Halloween is almost here!  Are you ready? I took a short 10-day social media break toward the beginning of the month and now I’m in California, celebrating family events, so I had to quickly jump on here a share with all of you my Halloween table, kitchen and living room.  I shared my Halloween entry HERE if you missed it.  I’m going to post a ton of pics of each space below and then I’ll link the items (or similar) at the end of my post in the “Shop The Post” section.

Glam Halloween Tablescape With Blush & Leopard Velvet Pumpkins

These Hotskwash Pumpkins by Daria have been such a huge hit this fall.  And once again, for my Halloween tablescape, I have been able to add Daria’s gorgeous special edition grey and black leopard velvet pumpkins, mixed in with my blush pink velvet pumpkins, to create a glam and elegant place for my family and friends to sit and eat.

Glam Halloween Kitchen & Buffet

Vase and skull vase from HomeGoods.

So glad I found this Halloween banner from years ago.  I made it and it was perfect for my hood!

And my favorite candle now comes in black, which is perfect for Halloween!

A pretty glass cloche is such a lovely way to display a yummy candle on a stack of beautiful dessert plates.

These darling kitchen dish towels were such a fun HomeGoods find!

Trying to not ignore the butler’s pantry and instead decorate every nook and cranny with intention.  Sometimes this little space gets ignored or becomes a hotspot for mail or homework. Loved these black and white Grace’s Tea Dishes (find similar HERE and HERE) I also found at HomeGoods with the mini 3″ and 6″ blush pink HotSkwash velvet pumpkins.

The cutest witch napkins and plates from HomeGoods are the perfect way to serve some fresh macarons to friends and match all my decor.

Classy Witch Boot from a local boutique years ago. More on DIY Halloween Masquerade Masks in THIS POST.

Every with needs a place to hang her hat at the end of the day!

Glam Halloween Living Room, Mantel, & Bar Cart

After we enjoyed these Hotskwash velvet pumpkins on my tablescape, I moved them to my mantel and added this darling witches broom I found at HomeGoods and a few brass accents.

One of my favorite things about Fall is that it’s the beginning of that part of the year where one holiday leads to another and our home decor and festivities change every month and to celebrate!  It also means that, with all of the constant celebrating and changing of season and decor and favorite foods, that all of us bloggers have so much to share with you so we get together and organize blog hops.  It’s such a fun way to share all of our ideas and homes with our readers and our friends’ readers too.  Think of it as…an online party…
…and you’re invited!!!

So thank you for being here today, from wherever you came from, and we hope you make it around to all 6 blogs for this “Touches Of Fall” Home Tour Blog Hop.  I have set a blush velvet pumpkin tablescape for fall that I’ve been so excited to share with all of you.

The Prettiest Blush Pink Velvet Pumpkins

Recently I met Daria, the designer and creator behind Hot Skwash, and had the privilege of going to her office/warehouse  in Tigard, Oregon (just across the river from us) and see all of the gorgeous pumpkins and other creations in person.  She was so gracious to collaborate with me and help me create gorgeous fall vignettes with her pumpkins.  I recently shared some of her gorgeous pumpkins in my fall master bedroom post.

I told Daria that I had blush pink and golds and taupes in my living room and into my kitchen AND she knows how much I love pink so she made sure to send me home with a plethora of these new blush pink velvet pumpkins that she released this year.  I thought of mixing them with some other colors but we both agreed that it would break up the pink and not look as stunning.

I decided to do the same thing with faux blush fall roses (I used them in these candle wreaths also and on my fall mantel) and keep it monochromatic because using white roses or lighter blush pink roses took away from the blush pumpkins and distracted your attention.  I wanted them to compliment them instead.

I originally planned on using a certain tablecloth BUT when I brought out the eucalyptus and faux roses to place in between my pumpkins, I immediately knew that they’d look best on my pretty grey-stained table I refinished.  I love the rustic-glam look it created!

I recently received these gorgeous new blush and gold goblets and I’m soooooo in-love with them!  They were perfect for this tablescape!

Daria showed me these mini blush pumpkins with swarovski crystals and my jaw hit the floor!  I had to have them.  They not only look cute on top of each setting but they’d be so cute with a name card tied to them OR to give as a little gift or party favor if you were having a shower or brunch with girlfriends.

Aren’t they precious?!

Oh!  And I love that each pumpkin stem is signed by Daria herself….just like every piece of art should be!

I decided to use my gold chargers, vintage milk glass dishes and layered them with my white beaded dishes.

These blush pink ruffle dinner napkins made another appearance with my “goldie-ware”, as I call it (you call it gold flatware…haha).

Romantic Fall Table By Candlelight 

If you’re a regular reader, you know how much I love Agapé Candles, especially these new fall scents, and they were perfect to bring out at night in their pretty mercury glass votive sizes.

Cue music, light a fire in fireplace, add yummy food and you have the most beautiful and romantic blush rustic glam fall table with the prettiest blush velvet pumpkins.  Oh!  And good company, of course!

