how pretty is this candle?
00:05:27.620 I love it so much. It's decor in and of itself and it smells amazing. It's sweet
00:05:34.660 But it also is not too sweet. I does this one have notes. Let's see white pumpkin ginger creamy woods and cardamom
00:05:42.340 Cardamom again and pumpkin. Oh my gosh. This one smells
00:05:46.340 Delicious. I just love fall candles. They are so good. They get you in the mood for the season
00:05:52.180 They make you feel homey
00:05:53.940 So these are some really really good ones and I highly recommend if you want to have fall decor
00:06:00.340 You should definitely have some scented candles just out and about
00:06:04.900 I also love the idea of having those small little pumpkins like I mentioned and getting whatever decor really speaks to you
00:06:11.460 If you're somebody who likes the fall leaves kind of wreaths and things definitely do that
00:06:16.420 And if you're somebody who's not into that at all, but likes just having a lot of candles burning do that
00:06:21.300 Do what works for you when it comes to kind of seasonal decor now as far as my front door
00:06:25.940 I have a wreath that I think is super cute
00:06:28.100 It has a bunch of little pumpkins and leaves and I just love the way that it looks it's so fall
00:06:35.380 Oriented and I think that if you're gonna splurge on something it's okay to splurge on your wreath because
00:06:41.780 You are going to see it every single day every single time you walk through your front door
00:06:45.300 So if you're gonna be seeing it all the time of course stuff in your home
00:06:48.580 You're gonna see but you may not notice it as much
00:06:50.340 But your wreath you're gonna see every single day when you come home and when you leave the house
00:06:54.020 And so finding something that not only is welcoming to you
00:06:56.900 But is welcoming to your guests and your neighbors
00:06:59.940 Will just make your whole house feel really comfy and cozy. I love ours
00:07:05.140 I think we got ours at home goods and it wasn't too pricey. I think it was around 20 dollars
00:07:09.060 But this year I actually only spent 20 dollars on the fall decor that I bought
00:07:14.180 I said I'm gonna only have a 20 dollar limit and I am so glad I gave myself that limit
00:07:18.660 Because I ended up shopping at the dollar store and it was amazing
00:07:22.900 I found so much good stuff
00:07:25.460 So the other couple of things I have on our front patio is this little pumpkin that says welcome friends
00:07:31.060 I loved that I thought it was really cute and of course, it's just a plastic pumpkin
00:07:35.860 So it's not going to rot or anything
00:07:38.180 And then I also have this little kind of basket filled with pumpkins, which I thought was really cute
00:07:43.060 Now in the future when we have a little table or something outside
00:07:47.300 I think it'll be even better because I would put the welcome friends pumpkin on the floor
00:07:51.380 And then I would put the little kind of basket on a table so that bugs can't get to it as easily
00:07:57.140 But for now, I don't have that so I just put it out on the ground and it works just as well
00:08:02.100 Next up. Let's talk about all of my dollar store finds
00:08:05.700 The dollar store has such good fall decor and it's so affordable. Obviously, it's a dollar
00:08:11.460 So you can get a ton of stuff and you don't have to spend that much money, which is great
00:08:15.860 So let's talk about these little ceramic pumpkins
00:08:19.940 These are such good quality and each one was a dollar
00:08:24.660 I just love the way that they look out and about around our house
00:08:28.100 The paint job on it is so pretty
00:08:30.260 I love the kind of mixture of these two, but they had a few other options
00:08:34.340 And it's just so cute so inexpensive and such high quality
00:08:39.860 I cannot understand how these are only a dollar
00:08:43.300 Check out your local dollar store because not everything there looks cheap things there look good
00:08:48.340 They look nice if you find the right stuff
00:08:50.420 And this is definitely one of those things I would recommend to anybody no matter what your budget next up
00:08:54.980 I wanted to get a little sign so I got this little happy harvest car
00:08:58.740 I thought this was so cute and it has just a little bit of glitter in the front
00:09:02.900 So it's not actually going to kind of get everywhere which I appreciate
00:09:06.180 Jacob really appreciates he hates when glitter is everywhere fair enough
00:09:10.180 And then there's this cute little kind of leaf up here
00:09:13.380 And everything kind of just looks really cute and well made
00:09:16.900 And I just kind of lean this up against our wall and underneath our mirror
00:09:21.380 And I just think it looks really cute there
00:09:23.220 And I like that it's a little happy harvest sign
00:09:25.540 I thought that was so cute
00:09:26.580 Next up I got a couple things that I don't know if they count as decor
00:09:29.780 But I'm going to include them here
00:09:31.380 They kind of get you in the fall spirit
00:09:32.980 And this is something I would recommend to you if you wanted to get yourself in the fall spirit
00:09:37.620 Is getting little mugs and cups that are a little bit more seasonal
00:09:41.620 And are not a huge splurge so that when you pack them away when fall is over you don't feel bad about it
00:09:47.060 But when you're drinking from it it does make you feel just nice and warm and cozy
00:09:51.300 Or in this case you can have an iced coffee
00:09:54.580 So I got this little fall cup again
00:09:57.380 This was a dollar from the dollar store
00:09:59.340 So cute i've been having my iced coffee because it's still hot outside here even though it is fall
00:10:05.020 And i've been really enjoying it again. It was only a dollar and I think it's so adorable
00:10:10.140 And then I also got this pick of the patch cup
00:10:13.660 Which I loved because it's a travel mug and it is so adorable really cute
00:10:18.300 And a dollar look at the quality on this. Can you believe that? I I just think that's amazing
00:10:23.740 Next up. I want to talk about this ribbon
00:10:26.300 So they had just some really pretty rolls of ribbon there
00:10:29.980 And I didn't know exactly what I wanted to do with this
00:10:32.540 But I thought it would be good to have and so what I did was I actually kind of put it out
00:10:37.500 Underneath a candle and a little pumpkin and I kind of used it as almost like tissue paper or something
00:10:43.580 Like I crumpled it up and used it as something that would go underneath a candle and a little pumpkin and I just love
00:10:49.480 This a dollar again a dollar and it's really pretty again
00:10:54.360 You can really repurpose things that are inexpensive for fall decor and figure out how you want to use them
00:10:59.480 You might find an alternative use than what it's actually used for right because this is a ribbon
00:11:03.240 But I didn't use it as a ribbon
00:11:05.080 Just being smart about how you want to incorporate fall decor into your home will make your home feel even more cozy
00:11:11.400 During the change of seasons and last but not least what I got at dollar store was this little fall bouquet
00:11:18.440 This is actually I think three pieces
00:11:20.600 I thought it was really cute to kind of mix the leaves here as well as these little berries
00:11:26.200 And some actual flowers and I just really liked the way this looked I put it into this
00:11:31.440 I'm not sure this is the best vase for it
00:11:33.120 But it's the only opaque vase that I have and I didn't want to put in a glass vase because obviously the stems look really fake
00:11:38.320 So this was an okay option not ideal
00:11:41.480 But I actually don't mind it because it has like that really intense blue orange contrast
00:11:46.360 They're opposites on the color wheel so I liked the idea of that
00:11:49.160 But this is just I thought a really pretty bouquet to have around the house
00:11:53.100 And I've really been enjoying walking by it
00:11:55.420 So moving on from the dollar store
00:11:57.180 I did buy one more mug and that was this happy fall y'all mug
00:12:01.080 From target
00:12:02.440 I just love the way it looked
00:12:04.100 I loved the shape of it and it just made me feel so cozy when I looked at it
00:12:08.640 So I couldn't wait to drink out of it
00:12:10.160 Now that I have I'm so happy I have it
00:12:12.520 So I have three fall themed mugs two of which were a dollar and one which was five dollars
00:12:17.220 So they're just really nice little things to have and they do make you feel quite cozy
00:12:22.880 I'll link what I can down below or I'll link similar items
00:12:26.880 So for those of you who do want to get your house ready for fall you can have some inspo
00:12:31.520 Next up I wanted to talk about this blanket that I definitely got at home goods
00:12:35.120 It is so cozy it is so comfy and it is the most cute thing ever
00:12:40.020 Why is this moose wearing a coat? Why does he need boots?
