Welcome, Friends,
It's Fall in Texas, Y'all!
Welcome to day four of the
Fall In Love With Texas Blog Tour.
I hope you've been visiting my Texas
girlfriends this week as they have each shared their special
take on celebrating the fall season here in Texas.
Autumn is my favorite season in Texas ~
the gentle change in the landscape,
the gentle change in the landscape,
the nip in the air, and the abundance of russet colors ~
each fills my senses and my heart.
each fills my senses and my heart.
Here in Texas we don't see the dramatic
change of autumn leaf color,
but we do have plenty of burnt orange in our autumn days.
We live in Longhorn Country!
Literally!
Austin is home to the University of Texas @ Austin,
where UT football is a favored sport, and fans
are not shy about celebrating burnt orange.
Both the chef and I are UT graduates,
but neither are avid sports fans.
We do however like to celebrate the burt orange
of autumn here at Hyacinths for the Soul.

Sarah, this is just what I needed with my cup of coffee this morning. I feel like such a slacker as I am still enjoying our idyllic "summer" here. I will start decorating for fall once we return from my niece's bachlorette party this weekend at the Finger Lakes wineries. The foliage should be nice and it will inspire me to decorate. Your home looks so inviting, and I just love that pumpkin dish. Thanks for the wonderful tour. xo
ReplyDeleteSarah, I love how you celebrate fall in Texas. Your luncheon table is gorgeous as are your Harvest plates. I sure hope we need those throws soon!
ReplyDeleteYour velvet pillows are just gorgeous. You saved a lot of pumpkin stems. I love the needlepoint pumpkins too. They are precious. Thanks for sharing your beautiful tablescapes. It all looks fabulous.
ReplyDeleteOoh Sarah, I loved seeing the outdoors around Austin, and then touring through your lovely home. The red clay pottery, your dishes, velvet and needlepoint pumpkins, and all the rest of your decor just says Fall in the most beautiful way. You have such a special style of decorating to make your home as cozy as can be. Thanks for sharing your home with us.
ReplyDeleteI think someone loves fall♥
ReplyDeleteYour collections are so precious.
I am with Debbie..it's so summer here..albeit the leaves are changing..
Love all those velvet pumpkins but the needlepoint ones are the best. What a neat idea and that tea pot with quail well that's a perfect touch. Beautiful home, thanks for sharing.

You have truly captured the Fall in our lovely State, you even treated us to a little woodsy Fall color, that I love so much!
ReplyDeleteI could almost smell the Autumn fragrance and I enjoyed the tender details of your vignettes, colors, throws and dishware.
Lovely, lovely!
Happy Fall!

I could happily spend all day on this blog post. I love your needlepoint pumpkins, red ware, brass and copper, tartan throws and let's not overlook the Longhorn! Everything is beautiful Sarah and I am so pleased and proud to call you my friend.
ReplyDeleteBig Texas Hugs,

Sarah, it's all so beautiful! Can you tell me where you got the floral bowl (orange and green) that is holding velvet pumpkins? It's gorgeous! You have pulled out all of the stops! Well Done! Thank you for sharing your talent with us! Happy Fall Day to you! Toodles, Kathryn @TheDedicatedHouse
ReplyDeleteWhat a wonderful tribute to our beautiful state of Texas....love Fall in your part of Texas. Great job on this post.
ReplyDeleteSarah,
ReplyDeleteYou have shared burnt orange in so many places and styles that I have overlooked. Seeing your collections is a wonderful stroll through your burnt orange, your home, and our state. I enjoyed this post so much.

I love all of your fall colors and arrangements. The roses are gorgeous!!
ReplyDeleteOh Sarah, I can't decide which of your home displays I love the most, but those basket of throws, the Juliska tablescape, and those needlepoint pumpkins all have me bowled over! The best of your pumpkins on the porch is your little 4-legged punkin!
ReplyDeleteXO,
Rita
Sarah, so much to love about Texas! I also live in a state where we see only subtle changes from summer to autumn. Still warm days but cooler nights. Your landscape is lovely there and I imagine your gardens are gorgeous. Beautiful colors of fall inside with all of your pumpkins and vignettes. I love the color of the Harvest plates and I'm sure those pies are as good as they look. Happy Fall Sarah..............
ReplyDeleteYour needlepoint pumpkins are so wonderful! I have never seen anything like them. I also LOVE your harvest plates! They are beautiful!
ReplyDeletefrom Fern Creek Cottage :)
DeleteSarah, I'm really enjoying visiting my Texas sisters. My autumn is more maroon than burnt orange, lol. Ha, I really love the colors of autumn - even orange! 😉 I think you nailed it...warm soup, hot tea, coziness all around. I love it when it's cool enough to have an fire going in the fire pit. Ahhh, Fall! My favorite season of all! Love your pretty pumpkins of all kinds!
ReplyDeleteYou have so many beautiful fall touches throughout your home! I love our cozy plaid throws and your toile dishes are beautiful! So happy to be touring with you this week!
ReplyDeleteWhat a delightful array of autumn themed items...soooo colorful!! I think I must love October the best out of all the months.
ReplyDeleteThis was such a pleasure to visit your blog today.
Fall in Texas never looked so good as it does in your home Sarah! Plaid throws, beautiful dishes and piles of pumpkins! I am SWOONING over those needlepoint pumpkins! I have a floral needlepoint pillow cover sitting in a closet passed down to me from my grandmother. I wonder if I have courage to repurpose it into a couple of pumpkins? Happy October to you. ♥
ReplyDeleteFall looks wonderful in your Texas home!
ReplyDeleteYou post is a feast for the eyes! I plan to look through all these houses this weekend because I haven't had time this week. They will all still be up, I hope? Your photo collages look fantastic, BTW.
ReplyDeleteSarah, so much eye candy to admire and take in. Your home is lovely. Everywhere you look, I see beautiful vignettes and a lovely touch of Fall. The basketry of woolen throws is so perfect. Loving your fall table. The Juliska plates are gorgeous. I do love your black and white MC. Truly a pleasure to tour your beautiful home.
ReplyDeleteLove all your Texas Fall! I do a little orange and amber with pumpkins,pottery and glass.

Dearest Sara,
ReplyDeleteLovely post with very nice fall colors.
My favorite photo is the one where you display your roses in such an incredible way!
Enjoy this very special time and yes, my Italian wool throw might get used in a couple of weeks...
Hate to say goodbye to sandals and shorts!
Hugs,
Mariette
I love all your Fall accessories but I've never seen needlepoint pumpkins before. I'm really wanting some. So unique.
ReplyDeleteA great post, Sarah! The Redware is new to me and I love it. The needlepoint pumpkins are also interesting...passed down? Made by yourself? So original and beautiful!
ReplyDeleteEnjoy your cool weather. I know you Texans truly appreciate it. :-D

Happy Pink Saturday, Sarah. Thank you for always making Pink Saturday special.
ReplyDeleteYour home looks lovely. Those needlepoint pumpkins make my heart go pitter-pat. Redware pottery is always very popular here in North Carolina.
Enjoy your Autumn. It is my husband's favorite season of all. We are definitely enjoying the cooler days and nights. Very little color change here, but it is still a bit early for us.
Love everything, especially your unusual pumpkins. Such a FALL FEAST and awesome eye candy

Sarah, you certainly have a beautiful fall in Texas and your pictures are just gorgeous. Love all your handmade pumpkins, and those heirloom hand stitched ones are so special. Do you save all your stems from the real ones you use or is there a place where one could order them? I have looked but have had no luck so far..Happy Fall..Judy
ReplyDeleteOh I LOVE this post! Puts me right in the fall mood! I have those lovely Juliska plates, aren't they perfect for Fall???
ReplyDeleteGreat post! Love your velvet pumpkins ( I am keeping 'real" pumpkin stems and plan to make some next year. Also love the stitched ones! I also spied some Pandora Checks :-) You certainly have lots of lovely decorations! Enjoy the fall!
ReplyDeleteSarah, I love your burnt oranges. Those needlepoint pumpkins are fabulous!! Did you make them? Your dishes are so pretty and I adore your assorted real and velvet pumpkins as well! Thanks for sharing with SYC.

Glad to see fall has arrived in Texas and that you have gotten your fall decor out for the Texas bloggers party. Lots of cute pieces, Sarah.
ReplyDeleteHappiest Fall,Sarah....I love your tour and those blankets caught my eye....it's turned a little cooler here this week but think it's supposed to warm up again on Sat. Tech is playing a game and everyone is hoping it's going to be nice weather...
ReplyDeleteEverything is so beautiful, Sarah! I love burnt orange. I think it is both happy and warm. ..Christine
ReplyDeleteAll so pretty Sarah!
ReplyDeleteThanks so much for sharing at AMAZE ME MONDAY!
Blessings,

My goodness, Sarah, your fall decorations are pretty. I especially like your collection of velvet pumpkins and amazing heirloom needlepoint pumpkins. The needlepoint ones are the first I have seen. Amazing!
ReplyDeleteI thought of you and your McKensie Child pieces when I saw a fabulous display in Harrods last week. I snapped a pic and hope to share on my blog soon.
Sarah, your fall decor is so lovely and I especially love your gorgeous table settings! Thank you for sharing @Vintage Charm. Pinned!
ReplyDeleteI love all of your pumpkins, but am absolutely swooning over those pumpkins with the crows. Happy fall!
ReplyDeleteWhat a great collection of fall images! Those needlepoint pumpkins are the most unique I've ever seen! Love the dough bowl with the real pumpkins and bittersweet.
ReplyDeleteLooks like you are all set for fall. Who needs the cold!!! Your faux pumpkins are beautiful, and so are you fabric ones. I do love fall. I love the change of food, and the change of the weather, but not the cold that follows!
ReplyDeleteI love it all, especially the needlepoint pumpkins! I've never seen those before, did you make them?
ReplyDeleteKaree
You have a big array of orange colored decorating items that are very pretty, and you are set for Thanksgiving. I like the faux pumpkins with the crows in your garden, and that orange Longhorn.
