I almost didn’t post this. After sharing all of ou I almost didn’t post this. After sharing all of our beach vacation content last week, it probably looked like we had the perfect trip. Smiles, sunsets, seafood, beach days, and we truly did make some amazing memories.
But social media rarely shows everything. What you didn’t see was my heart pounding every time I carried my beach bag down to the sand. Feeling so dizzy and nauseous that I had to run back to the condo just to throw up. Watching my heart rate skyrocket and my Apple Watch constantly sending high heart rate notifications, even while I was just sitting at dinner or relaxing on the couch. Imagine how high it gets when I’m actually doing something. You didn’t see my hands shaking so badly that putting on my makeup became a challenge.
Or the hours spent on the phone with doctors, insurance companies, and specialists trying to get referrals approved, MRIs scheduled, and answers that still haven’t come. After weeks of waiting, I finally got my brain, spine, and lower back MRIs scheduled, but they’re not until August 18. So now comes even more waiting and hoping for answers. 🙃
You didn’t see me checking my suitcase over and over, terrified I’d forget an important medication or something I might need while we were away.
And when we finally made it home? I ended up with what seemed like an allergic reaction, my right eye swelled shut, burned, and watered nonstop, my nose couldn’t decide if it wanted to be stuffed up or run like a faucet, and I topped it all off with a pounding migraine. This is the reality of living with an invisible illness.
You learn how to smile through the symptoms. You push through when you can. You rest when you have to. And you become really good at making things look “normal” even when your body is fighting you every step of the way. So if you’ve ever looked at someone’s vacation photos and thought they must have it all together, this is your reminder that you never know what someone is carrying behind the scenes.
And to my sweet hubby, thank you for giving me grace, slowing down when I need to, carrying the things I can’t, and reminding me that making memories together is what matters most ♥️
Remember those viral Pottery Barn-inspired jack-o’ Remember those viral Pottery Barn-inspired jack-o’-lanterns everyone wanted a few Halloweens ago? 🎃 I couldn’t justify the price, so I made my own… and they’ve been my favorite DIY Halloween decorations ever since!

Vacations are wonderful, but there’s just something special about walking back through your own front door. 🏡✨

I also find it trapped under beds, cabinets, and furniture more often than I find it actually cleaning the house. At this point, I spend more time searching for my robot vacuum than I would if I just grabbed the regular vacuum myself. 😂

I know robot vacuums are supposed to make cleaning easier, but sometimes they create their own little adventures instead. Please tell me I’m not the only one! Does your robot vacuum have a mind of its own too, or is mine just extra dramatic? 🤣

I know I’m probably rushing the seasons a little, but if you’re a fellow cozy season lover, you get it. 😂

How to Style a Fall Entryway Table

You know I am all about creating cozy, seasonal spaces in my home. And fall is my second favorite season to decorate for. Besides Christmas of course! I like to do easy, simple upgrades to pieces I already have. So I thought I would share with y’all today how to style a fall entryway table.

This is the first piece you see when you walk into our home, so I want it to make a great statement without it being too overwhelming.

Fall Entryway Table
I’m loving how it turned out this season!

This post contains affiliate links. Click here to read my disclosure policy.

Start With a Centerpiece

It can be a little overwhelming to style a table this large. That’s why I recommend starting in the center and working your way out.

I wanted a beautiful fall centerpiece to use here and I decided that my dough bowl would be just perfect. If you remember, I used to have this dough bowl on one of my previous fall tablescapes.

But I have yet again changed up my fall dining tablescape this year (more to come on that later). So I have moved the dough bowl to another home!

Centerpiece on Fall Entryway Table
Here is my blank entryway table with the dough bowl ready to be styled!

I love dough bowls to use as centerpieces because they are so easy to change out from season to season. Use some pumpkins for fall and then some ornaments for Christmas!

All without having to change the entire set up of your entryway table. For my fall entryway table this year, I filled my dough bowl up with lightly colored peach, sage, and white pumpkins.

I also painted some pumpkins a few years ago to continue on with this color scheme so I have been re-using them ever since. It was a super easy and cost effective project to do since I can easily use them year after year!

Dough Bowl with pumpkins
Look at all those pretty pumpkins!

Place in Some Pillows and Throws

I always have baskets, crocks, crates, etc. on my entryway table. And I usually fill them with some decorative pillows and throws. Not only is it pretty, but it is also functional as well.

That way you have a stylish place to store all those pillows and throws instead of having them strewn all over the living room. It also makes it super cozy by adding in all the textures and colors from the fabric as well.

Baskets with Pillows on Entryway Table

I also love how large of a space the crates and baskets take up on the entryway table. I found that cute fall crate from TJ Maxx a few years ago and I normally use it on my porch.

But this year I thought I would change it up and use it on my fall entryway table instead. It’s the perfect size to place a pillow in!

Add in Some Decorative Elements

The next step on my fall entryway table is using my farmhouse style riser. I usually keep this on my entryway table. I also normally keep a cloche on that riser and I changed it up by putting some other pumpkins I painted inside of it as well.

For everyday decor, I normally just place some vintage books and greenery inside of it. Then, I had to add in one of my favorite candles from Antique Candle Co! Not only do they smell so good, but they are very decorative as well!

