Yesterday I could smell fall in the air.

It made my heart smile and my head fill with fall decorating ideas.

Add a little joy to your decor and let the colors of fall decorating inspire you this season.

I love red and slate grey for fall...and here's why.

Red

Shopping List: 1.  Red Metal Stools  2.  Glass Dome Stand  3. Red Dishes 4.  Armless Upholstered Chair  5.  Skyline Red Vase Table Lamp  6.  Double Wall Sconce

Red is the color of the brilliant hues of changing leaves on the trees.

And the layers of color in a fall sunset.

And faded barns full of the harvest.

Add a little red to your decor with unique table lamps or patterned upholstered chairs or architectural simplicity of a pair of stools.

Slate grey is the color of the stones leading down the pathway.

And the simplicity of gray pumpkins growing on the vine.

And the vintage garden gates at the entrance to the fall cutting garden.

Add a little slate into your decor with velvet upholstery or stone planters or the texture of a branch mirror.

Slate

Shopping List: 1. Barrister Gray Velvet Club Chair  2.  Square Outdoor Planters  3.  Smoke Area Rug  4. Birch Horizons Round Wall Mirror  5.  Funnel Glass Table Lamp  6.  Chloe Gray Down Filled Pillow

Falling leaves and sights and sounds of the harvest and the changing colors of the trees are just around the corner.

Let the beauty and colors of fall inspire your decorating this season.
