Cozy Decor, Spooky Open House Vibes & Fall Bucket List Fun

If fall had a personality, it’d be equal parts cozy candle, fresh-baked something, and a haunted hayride. This week? We’re channeling all of it—with a fall bucket list, open house tips (with a seasonal twist), and a stunning home that’s ready for sweater season.

The Ultimate Fall Bucket List (Yes, You Can Actually Do These)
Sip cider while watching a sunset
Visit a pumpkin patch or haunted farm
Bake something with cinnamon in it (don’t fight it)
Host a backyard fire with blankets & s’mores
Swap out your throw pillows for something textured
Walk your favorite trail while the leaves crunch beneath your boots

Bonus points if you check one off every weekend this month. 

Hosting a Spooky (but Stylish) Open House or Gathering? Try This:
Use mini pumpkins for place settings or staging accents
Add cinnamon or clove-scented candles for instant cozy
Keep Halloween décor subtle & chic—think black taper candles or matte ceramic skulls
Offer cider + fall cookies = guests linger longer (aka: good open house energy)

You don’t have to go full haunted mansion—just a little witchy wow will do. 

Cozy Fall Décor: Small Swaps, Big Impact
Add a knit throw to your living room
Put a bowl of apples or pinecones on the counter
Warm up lighting with amber-toned bulbs or lamps

It’s not about going full Hobby Lobby—it’s about creating a vibe. And that vibe is candlelit, cinnamon-scented peace.
