A Fall Vignette

I’ve done very little fall decorating {ahem, none} so far but I did throw together a quick fall vignette in my dining room this weekend.  I grabbed some natural elements from the outdoors and mixed them with a few vintage touches.  We finally got some cooler fall weather and it inspired me to bring the outside in.  Now I need to dig out the pumpkins and really get fall happening around this place.

Last year I wrapped some candles with old white sweaters for a warm look but this year I had the kids gather a few leaves {if our leaves ever change color, I’ll replace these ones with red and yellow} and used strips of washi tape to wrap them around a few candles.

I used a couple of different types of leaves for mixed texture and two colors of washi tape to bring in a little color then propped a metal letter against them.

I leaned my vintage post office box door up against the chippy yellow birdhouse …

… and scattered last year’s yellow painted acorns in the base of the wooden tray.

So simple but it added a colorful touch of fall to our dining room.

What touches of fall have you added to your home decor?
