My first choice was to add some to the family room.
Since my LR and FR are open to each other through a large opening, and I added a little bit of rusty/orange to the LR, I thought adding a little of this same color tone continued the flow. I kept the LR really subtle, you can see that post here.
Again, I am using what I have and this deep burnt orange was previously in the LR, so I pulled it out and it is perfect to spice up the FR.
As I lived with this a few hours, it seemed like the orange napkins on the table just screamed. I am trying to practice the art of "subtle", not "screaming", so I added the brown check napkins with the orange and it toned it down just right.
See what I mean, the brown and orange together is much better, don't you think?
I love to change things up and it's even more fun if it doesn't cost a dime.

Fall looks beautiful in your home , Marty.
ReplyDeleteLooks great, Marty! Want to come decorate mine? It's hard to get in the mood when it's still warm outside!
ReplyDeleteMarty,
ReplyDeleteBeautiful job, I really like what you've added, the brown and burnt orange look lovely. Your home looks so cozy and festive. XO ~Liz
Marty those colors look beautiful in your home! I love orange and brown together!
ReplyDeleteYour fall touches are so pretty Marty!
ReplyDeleteI've been looking for a wicker chair for a while for my living room. Is the one in your family room antique or new? I love it! Your Fall decor is great. Sally
ReplyDeleteEverything looks so lovely. I just started to put out some things too. Alittle late for me.I will post some pictures later on my new blog.
ReplyDeleteNice touches, Marty! Just enough for me! I added some Fall in myself this past weekend, but I kept it somewhat simple.
ReplyDeleteThis looks wonderful! I love how such small changes can change the feel of a room.
ReplyDeleteMarty,
ReplyDeleteI love you additions of orange and brown to the Family Room and the Breakfast table, dear friend! "Shopping the House" is one of my favorite types of shopping, too! Thank you for sharing the subtle changes in your lovely home to Welcome Fall!!!
Fondly,
Pat
I love all your subtle fall decor. As you said, they do not scream fall but you still feel the fall vibe.
ReplyDeleteLooks pretty and very Fall! Did you get a new/old scale...did I miss that?
ReplyDeleteSuch a pretty fall look Marty....and I agree with your napking decision. Nice the first way, but adding the brown check seals the deal! Jane
ReplyDeleteYou are the best at changing things up with the seasons. I love you style. Everything looks beautiful...as usual.
ReplyDeleteLooks great, gosh y ou sure have a lovely home, Marty- but you know what caught my eye the most? It's that awesome bowl of fresh fruit!
ReplyDeleteOne of these days soon I will make my house over, but not yet, just not yet!!!!
Everything looks lovely! Festive but chic!
ReplyDeleteSo golden and cozy. I love your print of the prayerful man. It's perfect for a dining room.
ReplyDeleteI love fall accents you put here and there, giving the rooms a complete new look! Beautiful!
ReplyDeleteDon't you just hate it when your napkins "scream" at you! LOL. I love that you layered the brown checked napkins with them. Everything looks beautiful, as always, Marty! I love that you have such a neutral base palette that you can play any colors off of it! Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteWhat a warm and welcoming space! I love the restful colors and it just begs to cozy up and relax or chat with friends. Beautiful!
ReplyDeleteLove all your fall accents Marty... Linda
ReplyDeleteMarty, I love your fall decor! You have just the right amount of the burnt orange. I really over did my decorations in my Family Room. I am just so homesick for the Fall colors I always over do.
ReplyDeleteEverything looks so beautiful! I want your King Charles Spaniel paintings! So cute.
ReplyDeleteYour house is gorgeous Marty and Autumn becomes her! I love all your perfect touches and throws. Loving all the burnt oranges too, I just adore fall.
ReplyDeleteMarty, there's a new blogger and I know your generosity and so I think she'll be thrilled with a visit from you...her thumbnail in today's TTT says: "Touches of Green" and the blog is: crystalgrandeur. She needs to have visitors, and to be known by other bloggers, as she's got a beautiful blog, She's from India. Thank you so much.

HI MARTY!!
ReplyDeleteI think FALL decor is by far my fav of all!!!
I do not know why..I just LOVE IT!!!!
Makes me think of something we do not have I guess....fall leaves!!
hugs,
jamie
I have been surfing online more than 3 hours these days, yet I by no means found any attention-grabbing article like yours. It is beautiful value enough for me. In my opinion, if all web owners and bloggers made good content as you did, the web will probably be a lot more useful than ever before.

It all looks so pretty, Marty. Hope it cools down a bit more for you. :)
ReplyDeleteVery lovely and inviting home you have there...
ReplyDeleteLooks great Marty!
ReplyDeleteSorry, but I had to laugh when you said you were down in the 90's! I hope it cools down more for you soon!
As always, very lovely! You can come decorate my house any time.
ReplyDeleteYour touches of orange are so pretty and perfect for fall! Love the orange Rooster!
ReplyDeleteSo pretty Marty...even small changes make such a difference. I love your decor using feathers and I have been trying to copy it although I don't think mine look as nice as yours. I love your blog and check it every day for new posts...take care.
ReplyDeleteMarty, your home looks so pretty! It all flows so well and all your touches of Fall looks beautiful! I love your style!
ReplyDeleteMarty, your home is beautiful and I LOVE the colors! HUGS AND BLESSINGS, cINDY

ReplyDeleteI love it! I also want to say that I think it is awesome you have a blog and are into technology, social media, and staying connected!!

I'll keep you updated.
Big Hugs,
