1st Week of September Decorating Ideas:

Transition from Summer to Fall…

September decorating can be a bit challenging.  Even though the days are getting cooler, I’m not quite ready to pull out all the pumpkins and fall decor.  That’s why I love decorating with sunflowers in September.  They’re kind of summer…kind of fall…and you don’t need many to brighten up a space!

Later this month, I’ll be sharing my fall home tour.  So, be sure to come back to see my latest decorating ideas!

September Decorating with Fall Flowers:

Yes, it’s hydrangea season…

Sunflowers aren’t the only flowers blooming in September.  Here in New Jersey, my hydrangea bushes are in full bloom!  In my opinion, hydrangeas are some of the prettiest flowers to use in home decor…

    1. Thanks Carol! Wow, how lucky! Some of ours bloom all summer and then just into early fall. (Sorry for the delay in responding. For some reason your comments went into my spam folder!

  1. Shelley, I love sunflowers! I bought fall flowers this weekend. I arranged three different containers. Love fresh flowers in our home. Happy Fall!

  2. I love how you are easing into the Fall season in your home. I just started decorating myself, but its still 85-90 out! I have a brand new link party called Home Imagine. Stop by with your post if you can. Have a great day.

    1. Thanks! Yes, it’s still pretty hot here but today we have some rain to cool it off. I’ll definitely stop by for your link party – thanks!

  3. I agree – it’s too early for pumpkins! But sunflowers? Oh, yes! The velvet pillow covers are beautiful! This first week of September we planned a last hurrah down the shore, but, sadly, it rained both of our two full days there, so we left early. 🙁 No rain all summer until planned a beach trip! Oh, well………

    1. Oh no! You’re right, for the most part it didn’t rain the entire summer! Maybe you can plan another getaway!
