Commona My House: An Autumn Welcome Home Tour {Commona My House}

I am so excited to give you an Autumn Welcome!!!

Everyday Enchanting and One Krieger Chick have pulled together a fabulous group of bloggers this week to show you how we add touches of Autumn to our homes!!! I'm so thrilled to be a part of this very talented group!
The entire week of tours is linked up by day below!

Some of my friends and favorite bloggers are on the tour this week so be sure to follow the links to see their tours !!!

Thank you so much!

We moved to this home just over a year ago. I've slowly been updating things here and there in order to not only make it feel more like 'us' but also to bring it up to date.

So, this blogger, right here, doesn't live in a magazine picture perfect home.
Maybe some of you can relate.
Do I tackle things as I can?
You bet.
Does my home look finished and perfect all the time?
Absolutely not.
In fact, I have MAJOR projects that are on going as we speak: My Library Reading Room, which has about 4 more projects to be completed, as well as my kitchen, which has had some recent sheet rock work and will be going through a mini-face lift within the next month (paint+paint+maybe back splash update). We've moved 14 times in 17 years and that may not be our final #. I work with what I have and adjust to the new layout in stages.

I add layers of color and texture in the fall, even though I know that another rug would work better in the space, it's the rug I have. I hate my blinds and know that shutters aren't an option, I'll be hoping to change things out for natural, bamboo/rattan blinds within the next couple of months.

Can anyone relate?

The good thing about evolving a home is that my taste has evolved over the years and I'm finally aware if my own style direction. My home is perfectly imperfect.
Someday I may have the type of little cottage home that I dream about....and have each and every room practically perfect in every way...I'm not giving up on that ...but for now, I work around awkward room layouts and mantles that can't hold everything I'd like them to.
And it's alright by me.
Because there is fun in the pursuit.
There's fun in the process and the exercise of decorating to express yourself.

Here's my home tour.
It's maybe more of a showcase of vignettes...

I hope you have at least one take away that will inspire you to welcome Autumn into your home in ways that bring you comfort and joy!
