Hailey's House: It's Fall Y'all

I cannot even describe how excited I am that Fall is here!!! The weather is cooler, the leaves are changing (ok, mostly dying), and pumpkins and mums are everywhere! 

I really like the whole "Hailey's House" concept so I've decided to incorporate it into my blog from time to time!  One of my favorite things from blogging is coming across ideas about home decor, crafts, and ways to simplify your home and family.  

Here's a look at some of my favorite ideas for Fall and how I've incorporated them into our home.

Found these beautiful chairs recently at Homegoods. 

Love how they add an extra sitting area in our living room!

 

Also found these nifty leaf placemats at Homegoods (can you ever go in there and not find something?!) BUT I totally stole the idea to use them in a different way from the fabulous Mrs. All My Love.

  Here's a look at my kitchen- almost complete! LOVE my curtains, the color, the print, and of course the incredible price I paid for the fabric!

Saw a basket similar to this one last season from Pottery Barn and loved it.  I was thrilled when I found this one at Hobby Lobby this year for a whopping total of $4.50.  I did the monogramming myself.  So glad I didn't order that one last year cause I'm pretty sure it would have cost me a little more :)

My wreath is a combination of about 3 different ideas for a Fall wreath.   Mine consists of about 90 feet of ribbon and a lot of time.  It was one of those things that I dove into, then realized it wasn't turning out how I originally imagined, but it works.  I also made the "The Johnstons" piece.  I found a super easy tutorial on how to print on burlap.  I of course can't find the link to share with you, but will be glad to give you the "how to" if you want.

 

And I'm absolutely LOVING that I can display all our maternity pics from Last Fall.  The "Kate" pumpkin is my favorite and I look forward to it making it's appearance in our home for many Falls to come!  Thank you Kristine Neeley for this creative idea and of course the gorgeous pics!

And Last but not least- I may have a small obsession with The Nester.  I have gone back and read almost everyone of her posts.  She is thrifty, creative, wise, and I'm pretty sure is an incredible friend.  I totally want to have coffee with her.  She inspired the wall over my couch and my white slipcovers. I know I have an almost 9 month old- So what?!? I can wash them when needed :) 

 oh yeah, and how gorgeous is this fabric?!? I have yet to make the two pillows for my couch with it, but it's on my list! It's perfect for Fall.  It will have cost me a total of $7.00 (I found the Fabric in a clearance bin and I'm using pillow inserts I already have!) Wahoo. Hopefully they will be on my couch soon!

HAPPY FALL Y'ALL!!!
