Hello! Welcome to Life Love Larson! If you are hopping over from Inspiration for Moms, I’m glad you’re here! Don’t you love Laura’s effortless style? I’m happy to have become Instagram friends with her! I’m so grateful to Marty @ A Stroll Thru Life, for including my little blog in her home tours. I’ve been blogging for 8 years now, and I love being a part of these tours. I’m not a traditional “fall” decorator! I know, I know. I absolutely love the season, but I’m not naturally drawn to a lot of fall decor. I keep it simple inside with a few pillow/throw changes, add in some candles and always fresh flowers. I might add a few pumpkins and change up the mantel, but you’re not going to see big changes from me. I do, however, love to decorate my porch and patio, which is what you will see today! Let’s get started!
This is fall to me! Give me all the college football and cider donuts and jeans and sweatshirts!! We live in midwest, so we are fortunate to get all four seasons. And Kansas City knows brings it for all of them! You can see our full Chalkboard Fall Bucket List here!
FALL PATIO
We recently did a little mini-makeover to our covered back patio space. We had a pea gravel patio installed and we got some new outdoor furniture. We LIVE out here! I love to have coffee in the morning and a drink at night. We watch TV out here, eat out here, and will be doing some entertaining out here this fall!
I decided to use traditional “fall” colors out here and I love it! I incorporated some mustard, plaid, cozy throws, and a leather pillow. I love texture all throughout the year, but especially when the weather gets chillier. And I always love black/white.
I always have terra cotta pots out here, which instantly adds warmth and texture. And give me all the plants! I’m a #plantlady! And these Bosten ferns are still going strong too! You can find a drop cloth curtain tutorial here!
FALL PORCH
We have a very beige house, so I decided to liven it up with a little color. I found these pretty pots with yellow and purple and thought they would be a good punch against the black door.
My Kimberly Queen ferns have been going strong since May! They are the gift that keeps on giving! I love ferns incorporated into fall decor. I love the whimsy and the greenery of a fern. The large terra cotta pot was a recent find and I’m in LOVE!
I also picked up a new front door mat and rug for fall/winter. Let’s Stay In! We really do love to go and do and travel, but we also very much love to stay home and snuggle up as a family!
I made this DIY fall modern wreath last year and it’s a favorite of mine.
I love, love, love having a large front porch! Porch rocking out here is the best!
I managed to find a few pumpkins! I know it’s early, but I will be adding several more pumpkins as the weeks go on!
Layering mums and different sized pots, and adding some height on one side makes the space feel cozy and inviting!
I hope you enjoyed getting a peak into our outdoor spaces decorated for fall! There is nothing better than spending time outside in the fall!
Oh i love your home. Your patio is a favorite. That is definitely where you would find me living all the time. I don't remember your front porch or seeing the front of your home. It is gorgeous and that front porch makes me green with envy. All we have is a stoop, so having such a great porch and rockers makes me drool. Your ferns are amazing, they really do look fabulous mixed with fall mums and pumpkins. Thanks so much for joining the tour, your home is always so inviting and welcoming.
I just love all of your black and white, lady! It's totally how I love to decorate! Beautiful fall tour!
Not sure where my post went. I love your patio and backyard. Such a fabulous place to relax, watch TV and entertain. I think I would just live there. I don't remember seeing the front of your home, it is really beautiful and that gorgeous front porch is a dream. I love a nice big porch. Thanks so much for joining the tours, your home is truly a delight.
Obsessed with your patio. It's giving me all the right fall feels. Thanks for the pretty tour.
You have created absolutely stunning fall outdoor spaces! I love all your use of color. Your plants are stunning! Now I can't wait to get started on my outdoor fall decor, thanks for the inspiration!
So happy to be joining you for the tours this week. Have a great fall!
