Fall Home Tour 2014
This Post May Contain Affiliate Links. Please Read Our Disclosure PolicyWelcome back to my home, everyone! I’m so excited to invite you in for a fall look around. As some of you may remember, this past summer I did my first home tour on the blog. You were all so wonderfully kind and left the sweetest comments, so I’m thrilled to do this again.
This time I’m participating in the Finding Fall Home Tour. Laura of Finding Home gathered up 20 talented bloggers to be a part of this particular tour, and I’m so honored to be one of them. (Thank you so much, Laura, for putting this together.)
Also, a special shout out to all of the folks coming over from White Buffalo Styling Company. Isn’t Lindsay’s home stunning? I’m in love with her kitchen!
As I did in summer, I’m going to really let the pictures do the talking on this tour. I added a few links below some of the images to help answer some often-asked questions. Also, if you’re looking for paint colors, they are all listed here. I even picked up a new camera lens and tried to get some different angles for this tour. I hope you enjoy seeing my space from the various perspectives.
All right, on with the tour!
In the kitchen, I added a few touches of fall here and there. You’ll notice that I got rid of the TV that hung on the wall. I rarely used the TV, and it didn’t do much for the space. Some new art has taken its place. I’m also still loving the pegboard I recently installed.
Pops of autumn red made their way into the dining room. Some leaves, my painted gourds, and wine (of course) create a carefree, but styled centerpiece. My goal was to keep things simple, yet colorful with natural elements.
In the office, I did a bunch of organizing. My workstation had become a bit of a catchall. It’s so nice to have it functioning again. And, as you saw earlier this week, my shelves were put in color order. If you want to recreate the look, here are a few tips that I followed.
I carried the fall branches into the living room. They add such a great burst of color on my mantel. While I still need to tweak the wall decor in the space, I’m pleased with how my gallery wall turned out.
Heading upstairs (I promised I’d show you the upstairs on my next house tour.), you can see that my master bedroom is still a work in progress. (I’ll try to get it done for the Holiday Home Tour.) I did put up these DIY picture ledges in my hallway. It was super fun decorating them for the season.
I’m overjoyed that I finally have a functioning guest room. A few more details (including something for the walls) and this space will be complete!
And that my friends wraps up another IBC home tour. I sincerely hope you enjoyed your time and possibly picked up a few colorful ideas for your own place.
Now, as I mentioned above, this Fall Home tour consists of 20 amazing bloggers. To start at the beginning,of the tour, head on over to Finding Home. If you’re already on the tour, next up are Heather and Vanessa from At The Picket Fence.
My friends at BHG are also joining the party. You can subscriber to their 100 Day of Holiday newsletter here for endless holiday inspiration. Thank you again for visiting. Stop back anytime! Happy Fall!

Like Mandi, I too am lusting after that calendar! Unfortunately, no matter how much I enlarge the photo I can’t see the manufacturer’s fine print. Thanks for the fabulous tour!
It’s the Stendig Calendar: http://www.stendigcalendar.com/Stendig_Calendar/Welcome.html They sell out quickly, so I recommend ordering ASAP if you want one. 🙂

So much awesomeness in this post I can’t even tell you my favorite!!!! HELLO Rockstar!!! 😉 I want to come stay over and hang out in this place but only if you don’t crop me out of any pics 😉 hehe
I am so in love! I know you’re getting a million questions, but do you mind telling me where you found that geometric rug?? It’s amazing and I’m looking for a fun rug for my girls’ room!
GORGEOUS home!! Can you tell me more about the triangle pattern rug in your living room?? I’m coveting it 🙂
Thanks so much Beth! Yes, that rug was from CB2.com

Do I have to pick a favorite? No? Good, because I really can’t. What I love about your house is it just says “happy” without screaming it. Know what I mean? Sometimes it can be hard to do a lot of color without it looking cartoonish or trite. I love how you balance color with chic. Hats off to you!
Your home is charming and adorable. Loved your Fall touches. 🙂
Hi Michael,
Your photographs are stunners, not only for their clarity also from how you choose angles and placement. I think you are a food stylist. I notice two broadleaf (maybe one and you moved it for the photo) plants. What plant is this? Very handsome. Just keep up with what you are doing because it always leads you to another interesting place or project.
-Sandy
Thank you so much Sandy!
The plant is a fiddle leaf fig. And I love them, so I have three! Haha. 🙂

I must be hiding under a rock. I can’t believe I’ve never been here before. Hi, Michael! I’m Julie from redheadcandecorate.com. I just found you through Vanessa’s (ATPF) home tour post. You are so very talented…and your home is amazing. I love your choice in lighting especially! Oh, and your kitty looks like my, Sylvia! Have a wonderful night…XO
what a quirky, colorful home tour! any chance you remember where you purchased the gold pineapple bookends?
Megan – they are a vintage find from a thrift store. That’s all the info I have. Try eBay?
xo Michael
I just adore your warm, colorful living room. (But my favorite photo is the sleeping kitty.)
Isn’t he sweet? Thanks Amy!
