Any fellow "fallophiles" here?

Self-proclaimed "fallophile" here! Autumn is my favorite season! I traditionally switch my decor on Labor Day weekend. The last 20 years I lived in Los Angeles, where autumn is pretty much non-existent. Now I'm in the mountains of NC and can hardly wait for the leaves to start changing. My decor is always simple, but I started this week. Please show photos of your home as you decorate. It really makes my heart happy to see them.

How lovely and welcoming!

I especially like the beautiful plaque.

@house_cat,

I love your porch, your rockers like every porch should have! and the simple lovely decorations.

I agree with @ECBG -so welcoming!

I don't normally post pictures or I would. I changed all my decor over too and am loving it. Fall is my favorite season and I just cannot wait to feel that ****** in the air and for it to get chilly enough for the fireplace. Northeast is beautiful this time of year.

Your porch is lovely, @house_cat .

I would most certainly share photos, but my iPhone is now a different format than what this site allows and it would take a new platform to be able to upload to this site.

Jpeg is getting passed by for better clarity and resolution. Like Adobe. Not used as much anymore, or at least not exclusively.

We'll see what happens. I'm not willing to add stuff to my computer to be able to share. It's going to be up to web site developers to merge technologies, and I don't see QVC doing that anytime soon.

Anyway, enjoy the falling leaves! I hope you can reach your gutters easily!

@house_cat, Thank you for sharing your lovely fall porch. How I love those rockers and the sign, as well.

A while back, I had thought of sharing pictures of my Early American decorating. I had thought it would be interesting for folks to see my wall stenciling, antiques, etc. more often seen in some New England homes.

I have only shown something once. One and done.

I really appreciate those who share pictures of a real home, not pictures clipped from decorating magazines or books meant for those with boundless budgets.

@house_cat

You did a lovely job decorating. It's so welcoming & festive, even your door. Your family & friends could sit on those rockers & enjoy nature at its best.

Thanks for sharing.

Really adorable!

Here in Northern MI, anything that's not plastic can become a tasty snack for the local wildlife. 😊

@house_cat Love your decor and your Red Door! So pretty! I haven't changed over to Fall Decor yet, but will post when I do within the next two weeks!

Fall is my favorite season too. Especially in regard to clothes. They are also among my favorite weights and colors. That is where I Fall "decorate" - myself.

The only actual fall decorating I do is changing to my Autumn wreath and adding mums to my garden. The asters also start blooming the Fall. Beautiful color in the garden with the addition of the mums and blooming asters. The blanket flowers which are orange are also still in full bloom and the yellow and white daisies and and fall pink coneflowers so I have alot of autumn color in the flowers and the autumn clametis covering the fence

@Sweetbay magnolia When I want to add something to QVC or somewhere that only takes .jpegs now, I send the photo to my email. It goes to my email as a .jpeg, and from there I add it to Photos. Then I upload it to QVC or wherever I want it to go. It sounds like a lot more trouble than it actually is.

Edited to say: I see you figured out how to do it before I posted!

@house_cat Your porch is lovely! I love the red door and rockers.

It is nice to experience seasons, but fall is my favorite too. Hope you love your new location.

@NickNack

Thanks to everyone who commented. I loved SweetBay's photos and I'm looking forward to more sharing as the season progresses. As someone mentioned earlier, it's nice to see our real life homes, rather than magazine photos exclusively.

When I take photos on DH's iPhone they are often too big to post. I either email them to myself as smaller files or AirDrop them to my laptop, then screen shot them. The one I posted was a screen shot.
