The school year is in full swing and last night we had our first high school football game of the season—such a fun sign that autumn is on its way. I’m not fully ready to decorate for fall yet, but I’m starting to feel inspired by the cooler evenings and the seasonal energy. Have you begun pulling out any fall pieces or planning small changes around the house?
Now that the kids are back in school, I finally finished a small project I’d been meaning to tackle: I transformed my daughters’ old changing table into a jewelry station for my pre-teen. It’s practical, sentimental, and surprisingly pretty—I’m excited to share the before-and-after photos and the simple steps I used later this week.
This week on Home Style Saturday #465, I’ve rounded up fresh inspiration for your home: practical decorating tips, seasonal projects, and a little travel inspiration to stir your imagination. Dive in and enjoy these ideas to refresh your space as the season shifts.
