Can you believe it is almost October and it’s officially fall? Let me show you some beautiful decorating ideas for the fall.
Today, I’m sharing my fall home tour as part of the Bloggers’ Best Fall Home Tours hosted by my lovely friend Kelly, from the Tattered Pew.
Kelly has organized 30 wonderfully talented home décor bloggers to share their homes with you. Their homes are filled with so much fall decorating ideas and inspiration.
If you are coming over from my friend Kristin, White Arrows Home, welcome! She has such a beautiful home in the Northwoods of Wisconsin.
For those of you that are new, I am Tammy. Together with my husband and little fur baby Piper (2-year old French Bulldog), we live in historical Southern Maryland.
You will often see Piper in my photos as she is never far from me.
I am so glad that you stop by to see my cozy fall home tour. I hope you find some decorating inspiration here.
Our modern new built farmhouse has an open concept. Therefore, there is no foyer area. You walk straight into the dining room area with my home office to the right.
With an open concept, the key is to have the design flow from room to room. That design includes colors that flow and coordinate together.
This year, I am using a lot of earthy tones in my fall decorations. You will see lots of textures, wood elements and even dried flowers from my garden.
Here are some beautiful decorating ideas for the fall.
dining room
The dining room is the first room you see when entering our home.
Instead of a runner or tablecloth, I used a wool throw on the table. Often I will use a throw as a tablecloth or table square depending on the size of it. I believe in working with what you have in the home first.
After creating my center piece, I bunched up the throw around it. I love the warm tones in this throw and the texture it adds to the wooden table.
You often see that I love to incorporate plants into my home decorations. It makes no difference if you use real or faux. I use both in my home.
Greenery helps to create that cozy feeling in the room. Try adding a pumpkin or fall pick into your plant for more visual interest.
I made a moss topiary for my sideboard. You can read about it here. It is so easy to make and a lot more reasonable then to purchase one new.
This creamy white pumpkin use to be orange. I decided to paint it to fit into my fall decorations. You can find my full tutorial at Beautiful Pumpkin Makeover With Dixie Belle Paints.
living room
The kitchen, kitchen dining area and family room all flow into a large space. It is perfect for us with a large family. We have grown children and a growing family with 4 grandchildren. There is lots of space for the grands to play.
I found this wonderful rug that come in various sizes. It is so plush and soft. The grand littles love to lay and watch television on it. This rug is amazing and cleans up so well.
All of the items found in my home can be found on my “SHOP MY HOME”.
The wreath over my fireplace is actually two wreathes. I found an over sized grapevine wreath in my basement. I hung the grapevine wreath and added the 24″ wreath centered over top of it. Now it fits the space!
Lots of textures on the fireplace to soften the stark white hearth and mantel.
I design with comfort in mind. Pillows and throws will be tossed on the floor. Grandchildren and dogs will lay on them too. The items for my home must be children and pet friendly.
The pumpkins are actually pillows. The grand littles can take them out of the basket. They love to lay on them.
This wreath is recycled from a few years ago. I store all of my wreathes in plastic wreath boxes. It keeps them protected and looking good for years to come.
kitchen dining area
The kitchen dining area, I kept very simple this year. A tall terra cotta vase was added with some hydrangeas dried from my garden. If you are interested in learning how to dry hydrangeas, I have a tutorial on how to dry hydrangeas.
Over the coffee bar, I added a few fall touches. I made this wood bead fall wreath.
On the opposite site of the table area, I have my favorite bench. I bought this bench from a friend. She made the bench from an old bed. It’s a favorite spot for my grandchildren to sit. I love to sit and read here too.
Hope you enjoyed these beautiful decorating ideas. Be sure to pop over to my talented friend, Rachel at The Ponds Farmhouse. She is sharing all of her budget friendly tips with you to create a beautifully decorated home for the fall.

Aliya says
Tammy!! I loved your home tour! I love that those pumpkins you have are pillows for the littles. I do things like that too because of my littles!! Such a beautiful way to decorate with function in mind!! Always love hopping with you friend!!! XoXo
Tammy says
Aliya, I have neighbors that come over with their children. I hear them tell the children don’t touch anything of Ms. Tammy. I immediately jump in and tell the Mamas to relax this house is to be lived in. There is nothing that they can hurt that cannot be replaced. I want people to cozy up and feel welcome. I may move a vase or two before littles come over into my office out of harms way. I think now they all know, to come and enjoy.
stacy says
Tammy your home looks beautiful for fall! How cute are those pumpkins for the little ones. They are adorable. Happy Fall! xoxo
Tammy says
I had to put up the large white pumpkin. Piper thought it was one of her toys. NOT! LOL
Jennifer Hadfield says
Hi Tammy!
Such a pretty tour! I love the way you used faux and real plants in your home! Your mantel is so pretty and I love the cozy touches you incorporated throughout your home! I pinned your home to my fall board to share! Thanks for letting me stop by!
xoxo
Tammy says
Jennifer thank you so much and for pinning. I greatly appreciate it.

Your tour is lovely, Tammy! Those pumpkin pillows are so cozy, and I love the little textured pumpkin picks you put in the plants. So many lovely fall details in your home! I’m getting ready to transform some pumpkins myself! Pinned, and lovely touring with you!
Tammy says
Julie, thank you so much sweet friend.
Cindy@CountyRoad407 says
Nice to meet you Tammy! I would love to live in a historical town. Is it like a Hallmark movie? Your style is beautiful and perfectly decorated for fall. Love your bed bench. We made one out of a full size bed and I think it’s my favorite DIY to date. I need a cushion though. We double up the quilt but it’s definitely not soft enough. Enjoyed hopping with you this week. Happy Fall!
Tammy says
Not quite a Hallmark movie, but the sweet town of Leonardtown has wonderful events and great restaurants. Not like the bigger historical towns.
Kate @ Southern Home and Hospitality says
Tammy your home looks so lovely and cozy for fall! I love the plaid blanket on the dining table. And also a fan of your dining chandelier and pumpkin pillows – so much that I have the same.😂 So wonderful to be on the tour with you. Happy Fall!
Tammy says
Love it that we have same tastes in things. Thank you about my chandelier, I did not want anything fancy and felt it went well with the home.
Elizabeth@pineconesandacorns says
Tammy,
Everything looks beautiful and cosy for Fall. I LOVE love love the plaid on the table, the pumpkin pillows in the basket. I can just imagine how lovely this is for you, and your family and friends that get to see it in person!
Have a wonderful weekend, you are in my thoughts.
Tammy says
Thank you, Elizabeth for stopping over to the blog. Wasn’t that plaid throw a great fine? I found it a local store and snagged it up.
Lynne Zemaitis says
Tammy, your fall home is lovely! The colors and textures are beautiful! I love how you used the wool throw on your table, the double wreath on your mantle, along with your pretty dried hydrangeas. It is all so cozy and welcoming! Happy Fall, my friend!
