Around the House for Fall

Happy Friday!

I wanted to pop in and share a few updates we’ve made around the house.

First, at long last, I chose a paper for the half bath/powder room and had it hung. If we’re connected on Instagram you know I’m often taping wallpaper samples to the wall to try them out, but I am so slow to make actual decisions.

I actually had another toile paper chosen for this bath but it was a high-end paper with a very large repeat and was only sold untrimmed. All of that added up to a lot of $$ so I went back to this paper that I’ve literally been mulling over for years.

I really love it. I’m going to choose a new mirror for over the sink (something dark to provide a bit of contrast) and some new artwork. Hopefully, that won’t take too long and I’ll share here when I do.

Another easy change were these layered rugs in our piano room. I pulled out a seagrass rug I had stored away and added this smaller wool rug on top. I love the warmth and pop of color they add to this room.

We’ve been without a rug in here for a while because our senior dog, Cash, was having some accidents in this room. Sadly, we had to say goodbye to Cash last month. Thank you for all your nice comments on Instagram about that…I know many of you have been through the same thing.

Finally, a very simple addition. Hydrangeas are beautiful when they’re fresh but they also dry beautifully. These are from our limelight hydrangea bush and I will leave them out all fall.

I hope you all are enjoying fall.
