It’s officially that time of year when I want to buy everything cozy. Cute fall mules, warm candles, cozy lounge sets and pretty fall decor are all starting to fill my Amazon cart.
Today I’m sharing 10 things that are currently on my fall wish list and in my Amazon cart. Be sure to click the numbers below for links 🙂
As soon as the air gets a little chilly and that first leaf hits the ground, one of my favorite things to do is decorate the front porch. I’ve got some fall inspiration for you with planter box ideas. Each one is so easy, adorable and will add the right touch of fall to your front porch.
And as always, you can click the thumbnail photos under each to shop.
1.) Faux mums in wooden barrels – Yes you heard me right, faux mums. I went faux years ago and I’ve never looked back. And wooden barrels make a great fall planter idea. I think this front porch was possibly my favorite with the cornstalks and all the pumpkins!
2.) Galvanized buckets – They’re rustic and not only could you use them for planters, but I also think a giant galvanized tub full of pumpkins would be really cute for fall. I’m showing you how my friend Jen from Tater Tots and Jello decorated her porch. I love the colorful, whimsical vibe don’t you?
3.) Planter boxes with trees -Last year I got these faux maple trees on Amazon and they’ve quickly become a favorite amongst you all! Just place in some traditional black planter boxes for a classic look.
4.) Trash cans – yes you heard me right. You can use trash cans. I got these black plastic waste paper baskets from The Dollar Store and used them as planters for my mums!
5.) Ornamental kale and cabbage in bushel baskets – If you’re looking to add some green and break away from the traditional pumpkins and mums, try some ornamental kale or cabbage. And I’m showing you how to put together this easy pumpkin topiary too! Click here.
6.) Pumpkin topiary in urns – Urns just add a stately aesthetic and I love how my friend Jennifer from Midwest Life and Style used hers as a planter idea for a classic pumpkin topiary. (You can see her whole porch here). I’ve also used urns for boxwood topiaries and even for my cornstalks!
Creating a warm and welcoming front porch and decorating for fall is one of my favorite things. So in the spirit of fall, I’ve rounded up some of my favorite wreaths, and staple fall front door decor from Amazon. I think starting with a basic welcome mat, some faux plants and an eye catching wreath is key and then you can fill in with more pumpkins and gourds as the season goes on.

(Side note – I own these and love!!!)
I always start by gathering things I already have at home and taking an inventory first. I will usually see from there if I can come up with a coordinating color palette.
I started with white every day dishware and brown woven placemats that I had. I layered it on top of these beautiful blue chargers I got from Amazon.
I had the brown linen napkins already. I knew that I was going to add my gold candlesticks to the table so I decided to complement them with some gold napkin rings. I found these gold metal leaf rings on Amazon as well.
I love to decorate using amber and teal glass bottles so I decided to use those to create a centerpiece. To add a seasonal pop of color I filled the bottles with faux leaves in rich orange hues.
Now you could most certainly add a table runner if you wanted to. I liked how it looked without.
When setting my tables for every day I don’t set with flatware just because it’s less for the kids to play with and get their hands on. If you’re having guests over, I would choose a beautiful gold flatware.
