Fall Porch Planter Ideas

My fall porch planters needed a seasonal refreshing now that fall is in the air! As the season changes, I’m trimming away the spent hydrangea blooms and adding a burst of color with mums in full bloom and some that are still budding to spread out the vibrant show. To finish the look, I’m tucking in a few white and orange pumpkins, giving the planters that cozy autumn feel.

Rustic Fall Window Decor

On my last trip to the Dallas market, this rustic fall window decor in the RAZ showroom caught my eye immediately. Since fall is my favorite time to decorate, I couldn’t resist admiring the details. I love going to the Dallas market with Carrie (Trendy Tree) and browsing the beautiful décor and products. Every trip leaves me full of new ideas and inspiration.

Rooster in the Kitchen: A Tale of Good Luck and Lost Memories

In folklore, a rooster in the kitchen is seen as a symbol of good luck, protection, and prosperity. Many believe that roosters help keep away negative energy, especially in the kitchen, which is the heart of the home. The rooster’s crow at dawn represents a fresh start and new opportunities. Whether it’s an old tale or a cultural tradition, roosters remain a popular and meaningful symbol in home décor.

I always love traveling to the Dallas market to explore the latest trends, and this year’s RAZ Imports “Christmas in the Garden” collection didn’t disappoint!

This collection perfectly blends the beauty of an outdoor garden with a cozy holiday charm. It’s a stunning way to bring the warmth of nature indoors, creating a holiday atmosphere that’s both fresh and timeless. Let’s explore some of my favorite pieces!
