Fall at Kirklands

Happy First Day of Fall! 

Alright, so maybe it's not the official first day of Fall... but September 1st has become the unofficial first day and I am here for it! I'm even guilty of putting out some of my pumpkins two days ago. I was going to wait until Labor Day weekend but I let my excitement get the best of me. 

Naturally, I've been window shopping on every home decor store website I know of looking for what my next purchase is going to be. I do have some fun stuff coming this week that I can't wait to share. But in the meantime I'm sharing some things I found at one of my favorite stores - Kirklands! Let me know on my Instagram post if you bought anything!

Faux Olive Tree

Isn't this gorgeous!? I used to think faux trees were so 80's and 90's because my mom always had them in our house growing up. But they have clearly made a comeback and in a good way! I'm loving olive trees and maybe a part of that has to do with not just the fact that they are beautiful, but I grew up near olive tree orchards in Northern California, so they have a sentimental value for me as well. 

I finally found one I thought was pretty but after reading the reviews, I was sold! I can't believe the quality and how beautiful it is in person. I've seen a lot of faux trees that don't come with pots so you have to pay extra to find one. But this one came with a beautiful white ceramic pot and it's heavy duty. 

I'm still trying to find the right spot in my house for it but for now it looks amazing in my master bedroom. Time to move furniture around (my favorite thing to do) and see what I can do! If you're looking for a tree go buy this one! I highly recommend! Link to purchase below the picture.

 Fall is in the air... 

Haha don't hate me if you're a lover of Summer. Me? I could skip it all together and live Fall all year long. I've started seeing more Fall inspired posts on Instagram and even Pinterest. When that happens this time of year I get so excited because it means we're that much closer to my favorite time of year.  

One thing that gets me inspired for Fall are candles. They just set a mood that feels so relaxing and cozy. I love collecting them but bonus points if they are pretty. I stumbled across an Instagram ad for Everlasting Candle a while back and instantly fell in love! I ended up purchasing one and I absolutely love it! It's unique and not your average candle. It is odorless but the best part is it's smokeless too!

When I first created this blog and instagram account, I did so out of boredom. When I was a teenager I was really into creating websites about things I loved... I can't believe I'm admitting this but I created a website once about my love for *NSYNC - I know! 

I've worked on this blog for years but I keep deleting posts and content over fear of judgment. I've always felt my stuff wasn't good enough or wonder why am I posting pictures of my home, it's not that nice! 

I've come to realize that decorating my home has become my passion and it's what I enjoy doing with my free time. It may not be to the standards of others who have large, modern looking, beautiful homes with white kitchen cabinets and high ceilings... but it's my home and I work hard to make it look beautiful to my standards and have fun in the process. 

I just wanted to say thank you to all my friends, family and even some strangers who have loved all my photos and made comments asking where to find certain items. It literally warms my heart to hear people care and enjoy what I'm doing here. Love you all!
