When you decorate your home for the new fall season, do you decorate for fall or do you decorate for Halloween? Or do you do both? I’ve always been a fall only decorator. Every year, I mostly decorate with real pumkins and pinky mums on my front porch but inside I decorate with lots of mini white pumpkins and some velvet pumpkins. One of these days, I need to up my fall decor game.

The reason that I usually lean towards fall only home decor, is because it’s a season that lasts longer. I absoultely LOVE Christmas time, but I am one of those people that doesn’t like to look over the Thanksgiving holiday. That said, I refuse to decorate for Christmas until after Thanksgiving. I put my fall decor up late September or early October, leave it up through Thanksgiving day, and then the day after Thanksgiving I throw all my pumpkins out. If you are wondering about Christmas, my husband and I go get a real tree the weekend after Thanksgiving and we put all out Christmas out then. Back to the topic at hand though.. When I say it last longer, I mean Halloween decor (in my opinion) should only be up the month of October (maybe less), but Fall can last you September through November.

This year though, I have seen SO many cute Halloween decor that I am truly debating on converting to mixing the two. Like no joke. I really want to decorate for Halloween this year. I feel like another reason I don’t usually decorate for Halloween is because I hate anything spooky or scary. Scary movies? Yeah, that’s an epic no for me. Getting off my Halloween & Fall horse and sharing my favorite holiday home decor finds!
