Back to a traditional fall color scheme this year! It wasn’t what I had in mind when I headed out on my mum hunt, but our local Home Depot and Lowe’s didn’t have the color selection I needed to execute my original vision. Oh well… maybe next year!

While there, I posted a few Instagram stories of the space and received some questions. Then I remembered I hadn’t shared this room on the blog yet. Today (well, tonight as I’m writing) I’m correcting that!
