Nature Inspired

This is the best time of year to be inspired by nature for our well being as well as design.



Our family loves to take walks in the woods and spend time playing outside; especially if our little nature girl can collect leaves, rocks, acorns and pinecones. Throw in a spider or two and she couldn't be happier, that will explain her dressing up as a spider for Halloween.



Here are some of the things she collected on one of our hikes....


The colors and textures are so beautiful and always inspire me when I bring color into my home. How does autumn inspire you?

  1. At first, I thought you were going to tell me that was your backyard! :) I love your little nature girl- she picked quite the collection. Fresh decor is always the best. I bet is smells so good too.

  13. I think she takes after her mother...she has quite the eye! Everything is so beautiful and will go great together. Autumn always inspires me with it's crispness that makes me want to refresh my home and the need for warmth that makes me want to hold my family close. I hope you and the little spider have a wonderful Halloween :)

  15. This is my favorite time of the year. I love the Fall flowers in oranges and burgundy and the golden and red leaves on trees, the pine cones on the ground and the cool crisp air. There is nothing better than bundling up on a cool day and taking a long walk. It is very energizing. Your daughter did well on her hike bringing a nice little collection of nature back.