Create Your Own Blush Velvet Pumpkin Tablescape For Fall

I will link the items below that I used, or items like them, for your shopping convenience.  It is so easy to find things from your home that you already have to incorporate in a tablescape like this OR you can add to it and purchase pieces.  You’ll be able to mix and match good napkins, goblets, flatware, dinnerware and more when creating beautiful tables.  It’s really important to invest in good pieces that you’ll use over and over that are also within your budget.

The post Blush Velvet Pumpkins Tablescape For Fall appeared first on Summer Adams.

When we first moved into this home upon completion of the build last fall, we had the entire home painted the same color. It was easier that way and I truly didn’t know what I wanted for my office.  I finally put pieces together and revealed it in THIS POST.  It was lovely.  But something felt off….I knew what it was.  I needed to paint the walls a blush pink.  So I hired a painter and switched a few things up.  So here is my updated glam office reveal with blush pink walls.

Ok the “before” pics:

Again…it was lovely!  But if you know me and have followed me for a while….I LOVE PINK!!!!

Did you know I was actually born on National Pink Day?  Yep!  June 23rd and I just celebrated my 40th!  Ok, moving on….

The “after” pics:

The Blush Pink Paint Color I Chose:

I literally went through 15 samples of all shades of blush pink paint, of all different brands.  I went with my very first choice, oddly enough.  I found it at Lowe’s and it is called “Romance”, HGTV HOME by Sherwin Williams.  The code is: HGSW2067.
BUT!!!!  I had it mixed at 50%.
I did this with my other interior paint color throughout my home as well.

Even the ones that my friends swore by just didn’t look right in this office.  You have to remember that paint can look good on one wall but then if you put it on other walls in a different part of your home, it can look totally different. It might face the sun differently or the landscaping outside could have colors that reflect on the walls and make the color appearance vary as well.  The time of day, the interior decor, the season, etc.  There are so many factors.  So you just have to try different colors out and look at them in that space at different times of the day before making a decision.

There are 6 simple things I changed and updated for this office reveal.

ONE – Obviously, I painted the interior.

TWO – I swapped the desk and the cabinet and put them at the opposite sides of the room.  That way I could see my family coming and going easier and know what the kids are up to.

And if you watched my Instagram stories last month, I took out the middle leg because it didn’t do much but was an eye sore to look at.  Instead, I attached 2 small L-brackets to the wall and desk underneath for extra support and to keep it steady while working, typing, writing.

THREE -I added a gallery wall above the cabinet.

It took me FOREVER to figure out what I was doing here.  I looked at a ton of art but I have a lovely piece of canvas art on the other side of the room.  I already have a mirror.  I thought a gallery wall would be fun but I wanted it symmetrical and not too busy and cluttered or busy looking.  I also thought about a mood board but worried about the same previous dilemmas.

I included places of travel I love, fashion I love, and other pretty things.  The best part is that I can swap them out whenever I want.  Just like a mood board. I can frame things that inspire me.  I love that it’s symmetrical and clean-looking.

FOUR –  I swapped out my blush satin homemade curtains for pleated tab ivory curtains.

FIVE – I replaced the gold distressed mirror for a stunning venetian mirror.

SIX – I sold the infamous blush chair and found a new pretty one!

It physically pained me to sell my blush chair but blush on blush was not going to happen.  I was looking for something white and glam and the same style as the last one.  Remember….it looked like this…

So I looked and looked and I came across this sexy Hollywood Glam Tufted Acrylic White Club Chair from Decor Market.

They were kind enough to send it to me and help me get the look I had been envisioning for this space.  This is where my family comes in and sits and talks to me while I work.  Many memorable conversations happen right here and I love it.

Don’t you love those legs?!  This chair and mirror really took this sitting area to the next level and was even more sophisticated than the last.  I love it!  Please check out Decor Market for the most fabulous and affordable furniture!

Everything else stayed the same in the office!  The IKEA shelves, the office accessories, the art and sconces above my desk, the rug, the chandelier, round end table, and etagere end tables.  See my previous office blog post for any other details.

This darling BOW CHAIR has been a huge favorite of many viewers.  I sure love it too!

The post Updated Glam Office Reveal With Blush Pink Walls appeared first on Summer Adams.

Welcome!  Today I’m joining a fantastic group of talented interior & lifestyle bloggers for the “12 Days of Holiday Homes Tour”.  A huge thanks to my friends Christy & Amy of 11 Magnolia Lane for hosting and bringing us all together.  Blogger tours are such a neat way to, not only gain a TON of inspiration, but to find new blogs and designers to follow and connect with.  If you’re new here, make sure to find my social media channels on my sidebar and follow along with me!  One thing you’ll find is that I not only love a bright white home, but I absolutely love pink!  So today, Day #5, I’m sharing with you my blush pink flocked Christmas tree that’s in my new home office.

Oh, and you can hover over the top left corner of any picture and a “Pin It” button will appear so that you can pin it to Pinterest!

