Hey y’all and HAPPY FALL! Autumn is officially here in Charlotte with a slight nip in the air, pumpkins galore at the grocery store, Fall wreaths on the door, and I don’t look like a crazy person wearing boots and a scarf outside. 🙂

With every new season, that means it’s time for another Seasonal Scape Challenge! I’ve teamed up with some of my favorite bloggers and instagrammers and each of us are sharing our favorite Fall Scape. Take a look below for all the pretty ‘scapes!

Let’s start with my scape. Last week we spent a day decorating my client’s home for Fall and because it’s so pretty: we decided to share their home as part of this challenge!

First stop? The mantel…

Isn’t this squirrel so cute? I already know a spot Mr. Squirrel would look perfect on my kitchen island. You can enter to win this squirrel ($100 value)! Here is what you do:

1. Post an image of your Fall or Halloween Scape on Instagram, it can be your mantel, foyer, coffee table, whatever your heart desires. Use the hashtag #SeasonalScapeChallenge

Pick up any fashion magazine or look on just about any social media site and you will see Burgundy everywhere. It’s back and in a big way – in home decor and fashion. Now, trust me, we have had a lot of conversations about this over the last several weeks. First, nobody likes the word Burgundy. It seems like it takes us back to the 90s when Burgundy and Hunter Green ruled the roost.

Well never fear, whether you want to call it Burgundy or Merlot or Oxblood or Garnet – it’s still Burgundy. But it’s an updated Burgundy that is less Brown based and more purple based. Now I’m not suggesting that you go backwards to Burgundy and Hunter Green. But touches of the old/new color can sure add some spice to your life and show that you are right on trend.

Here are a few ways to incorporate Burgundy into your home decor and your personal style as an accent or hey go crazy with it.

Freshen up your basic black outfit with a pop of Burgundy Color! So Chic!

Mix the return of Burgundy with the return of Gold to make a major statement.

With all of the white and grey we are using in our clean, neutral decor today – accent pillows of Burgundy will add just a bit of sophistication and glam to any room. And what could be easier than pillows to update your space.

Whether it’s a little or a lot come back to the future with Awesome Burgundy. I know I am.
