Autumn Blue and White
Good Morning Everyone,
My branding project is still underway. I have been slowing changing and playing around with my new logo and other new branding tools that my brand manager has sent me. It has been truly inspiring seeing my vision for a more elegant logo and signage for my blog and boutique come to pass. I am hoping that this is a sign of things to come.
I had a lot of fun creating a reel for the boutique’s new arrival. My husband helped me with filming. I want to create more reels but they are a lot of work! Especially if you have a certain vision in mind and don’t want to mimic with other people are doing which can be very hard because there are so many creative people online.
We are now in the full swing of the autumn season, and I have found myself a little too busy to decorate! Well, I will be honest the items that I really want are far too expensive. I follow Belle Omniley on Instagram and find her holiday style so inspiring! She recently posted the photo below and I knew that this would be the inspiration for my porch!

Oh my goodness! Do we see the color palette? Do we see the blue and white ginger jars? Oh my goodness! As soon I saw the ginger jars I wanted to pull mine out and place them on the porch immediately! It’s just gorgeous!
So happy that she shared an up-close photo. I have this photo saved in my phone. I have already purchased 3 huge mums but they died already! I am seriously considering getting some faux mums! I found these faux green topiary balls on Amazon and I think that they would look great in my blue and white planters. They look really similar to her green mums in this photo.

I did find these beautiful blue and white pumpkins at the At Home store last year at the end of the autumn season. I don’t think that they are available anymore, but I have these placed in our family room.
I pulled my fabric blue and white pumpkins out this year. I love these and they were such a good find! Of course, they are from the At Home Store, but they are no longer available. You can see my skeleton Frank who is sitting in his chair for this Halloween season.

I did purchase a new magnolia wreath for my porch. It looks beautiful! If I am able to find some new mums or purchase some faux topiary I will be sure to share a new photo! Happy Autumn!

I actually bought the same fall wreath that Belle Omniley has on her front door. What a coincidence. It is pretty! That’s so nice your husband assisted with the reel. It looks great!

Oh that is so funny! I think good taste transfers to all of us! I bet your wreaths look great!
Hi Mrs.Shockley,
First, you look so beautiful in that reel. I am excited to see more of your branding. You and JLS have some exciting things happening. I’ll bet hers is as Writer in Residence for Victoria Magazine. Lastly, as always, I love your decor. I just love everything-Autumn, Christmas. Your creativity is inspiring. I too am moving towards more sophisticated decor. It’s a bit challenging with a 7 year old that loves all the kiddie stuff. So I add it in where I can. Take care

Oh thank you Mya! This branding journey has been so scary! I have no idea what I am doing but I do love the company that I am working with. Jennifer has some news? I did not know this!
Finding new autumn decor has been a challenge to me this year because everything that I want is so expensive!
That is the perfect plan when decorating with small children. Add it where you can. Small victories!
I’m loving the pastel pumpkins and the blue ginger jars. It’s very tasteful and pleasing to the eye. Sorry the mums didn’t make it. Don’t forget to look at Frontgate for elevated home decor ideas. Quality unmatched, yes a bit spendy but you get what you pay for😁🍁🍂
Me too! It looks so classic. I love Frontgate and they are the main store that I want to buy from! Lord it’s expensive.
