{ Neutral Farmhouse Style FALL Dining Room Tablescape }

Finally today I'm sharing our neutral farmhouse inspired dining room & tablescape!! I wanted to share yesterday, but ran out of time to photograph two upcoming blog post which I'm SO EXCITED to share!! If we're being honest & real as I like it here on TQS....I've been soo tired lately & very busy with life!!! I'm excited we're sharing our 7th wedding anniversary { I feel old } together this weekend with some festivities. Our original plans were broken due to work { life of entrepreneurs } but I'm not complaining at all!! Anyways today I'm back with our super neutral farmhouse dining room, tablescape & ANOTHER new dining table haha! I wanted to keep things super simple this year, as most years I go crazy with fall. Going neutral & simple doesn't mean I'm not into fall like other years', it just means it's more my style this year & of course much more practical for the average everyday person to achieve. Come see this fun space below!!!

 

  

I actually started my whole neutral/textured/brown/ rustic theme after spotting these yarn pumpkins +Target in the dollar spot section for $3 each! The battery operated distressed gold garland are also from Target dollar spot. I mentioned this a few post back, but I crave lights & that bit of cozy whimsical charm around fall, so these were perfect!!

 

I kept the table super simple by adding mini burlap pumpkins from Dollar Tree, lace & burlap runner & some brown mason jars!! The ticking stripe cloth napkins are form +Bed Bath & Beyond  for $1.47 each #score hehe!!!

 

You can see the post on that " Fall Welcomes You" here -->Fall Centerpiece & New Art Piece! 

**P.S. Stay tuned for the reveal of this new artist & goods!

 

Again, like I said a few posts back, my style has changed a bit from authentic farmhouse to a more modern farmhouse style. The rug is from +Ruggable® 2-Piece Rug System  & I'm obsessed with it. You can see the full post here --->New Rug by Ruggable Brand

 

I'll be getting custom slipcovers for those black parsons soon { our white IKEA parsons were too big, so I switched them out for these}..until then I added some cozy pillows, a vintage picnic basket to warm the space up & some neutral round place-mats.

  

I'm loving this new big oval middle base table!! I had been searching for one for a long time & finally ended up swapping tables with my gram. I mean it was right in front of my face this whole time haha & I discovered it had a leaf which is going to be great for the holidays!! Little fact about me..I dislike tables without a middle stand/base. They're hard to shuffle around & with a middle base you can move/place chairs so much easier. I think it's kind of a space saver too. I might paint or distress this one soon...;)

 

These plates are out of my vintage Christmas collection passed down from my gram.

 

I think the pops of black keep it from being too farmhousy. Sometimes that chippy/dull/neutral style can get out of hand..

 

I hope you guys liked this fall post. How do you guys decorate your dining table for fall? Are you more neutral or colorful?! Leave me some feedback in the comments below ;)! 

Happy Wednesday!!!

{ DIY Fall Chalkboard Tray Wreath }

Hey everyone!! I hope you guys had a lovely weekend...We didn't do much & quite frankly snuggled  & slept a lot to be honest! This year has been full of ups & downs and this weekend threw a few curve balls for my OCD self... When I get into those funks I need something to distract me from the OCD, so I took on a little project!! My sister & I had a little "crafting" session & you guys know for me I'm not much into crafts other than once or twice a year haha..I had an old tray laying around in our "treasure" pile again & had white washed it with some scrap paint a few months back & just kind of left it there..I decided to add some chalkboard paint to it & make a little "wreath" out of it! I had some fall swag beading from last year I got from +Michaels Stores  & it made for a perfect rustic, yet whimsical boarder!! This project cost under $15 & about an hours time! Come see this cute little project just in time for fall!!

 

S u p p l i e s: 

• Chalkboard paint
• Brush/ Sponge brush
• Tray { any one will do }
• Greenery/Leaves/twine etc..
• Painters tape 
• Chalk

I n s t r u c t i o n s:

Paint your tray whatever color you want or leave as is. Section off  a square inside the tray { you could paint the whole inside too } & paint with chalkboard paint. I used two coats & then seasoned the area { chalk entire surface & wipe clean}. After everything is dry take your greenery or twin & wrap around the perimeter & through the handles etc.. Super simple & festive!!

 

I decided to style it in our lower level for now..Stay Tuned!!  I love this chippy old green chair too..another free find & the two just went so well I couldn't pass them up haha!

 

Loving the pop of color down in our lower level. My sister & I just had a conversation about our lower level that left me confused haah..So usually people gather downstairs in the warmer months, but nope not us..We always seem to flock to our lower level starting in September all the way through the holidays..maybe because it's so cozy & we're hibernating hehe ?!

**The pumpkins are from +Hobby Lobby 

 

- F A L L is for LOVERS - 

 

This tray is a bit thicker, but just about any tray will work. If you're planning on hanging it on the door be sure it's slender enough to fit!

 

What do you guys think about this thrifty little DIY project? I'm loving the simplicity & festive look! Wishing you all a happy & healthy week!

HAPPY MONDAY!
