Happy hump day,

every year I am looking forward to share our Christmas tree with you guys. I can go all out on Christmas decor, Christmas songs and just get in the spirit for the season.

This year I wanted a traditional color but also very glamorous so I decided to go with gold. You can never go wrong with one of the Christmas colors like gold or red. Since I had red last year this was the natural choice.

One thing I needed to switch out this year have been the lights. We always used string lights but to be honest it was a pain the a** to put them on every year. So I decided to get single lights this year which are turned on with a remote and let me tell you it is so convenient.

I got a pack of 30 pieces off of amazon and love them very much. They definitely add extra flair to the tree.

If you are looking for some extra inspiration for your Christmas tree I am linking my tree´s from the last years for you.

Mint green and silver

Pink and black

Red and green

Have you spotted the pickle on the tree??

Do you know the story behind it? It is supposed to be hidden in the tree and the person who finds it first will receive a little present. Cute and easy am I right.

Did you decorate your tree already? I know it is early putting the Christmas tree up on the 1rst of November but it somehow became a tradition over here.

Tips on decorating your front porch…

Hello my fall loving ladies,

(post contains affiliate links/Werbung/Markennennung/Beitrag enthält Affiliste Links-not sponsored)

I have been decorating my front porch for Fall for years now and some years I love it better than others but in general if there are pumpkins and mums I am satisfied. Mums are the perfect Fall flowers as the colors are beautiful, I personally prefer the burgundy variation but I love them all.

And of course lots and lots of pumpkins – the ultimate Fall symbol. We went to the pumpkin patch two weeks ago and got some great pumpkins, besides the gorgeous orange ones a really cool green one and some pretty whtie ones. But let´s start on assembling. I wanted to share some of my tips and what has worked well for our entrance.

Tips on decoration your front porch

– add color – like different mums

– mix real pumpkins and ceramic ones

– add different flowers

– hang a Fall themed wreath on your door

– add different door mates – a bigger and a smaller one or a plain and a patterned one

– get a wodden sign for your entrance (I am definitely buying one for next year)

– play with heights (different pots, different sizes of flowers and pumpkins)

– use different planters to make it interesting

I love to deocrate for Fall whether it is indoors or outdoors. What is your favorite time to decorate?

How to properly burn down your candles + fall favorites…

I love candles. It is that easy to say. Give me a scented candle with a cute picture on the front of the jar and I am definitely sold. I am weak in that way but that´s how things are. That´s also why I probably own more candles than a church and have no problem to supply the whole neighborhood should there be a blackout.

My personal favorite brands are Yankee Candle, Village Candle and the cute Fall candles from Bath&Body Works. My most used candle time definitely is Fall and Winter. There are so many cute Summer candles but I am in no mood to light a candle when it´s searing hot outside.

How to properly burn down your candles

The first and most important step is to cut back the wick. It should only be a few millimetres long. That is how you get a small and constant flame to properly burn down the candle. It is also recommended to cut it back after every time you light it up.

Another important thing is the location of the candle. For a evenly burnt candle there should be no breeze that disturbs the flame from burning evenly or you will have wax on the side of the jar that is left. Would be a total waste of money and product.

For the last step (probably not even a real one) your candle should fit seamlessly into your seasonal decor. Fall is my favorite so I went with a bunch of different pumpkins on my mantle.

Are you a candle person? And did you knew how important it was to cut the wick before burning it the first time?

How to incorporate fancy pumpkins into your Fall decor…

Hello my fellow home decor lovers,

(post contains affiliate links/Werbung/Markennennung/Beitrag enthält Affiliate Links-not sponsored)

I love Fall and can´t wait for the 1rst of September to come around every year. It is my official start for Fall and although I can not wear my new and beloved Fall clothing now cause the temperatures don´t play along I can decorate my house for colorful Autumn days.

There are tons of different Fall decor out there but to be honest my favorite pieces are Fall candles and pumpkins. Getting new Fall candles are my jam. To be honest I love candles year round but Fall is THE time to light a candle and get cozy at home.

How to incorporate fancy pumpkins to your home decor

Style your fancy pumpkin in a bunch of different pumpkins. I love to incorporate different sizes, colors and structures of pumpkins into a decoration scheme, also different heights. That´s what makes it interesting. Adding some fake flowers or real Fall flowers adds up even more to your decor.

Style them as a center piece like I did with the studded pieces on the tray. The only decor I got there are the pumpkins so the focus stays on them. You can add some matches if you like to complement the Fall feel.

Style your pumpkin with a Fall candle to create the ultimate Fall setup. I went with the glittery big white pumpkin and Harvest Walk from Yankee Candle. It is my favorite corner in our living room.

Are you decorating for Fall? I definitely need to do our porch as well. Getting a bunch of pumpkins and mums on the weekend.
