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
00:00:30.760
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
00:01:12.240
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
00:01:36.500
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
00:02:29.060
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
00:02:46.660
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
00:03:36.420
But it also has a little bit of a musk scent to it and I loved the color of it
00:03:43.140
I thought that that was very kind of festive and interesting looking in the back there
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
00:04:02.820
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
00:04:18.260
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
00:05:09.460
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
00:05:53.940
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
00:06:28.100
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
00:07:25.460
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
00:07:38.180
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
00:08:30.260
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
00:08:50.420
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
00:09:23.220
And I like that it's a little happy harvest sign
00:09:26.580
Next up I got a couple things that I don't know if they count as decor
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
00:09:59.340
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
00:10:13.660
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
00:10:26.300
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
00:11:05.080
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
00:11:20.600
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
00:11:33.120
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
00:11:41.480
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
00:11:57.180
I did buy one more mug and that was this happy fall y'all mug
00:12:04.100
I loved the shape of it and it just made me feel so cozy when I looked at it
00:12:12.520
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?
00:13:01.000
And I love having it on our couch displayed for people to see
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
00:13:31.200
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
00:13:38.700
And I don't feel like I need to get any more for the moment
00:13:50.000
Because our couch is an interesting shade of green
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
00:14:14.680
I like that it has again that beading here and here
00:15:14.400
And so that's a recommendation that I have as well
00:15:40.680