Our friends at Lynch Creek Farms are sponsoring our 12 Days of Holiday Homes Tour and they sent us each a wreath or other piece of our choice.  I chose this gorgeous Winter Radiance 26″ Wreath.

They have the PRETTIEST fresh wreaths, garlands, centerpieces, and trees.  They will ship it to your front door!  Everyone has been posting about them so I was so excited to get to order from them finally.

Last week I revealed my Winter Wonderland Tree, which is beautiful but much larger than this and it’s all white.  For my blush pink and gold office, I obviously wanted to put up a tree in the same colors, but I didn’t want as large of a tree.  So I grabbed one of our older, lightly flocked trees, from the garage (it’s this one) and most of the blush pink and champagne and gold ornaments from last year’s tree (from our previous home in back in Texas) to decorate this one.  But I wanted it to be softer and have less gold.

One thing I didn’t have 2 of were fur tree skirts.  I ran to a few local stores and they were out.  So, I grabbed my faux fur rug that normally lays flat on my office floor and I scrunched it up all around the bottom of the tree to create a tree skirt.  Why didn’t I think of that in the first place?  Easy peasy!

I bought these lovely blush metallic roses at Michaels.  The wings were from Hobby Lobby and the glass stiletto ornaments are from my darling friend Nicky Sinclair and her online boutique called Composition Lane. The gold spindle ornament was found at World Market last year.

All the blush ball ornaments were from Michaels and Hobby Lobby, as well as the sparkly bow ribbon on my tree.  All my sparkly blush and champagne-colored floral stems were also from Michaels.  I placed them in the tree so that they were gently hanging down, lying softly on a branch.

I cut strips of this extra wide mesh tinsel ribbon in approximately 18″ strips and tucked them down the center and sides of the tree, diagonally, to make it look as if it’s weaving in and out.  It’s pretty AND it saves a lot of money.

You don’t have to literally wrap your tree in ribbon.  It’s more difficult and more expensive and, personally, I like the way this looks best. Just my personal opinion though!  It’s wired too so it keeps its shape nicely and stays put.

I found this sparkly champagne round ornament at Crate & Barrel a few years ago.  If you can’t find the exact ornaments I used, I will include similar or suggested ornaments and items from this post at the end.

I also found these champagne-colored roses at Michaels.  I love the touch of romance that these roses add this tree, don’t you?!  You don’t have to use poinsettias just because it’s Christmas.  The round tinsel/jeweled ornaments were from Decorator’s Warehouse in Arlington, Texas and I found them last year.

I love making big bows from sparkly ribbon and pipe cleaner and then attaching them to the tree.

Of course, I also love to coordinate all of my presents with the tree.  I found a lot of beautiful wrapping paper HERE but all my cute white/gold and blush/gold gift boxes are linked below.  Scroll down to end of the post for the direct shopping links.

I had to have the “tis the season to sparkle” gift box when I saw it at Home Goods!  I also found that cute pink box with gold snowflakes there as well.  I’ve had good luck finding gift boxes there.

I pulled my cute bow office chair and this blush tufted bench over to the tree as I set all the presents down.  They just completed the look.  I wish I could share my entire office but we just finished building this home and moved in last month.  My office is a mess still on the opposite end of this room.  So it’ll be a couple of more weeks until I do an office reveal, as I’m waiting on a piece of furniture to help me get organized.  Make sure to check back for that!

That same sparkly ribbon I mentioned above was also used for the largest bow on the top of the tree.  I always like putting a large bow right below my star to add a touch of elegance and to tie it all together.  This star tree topper is one of my favorites. It looks like mercury glass and light bounces off of it so beautifully.

Take another look at that mesh tinsel ribbon.  As I mentioned, you tuck it in the branches diagonally, going down the front and sides of the tree in opposite directions.  It’s simple and I love the way it looks!

Tip:  You don’t just have to use holiday bags and wrapping paper and gift boxes around your tree!  As I find pretty boxes and bags and paper throughout the year, I stash it and know that I can use it at Christmas time and maybe just dress my packages up with sparkly ribbon.

The sun was setting on this side of the house as I was wrapping up this photo shoot but I just loved the way the room was “glowing” with those warm tones. I had to snap a pic and share it with you!

I love being in my office!  I love how “me” it is.  Your office should reflect your style and personality and I wanted my blush pink flocked Christmas tree to do the very same thing and incorporate all the pretty things I love.

Thanks so much for joining me here today and I hope that you’ll be back!  Here are the shopping links below, for your convenience.

Please make sure to join the other 2 friends of mine below for Day #5 AND make sure to continue on tomorrow with our next group. Of course, you can always catch up on the days you missed because there is so much inspiration.  Make sure to pin all the things you love to Pinterest for later.

A special thank you to Lynch Creek Farms for sponsoring our tour and providing all the beautiful greenery showcased throughout the homes.

Here is the entire tour schedule if you missed any homes:
