Happy Friday friends! Â Made it to the weekend! Â YEA. Â Today I’m sharing my Fall kitchen decor although I have to warn you.. it’s pretty simple. Â Hence the title of this post – Simple Fall kitchen decor. Â I know.. so much creativity happening already. Â We better slow things down. ;)
One reason I keep my holiday kitchen decor so simple is because the kitchen can get so messy throughout the day – and full of other things. Â When you have meals and backpacks and mail and all sorts of randomness all over your counter there isn’t much room for pumpkins.
So I put my pumpkins up high. Â Just a few. Â Little things – to enjoy. ;) Â The white pumpkins are real, the orange pumpkins are these from PB (they look real!) and the wicker pumpkins are from Home Goods.
Baskets feel cozy and perfect for Fall, don’t they? Â They will always be one of my favorite things to decorate (and organize!) with. Â So much texture.
Mini white pumpkins in a wooden bowl? Â YES.
Mini white pumpkins in the butler’s pantry? Â YES again. Â :) Â We use our Barn Light Electric dishes a lot so I wasn’t quite ready to switch those out. Â My plant next to them amuses me. Â Regardless of where I put this plant in my house and regardless of how much I water and baby it, it seems to just do whatever it wants. Â So moody! Â One minute it’s happy and vibrant and full of life and the next minute it’s drooping and sad.
Kinda like a certain 13 year old I know. ;)
Simple faux branches in the dining nook.

I’ve had so many questions about the pumpkins on my family room fireplace mantel – whether they are real or fake.
All real pumpkins on the mantel!  With faux leaves around them (similar here).  I use a mix of real and faux this time of year to decorate (just like I do with flowers) and I’ve found that if you do that everything starts to look real.  It’s quite a trick. There I go with all that creativity again. ;)
Simple Fall kitchen decor.
I really love this time of year.  It kind of feels like the calm before the storm, doesn’t it?  Peaceful and serene, even though something is brewing just below the surface.  ;)  Don’t get me wrong.  I love that storm.  I look forward  to it all year.  The great big crazy Christmas storm.
But the calm before the storm is pretty nice too. Â Inviting and cozy. Â Like a lived in, well worn couch.
I’m soaking it up as much as possible. Â And hope that you are too.

Wonderful simple additions to your decor make your beautiful home even more inviting and cozy, Erin. Great tip to mix faux and real items. Love the look you achieved. Well done! :) Yes, definitely the calm before the storm. Soak it in.
Thank you Jeanne! Totally soaking it in! Hope you are too. ;) Happy weekend cutie! xo
I’m loving how well your fall decorations blend with your decor! Definitely going to use that tip of mixing real with faux this time of year!
Thank you Alexis! Happy weekend! :) xo
Beautiful as always! I was just wondering, what material/color are you perimeter counters? The dark and white is always a classic!
Thank you Emily! They are quartz! The perimeter is “raven” – caeserstone. :) xo
I love the simplicity!! The pumpkins are wonderful…I have them all over my house too. Adds just the right amount of fall to the space. Makes you feel all warm and cozy. Hope you have a terrific weekend, Erin! xxoo
Thank you Pam! Pumpkins are just happy aren’t they!? Warm and cozy for sure. :) Enjoy your weekend too cutie! xo

Where did you get your “Enjoy the Little Things” sign?
From at etsy shop called House of Belonging. :) xo
My favorite I’ve seen this fall! Love it! Those PB pumpkins are impressive, too.
So sweet of you Lisa! Thank you! I agree.. closest to real pumpkins I’ve seen! xo
I think you are very creative, Erin! You know that you do not like clutter, so you’ve developed a style for decorating that fills the need for some seasonal decor, but you leave the “over-the-top” decorating to people like me….lol! I love how you’ve mixed the real and the faux, and it all looks very warm and cozy! I think that wooden bowl of pumpkins in your kitchen window is stunning, and I love how you decorated that shelf above your stove top.
Hope you are having a great week!

You are a sweetheart Carol! Thank you for your thoughtful comment! I do tend to like a clean look with small touches of decor, although I love seeing over the top decor other people do too! And with Christmas all bets are off and I go crazy with all you “over the toppers.” ;) I hope you are enjoying this fun season! Thanks again cutie! xo
So beautiful, Erin! I love all of your fall touches in your amazing home. The wooden bowl with pumpkins on your windowsill is wonderful. Do you remember where you got it? Thanks! :)
Thank you so much Wendy! I’m so happy you like that. :) I think I got that bowl from Magnolia Market (Chip and Jo’s) on-line! xo