00:12:43.640 Because it's fall
00:12:44.780 It's so cute
00:12:46.120 Why does this little guy need an umbrella?
00:12:50.040 Because it's raining
00:12:51.160 This squirrel needs an umbrella
00:12:53.000 It's so cute
00:12:54.280 I love this blanket so much
00:12:56.540 It's so fall
00:12:57.980 It's so cozy
00:12:59.340 And it's just adorable
00:13:01.000 And I love having it on our couch displayed for people to see
00:13:04.520 Because it is just really really cute
00:13:07.300 And I love that it kind of makes the little animals all ready for fall too
00:13:12.200 And of course we all need a blanket during fall
00:13:15.660 It gets chilly and cold and we all want to get comfy and cozy
00:13:18.380 So finding a fall themed blanket totally makes sense if you want to do that for your home decor
00:13:23.740 Last but not least let's talk about pillows
00:13:26.840 So I got four pillows last year
00:13:30.020 And I love them
00:13:31.200 I think they're really really great for the furniture that we have
00:13:34.520 And they're just easy to put away at the end of the season
00:13:37.320 And then bring back out
00:13:38.700 And I don't feel like I need to get any more for the moment
00:13:41.480 So I have this little guy right here
00:13:44.340 It's really kind of different for fall
00:13:47.040 But that's kind of why I like it
00:13:48.460 It goes with our couch really well
00:13:50.000 Because our couch is an interesting shade of green
00:13:52.200 And this has all of these beads on it
00:13:54.740 It almost has a Cinderella vibe
00:13:56.380 Because her carriage was made out of a pumpkin
00:13:58.240 And this sort of feels like that
00:13:59.740 My only issue with this pillow unfortunately
00:14:01.940 Is that there are certain areas that are kind of starting to unravel
00:14:04.440 So I'm probably going to have to go in and fix that myself
00:14:06.740 But it is really pretty and very kind of unique for the season
00:14:10.940 My other small pillow that I have is this one
00:14:13.520 Which says gather together
00:14:14.680 I like that it has again that beading here and here
00:14:18.240 It's very fall
00:14:19.700 I really like that
00:14:20.880 And it's just a lot of fun
00:14:22.500 And it's very cute
00:14:23.420 And it goes with our couch
00:14:24.540 Next up we have this pillow
00:14:26.540 Which says give thanks
00:14:27.600 I love this pillow
00:14:28.660 It's super comfy and cozy and squishy
00:14:30.980 Which I love
00:14:31.860 And it also of course
00:14:33.280 Is very Thanksgiving-y
00:14:35.480 And I love that
00:14:36.300 Thanksgiving is my favorite part of fall
00:14:37.840 And so this is just a great pillow for that
00:14:40.160 I just love this pillow
00:14:41.620 It's really comfy
00:14:42.300 And yeah it's really cute
00:14:44.280 And last but not least
00:14:46.380 Is this family pillow
00:14:47.800 Which I really like too
00:14:49.300 Because it has the gold
00:14:50.200 All of the pillows kind of go together
00:14:51.780 Which is nice
00:14:52.480 And it has these very pretty leaves on here
00:14:55.940 Plus it goes with our couch really well
00:14:58.280 So I also like the shape of this one
00:15:00.180 Because it is slightly more unique
00:15:02.400 It's got the very wide pillow inside
00:15:05.260 And last but not least
00:15:06.340 I want to talk about the blanket
00:15:07.160 That we put on the foot of our bed
00:15:08.400 It's got a very fall look to it
00:15:09.980 And I really like that addition to our bedroom
00:15:12.100 Because it does make it feel quite cozy
00:15:14.400 And so that's a recommendation that I have as well
00:15:16.560 Is to get maybe just an inexpensive blanket
00:15:19.160 To put on the foot of your bed
00:15:20.260 If you want to add just a little bit
00:15:23.140 Of that fall feeling to your bedroom
00:15:25.560 And that's it for my fall decor
