Summer is officially over and we are very excited to be talking about fall decor!

Our best advice is to go natural and simple. We don't like the idea of spending a fortune of decor that you just use once. If you are going to buy something for the fall, invest in something worth keeping and using every year.

Be sure to check out Anita's Cedar Hill Farmhouse wallpaper collection on the Cedar Hill Farmhouse website HERE.
You can also go straight to the wallpaper site HERE and HERE.

Anita uses these fall dishes every year.

Are you a collector? Do you have a passion for dishes, or linens or something else? Let's talk about how to collect without becoming a hoarder. What are the do's and don'ts of collecting?
First, try to curate your collections so that you just have your favorite pieces, the best of the best. You don't need a hundred items to make it a curated collection. Next try to do a write up on the items for future generations. Why are you collecting the items? What is their importance to you or your family? Make a note of anything of a large monetary value so your family will know. If you suspect your collection is worth a lot of money, have it appraised, then consider securing a rider on your insurance policy for the items, so they will be covered in case of loss.
We also encourage people to display their items and if possible, use them. I collect dishes, and I try to use them often. Boxing things and putting them in the attic is not a good way to enjoy them.