Riser on Entryway Table
Here you can see the pumpkins in the cloche and my favorite candle on the riser!

The next thing I did to style my fall entryway table was to add in some decorative elements on each side of the dough bowl. I have a cute wooden lantern that is again easy to change up from season to season.

I placed it the left side of the dough bowl and just stuck a decorate pumpkin with greenery inside. Easy peesy!

Lantern on Entryway Table
Look at that cute wooden lantern with the pumpkin in it!

Finishing Touches

I thought I needed something else on the bottom to balance everything out. I found a cute, handmade pumpkin from old burlap bags at a local antique store last year.

And I decided it was the perfect finishing touch. It goes well with all the other cozy textures from the pillows and the blanket.

Finishing Touches on Fall Entryway Table
Ta-Da! Here is the finished product!

I hope you enjoyed this easy breakdown on how to style a fall entryway table in your home. Do you have an entryway table or bench that you like to style seasonally too?

If so, what are some of your favorite pieces to style it with? Let me know below! I would love to hear it!

For a more casual beachfront dinner, @bummzbeachcafe is another one of our go-to spots. Great food, ocean views, and the perfect laid-back beach vibes.

If you’re planning a Myrtle Beach vacation and wondering where to eat in Myrtle Beach, I’ve put together my full list of favorite restaurants and hidden gems!

I almost didn’t post this. After sharing all of ou I almost didn’t post this. After sharing all of our beach vacation content last week, it probably looked like we had the perfect trip. Smiles, sunsets, seafood, beach days, and we truly did make some amazing memories.
But social media rarely shows everything. What you didn’t see was my heart pounding every time I carried my beach bag down to the sand. Feeling so dizzy and nauseous that I had to run back to the condo just to throw up. Watching my heart rate skyrocket and my Apple Watch constantly sending high heart rate notifications, even while I was just sitting at dinner or relaxing on the couch. Imagine how high it gets when I’m actually doing something. You didn’t see my hands shaking so badly that putting on my makeup became a challenge.
Or the hours spent on the phone with doctors, insurance companies, and specialists trying to get referrals approved, MRIs scheduled, and answers that still haven’t come. After weeks of waiting, I finally got my brain, spine, and lower back MRIs scheduled, but they’re not until August 18. So now comes even more waiting and hoping for answers. 🙃
You didn’t see me checking my suitcase over and over, terrified I’d forget an important medication or something I might need while we were away.
And when we finally made it home? I ended up with what seemed like an allergic reaction, my right eye swelled shut, burned, and watered nonstop, my nose couldn’t decide if it wanted to be stuffed up or run like a faucet, and I topped it all off with a pounding migraine. This is the reality of living with an invisible illness.
You learn how to smile through the symptoms. You push through when you can. You rest when you have to. And you become really good at making things look “normal” even when your body is fighting you every step of the way. So if you’ve ever looked at someone’s vacation photos and thought they must have it all together, this is your reminder that you never know what someone is carrying behind the scenes.
And to my sweet hubby, thank you for giving me grace, slowing down when I need to, carrying the things I can’t, and reminding me that making memories together is what matters most ♥️
Remember those viral Pottery Barn-inspired jack-o’ Remember those viral Pottery Barn-inspired jack-o’-lanterns everyone wanted a few Halloweens ago? 🎃 I couldn’t justify the price, so I made my own… and they’ve been my favorite DIY Halloween decorations ever since!

Leaving the beach is always the hardest part of an Leaving the beach is always the hardest part of any beach vacation. As much as I’ve loved every minute of soaking up the sun, watching the waves, and making memories, I’m officially ready to head home.

Mostly because I can’t wait to see my little fur babies! 🐈💕 I’m counting down the minutes until I can cuddle them on the couch and unwind after an amazing week away.

Vacations are wonderful, but there’s just something special about walking back through your own front door. 🏡✨

So tell me… are you the type who wishes vacation could last forever, or do you always end up a little homesick and ready to get back home?

There’s just something about the warm glow of cand There’s just something about the warm glow of candlelight, a cool autumn breeze, and relaxing on the porch with a mug of hot apple cider that makes my heart so happy. Fall is hands-down my favorite season, and I am so ready for all the cozy fall vibes.

This summer has been so hot, humid, and rainy that it feels like every weekend gets rained out. 😂 So if anyone’s ready for crisp air, sweaters, fall porch decor, pumpkin candles, and peaceful evenings outside… it’s me!

Who’s already counting down the days until autumn arrives? 🍁 Tell me your favorite thing about fall in the comments! 👇🏻

Is anyone else’s robot vacuum constantly getting l Is anyone else’s robot vacuum constantly getting lost or dying in the most random places? 😂 Mine literally only had to move TWO more feet to reach its charging dock, but instead it just gave up. Like… buddy, you were so close! 🤣

I also find it trapped under beds, cabinets, and furniture more often than I find it actually cleaning the house. At this point, I spend more time searching for my robot vacuum than I would if I just grabbed the regular vacuum myself. 😂

I know robot vacuums are supposed to make cleaning easier, but sometimes they create their own little adventures instead. Please tell me I’m not the only one! Does your robot vacuum have a mind of its own too, or is mine just extra dramatic? 🤣
