It’s Autumn In August

Hi there! Yes, you read the title correct, it sure is Autumn in August over at…The Tuscan Home.
Every year, right before the kids go back to school, I get busy decorating for Fall. Join me, and I will share what I have completed around the house.
I have lots of metal and Iron wall decor, and all through the year, I simply change out the wreaths with the seasons.
I have a black hutch in the kitchen dining area. I love adding fall colors, because it looks cozy against the black backdrop.
On the top of my hutch I added a large basket and filled it with pumpkins and gourds. I added two fall leaf garlands and two berry garlands to add dimension.
Here is another example of adding a wreath to metal wall decor. In this photo I hung my wreath with wire ribbon.
In the family room, on a sofa table I added a few leaf plates.
Here is the family room mantle. I added a lit fall leaf garland and some berry garlands, too! I placed twig pumpkins in amongst the garland. 
I adore the the earthy, warm, fall colors throughout the house.  
I always have an Autumn Tree, so this year my theme is a Pumpkin Tree.
I used a large twig pumpkin as my tree topper, ha! I added tons of fall leaves, twig branches, and beige deco mesh and wired ribbon. 
Happy Harvest, y’all! 😉
In the living room I added two wooden pumpkins in amongst some greenery. 
In the kitchen, I filled up a huge glass canister with tons of multi-colored beans that you can buy at the grocery store. I placed some greenery in the beans and then layered it with some tall fall floral picks.  I took out my pumpkin wax warmer, and placed some “pumpkin spice” wax melts inside, can you smell the pumpkin now??? 😉
In the dining room, I hung a wreath in the window and placed an Autumn floral arrangement beneath it.
Here is the kitchen dining area with the hutch decorated for Fall.
In the office I sat a pumpkin on top of the greenery.
I love this family platter I found at Walmart two years ago.  I placed some sunflower floral picks just under the platter.
Last week, I found these two pretty cloches at Tuesday Morning and placed some Fall Potpourri inside the cloches, to add a splash of color.
In the dining room, I layered with pumpkins, leaves, gourds, and acorns…right around my candle centerpiece.
In this glass vase, I placed fall apples and acorns in around my candle.
 In this photo, I added a fall twig pumpkin that has berries, a small pumpkin, and a big leaf on it.
Here is the living room. I will share better pictures soon. It was hard to get a good shot with my iPhone.

I filled a large glass vase with rustic pumpkins and placed them around my candle.

Here is a shot of our dining room.

I’m in love with the super tall windows in the living room, it lets so much light in. 🙂
I decorated my mirror by hanging the letter R (for our last name) and added a fall berry garland at the top. I also decorated the home office, too! 
Well, although it’s still summer, and I’m loving every second of it, I am also enjoying my warm, cozy, and earthy Autumn decor, during summer, ha! I know, I’m crazy-e!
Thanks for visiting! xo, ~Liz

  7. Thank you Liz for sharing your beautiful home! I look forward to seeing more fall inspiration and can't wait for your wonderful Christmas ideas!Kathryn

  10. I'm ABSOLUTELY LOVING your new home!! It's been so fun to follow from the beginning and see how you've made each house a home for your family. i have my Fall decor up too (even though it's 106 outside today) Ha! I guess we can be crazy together! Beautiful as always. xoxo

  11. Wow! Your home is gorgeous! I really love your style. This is my first time visiting your blog. I too have started decorating Autumn in August! My family thinks I'm crazy, but I'm so over summer in Fl.! Thanks, Liz for all the Autumn inspiration!

  14. Our home is beginning to look like fall inside and outside…in sunny Southern California! Our mail carrier must think that we are unaware that it is still summer…ha!

  15. I am loving the fall inspiration you always share with us. Once again, you add your magic touch to everything and make your home look so welcoming and beautiful. The little pumpkin spice sign is really cute and I like the new cloches too!

  19. As usual your home and decorations look awesome! You always get me in the mood to get my stuff out (whatever season) so I'm off to dig into some boxes and containers! lolThanks for sharingJeannette

  21. I cannot tell you how much I've been looking forward to your return after your move. Your home is so beautiful, Liz. I don't think you are crazy at all for doing your Autumn decorating. I want to do mine (probably a more simplified version than I normally do) the first part of September. I have to work it around "chemo good days," and will need some help from The Man, but I truly can't wait. I look forward to see much more of your home as you get settled.

  23. Lovely as always! Gorgeous cloches. Will have to see if my TM is sporting any of those. I love your fall tree.It has been so hot here I can't even wrap my mind around the cool days of fall yet. They will come I pray. ;)So glad you're back!

  24. Lizzie, I am back. I was reading some of your past posts, and saw that you have lost your dear Daddy. I am so very sorry. I too have lost mine, and I miss him every. single. day! You and your family will be in my prayers. And another thing:WHAT? You are moving!!!! AGAIN??????Do tell!xo Kris

  26. I love all your Fall decor. I can't wait to see more of your new home. I love all your gorgeous moldings that your home has. I will have to wait until October to decorate for Fall this year as we are selling our home and will be moving to our new home at the end of September (if all goes well). Glad that you are back!!Jody @Southern Seazons

  28. I always love coming to visit your beautiful home. You have the touch my friend. You have it so well spread out that it doesn't look like everything is all in on place. Your home always evokes warmth and charm. I have seen so many larger homes that just seem cold and lack personality but definitely not yours. Since I have been following you all of your homes have always looked stunning. Thanks for all the inspiration you give me. xoxo

  30. Just beautiful!!! I would love to have you post on my new blog hop—the Weekend Blog Hop at My Flagstaff Home (www.myflagstaffhome.com). It begins on Thursday evenings and lasts through the weekend, if you're interested.Jennifer

  32. Hi, Liz, I am so glad you are back!! I love your new home and decor!! A long time ago, you wrote a blog on making tamales. Would you ever have time to put that up again? I think you gave really good instructions, and I would love to try to make them. Thanks!!

  33. Gorgeous, Liz! You're always so "in your element" this time of year. Love all of the Fall goodies you've added to your beautiful new home! I know your guests will want to linger for hours. I look forward to seeing more. 🙂

  34. I am so glad you are back and sharing your decorations. You have been an inspiration in my own home. I love your style and the last few years I have brought some of your beautiful ideas into my own home. 🙂 Looking forward to see lots more!! Especially Christmas!!

  40. Hi Liz! I was happy to see an icon showing you had posted a Christmas post but when I click I get December 8th date but your Autumn post? Not sure if it is just me or there is a problem with Blogger but I thought I would mention it! I love your blog and style so I keep clicking hoping the problem clears!!lol Have a fun day – jeannette

  47. Omgoodness! Your new home is stunning. Hope you'll be back soon with more pics of your home and Christmas ideas! Love it!
