farmhouse style magazine for fall




Have you picked up the Autumn issue of Farmhouse Style yet? 🍁🍂

 

If you’re ready to infuse your home with the warmth and vibrancy of the season, you’ll find plenty of inspiration within these pages—from cozy floral arrangements and creative tablescapes to simple ways to add autumnal flair to every corner of your space.

 

Whether you’re hosting a dinner or simply brightening your space for the season, this fun project is sure to inspire creativity and elevate your fall home décor.


Here are a few of my projects...

 




I've added a touch of pumpkin orange by transforming real mini pumpkins into glowing candle centerpieces for my breakfast room. Simply place a tea light inside each pumpkin and set them atop tall wooden candlesticks.

 




This straightforward idea brings a perfect dose of autumn charm to the breakfast room. For a full look at this project and many others, turn to page 87 in the fall edition of Country Sampler Farmhouse Style magazine.

 




Learn how to give a simple white pumpkin a chic makeover with polka dots! Today I’m sharing a few details in the Autumn issue of Country Sampler Farmhouse Style.

 

This easy DIY adds a playful yet elegant touch to your fall décor, making it perfect for both festive centerpieces and cozy corners. By using just a few supplies—like white chalk paint and a small brush and adhesive copper dots—you can transform an ordinary pumpkin into a standout accent that complements your favorite seasonal florals and arrangements.

 




Pair your polka-dot pumpkin with lush bouquets or tuck it among a grouping on your mantel for a fresh, modern twist on classic autumn styling.

 




An easy basket makeover with ivy and a French twist adds a touch of effortless elegance to your fall décor, infusing ordinary arrangements with a hint of European charm.

 




Pairing lush greenery with classic colors creates a beautiful contrast, perfect for any festive gathering or a cozy corner in your home. This basket project easily adds creativity and style to your autumn or winter décor.

 




This antique quilt, which has been passed down through my family, instantly adds charm to the toile wing chair.

  



 

Incorporating items with sentimental value like this quilt brings warmth and personality into your décor, letting your home's story shine in every room as the seasons change.





For a creative twist, consider using a stack of vintage books planted with succulents as an unexpected centerpiece for any side table. This blend of nostalgic charm and lush greenery offers a conversation starter and enhances the cozy atmosphere of your home décor.


Here is some more fabulous fall inspiration from this issue...

 

 



All so cozy and warm for fall! 






If you want to add some autumn flair to your home, you'll find plenty of ideas in this issue!

a garden foraged Thanksgiving bouquet

 



It’s all about Thanksgiving today, as my friends and I give you unique glimpses into our homes and share how we’ve set our Thanksgiving tables this year!





For my table, my inspiration started with this floral arrangement I made using all foraged flowers and greenery from my garden. It’s mostly a cozy mix of muted hydrangeas and zinnias that I had still blooming in my yard.


Watch how it all came together HERE, in my Instagram garden stories.

 




From there, I let the colors of these flowers dictate the rest of the table. I know I wanted lots of candlelight.


 


Of course, a Thanksgiving table wouldn’t be complete without the representation of a pretty turkey. 

 




Black bamboo flatware offers a little rustic hint at each place setting where I've used vintage cream Wedgwood "Patrician" plates, amber colored glassware to complete the look.

 




With Thanksgiving just around the corner, and I want to hear what your favorite part of the meal is... especially your favorite side dish or dessert that you like to prepare, or just eat!!

 




Let me know if you have any special recipes that you can't live without on Turkey Day!! 🦃






In case you haven’t heard, I started a new Instagram page in October and named it Claudia Fabiana Home. 


My former page is still up, but after getting a new phone, I was no longer able to log into this account, so the new profile was born!

 




I hope you’ll follow along with me on Instagram for all the latest projects and décor I will be sharing in 2025.

“Fall colors on repeat!” Aren’t you just loving the soothing muted tones this season? 🍁🍂


My November table in the breakfast room features some of my favorites old and new… 


My goal was to create a tablescape that captures the essence of fall’s natural beauty!


Can you spot the Pinecone Napkin Rings and the Cheese Board? They’re from Arthur Court and the plates, charger and wicker vase are from new little items I just acquired from Antique Farmhouse.

 

 



Just sharing a few beautiful new things for Thanksgiving from Arthur Court like these fun turkey place card holders and a beautiful metal turkey bowl that would be great for a green salad or a yummy side dish.


A little spring or two of rosemary help infuse the room with a delectable holiday fragrance and also comes in handy when cooking the turkey.

 

I also sprinkled in a few of my new vintage treasures found this week at a secondhand store. All my friends know how much I've always loved Thanksgiving, so I'm really looking forward to this year when I can really accessorize my table with style!

 




This is a Thanksgiving table I put together using only second-hand items that I either thrifted or inherited. I made a table runner out of colorful collected autumn leaves from a liquidambar tree.

   




Another shot of this vintage inspired table. I just love the hand-tied fringe on this antique tablecloth!


One of my favorite things to collect are brass candlesticks of all shapes and sizes. You can never have too many, and they look great when grouped "en masse" as a lovely collection. 

   



To keep things neutral, I’m using these large white ceramic chargers as dishes. I find that they hold just the right amount of food for a large meal like Thanksgiving. 


Layered on top is a variety of brown transferware salad plates that I collect all year long. Some of my favorites have a lovely Tom turkey on them. 


I think it's fun to mix and match certain elements, and at this table, I do that with the salad plates, napkin rings and the vintage glassware.





Up until this year I’d never heard of Thanksgiving Poinsettias, but I’ve come to learn that it’s a thing, and I just love how they bring that indescribable autumn feeling to the table.


Tablecloth and napkins: August Table  

 





This Thanksgiving table was ultra-simplified. I first brought out these beautiful ivory Wedgwood plates. They’re a sentimental nod to our dear family, and we don’t need much more than that. 


For me it’s all about spending quality time with our loved ones, and not going so overboard with superfluous details.
