Fall is right around the corner!

Fall decorating and party planning can be simple and inexpensive. I encourage you to look around for ideas and experiment. My decorating skills are limited, so I shamelessly hack sites such as “Halloween & Fall Finds” on Totally Promotional’s Pinterest page.

Easy indoor fall party decorating

Got a few minutes? Then you’ve got time to create this easy-to-make centerpiece:

Place a candle on top of acorns in the bottom of a large wooden bowl or other rustic containers. Cover it with a hurricane vase, surround it with pine cones and mini pumpkins … and presto! A beautiful fall creation.

Let’s talk fall porch ideas

Mums and cornstalks seem to take center stage on porches everywhere this time of year. Accent bigger items such as straw bales or crates with randomly arranged silk flowers, scarecrows and colorful leaves.

It doesn’t take a lot of time to stuff containers until they overflow with pumpkins and gourds or even items from your own backyard like small twigs and leaves. Colorful or antique-looking tables can display more of your fall favorites. Pumpkins of all sizes, real or fake, make great fill-ins.

Warning: Don’t overdo it. You wouldn’t want your postal carrier or visitors to trip on the way to your door!

It’s time for fall-themed parties

My love for everything pumpkin is matched only by the rich aroma of cinnamon and nutmeg. Who needs to burn a scented candle when a scrumptious apple crisp is baking in the oven?

Fall Food Pumpkin Pecan Cobbler

One of the desserts I plan to try soon is Pumpkin Pecan Cobbler; the recipe can be found at Lauren’s Latest. I can almost taste the warm, crunchy cobbler with vanilla ice cream melting through it. Yum!

The Internet has millions of recipes for autumn-themed snacks and drinks. (64,300,000 on Google, to be exact) Some that caught my eye are Pumpkin Pie Cheesecake Dip (served in a hollowed-out pumpkin, of course), Oreo Acorns and  Apple Cider Floats.

Fall Food bean and bacon soup

For your main dish, I suggest taking the chill off the day by serving a variety of hearty soups! Browse through The 50 Most Delicious Fall Soups at House Beautiful to warm up your party guests.
