It's too early to say the F word. As a Canadian, I hate having the 3 months of decent weather interrupted by the F word. LOL, I will make an exception for you Ms. V.
I love my pumpkins…I have a collection of blown glass pumpkins and I use them everywhere..they look so elegant in their fall colors. So, yes, it’s a theme…but they are hand blown by artists and my favorite fall decor!
Fall without a real pumpkin inside (they come in all sorts of colors and shapes: orange, white) is like winter without evergreens, pine cones, etc. I love your video but I love the pumpkins too!
I have grandchildren 3 ,5.7.9 ywars old I think it would be sad for them if grandma dis mot decorate for fall tje only way they get exvoted about. I think its great for some to do no theme but children deserve grandma's to be themed. I love your channel but can't say this advice is for everyone.
I had to check when you posted this video, thought it might be an old one 😆. Even though I love it I don't want to think about 'Autumn' yet, I'm going to the beach tomorrow! 😃 x
A color palette DEFINITELY keeps you focused and concise. Not so much all over the place with design and color. “Diva-of-design”, I’m just as giddy as you are about autumn. My fav season and I sure hope it cools off. May you and your family have a wonderful upcoming autumn season. And thank you so much for your bright spirit, funny hubby moments, and amazing ideas. Thanks to your channel (new subscriber), my home has become even more a conversation piece of compliments galore with all of our family and guests recently visiting from time to time and it makes them want to make improvements with their home. In other words, you are beautifulfying homes all over. Outstanding!
It’s great to start thinking of transitioning… But not in July! We may have had too many days over 100° this summer in Arkansas but it’s just too early! 😳
I couldn’t finish this video. I like this channel a lot but sorry I don’t want to be sophisticated or at least I don’t want to give up all my fall decorations! Bring on the pumpkins!
I adore the cool crisp air. It's everything. I sleep better and feel 100% better. All the smells of the autumn season and watching nature change. I am a freak about hearing Canadian geese flying over head. I've been known to stop whatever I'm doing and run outside to watch them. I'm from Canada and are home sick in the fall the most. I absolutely adore fall.
I love fall but I don’t celebrate changing anything until like October 1. I drag my feet on this one. Hate that summer has left and it seems like forever before we get the warmth again. When you live where I do the seasons are very definite. I’m not ready to move snow yet but that sometimes happens in late October here. Mostly I hit my favorite nursery and pick up a combo planter in September with dark red grasses and kale and chrysanthemum placing near doorway. I have a huge wrought iron covered double door with rain glass and it’s very showy. Then I change out pillows, dining napkins, towels, sheets and add a few pumpkins. That says enough for me.

I love to incorporate aged copper and baskets into my kitchen and dining room. My favorite color palette is deep green and burnt orange, though I’ve been using a bit more muted version of the burnt orange. I’ve always been a beige and brown color palette lover, even through the grey stage everyone seemed to go through. I definitely favor the warmer side of the color wheel. 😊
We have hot weather in the Phoenix area until sometime in November, no Fall, no changing leaves, a short Winter, & then hot again. I had heard this before I moved here, & it is true.
I live in Palm Springs so the fall weather doesn’t start until November so I have to create it in my home. Love the fall scents to get the “party” started! I’ll try the pottery barn and anthro ones this year.
I am SO here for talk of Fall, precisely bc this summer has been blisteringly hot and miserable. It's actually unsafe to go outside!

Hi valentina omg your video opened my eyes. My name is wendy and I live in Belgium in europ. I get sometimes frustrated when I decorate for fall because as you know over here it is very difficult to find typical fall decor. But now you showed me that you can decorate for fall in a complete different way thank you so much for that!!!
I enjoyed your video but I think you are getting ahead of yourself. I love fall but when I walk outside and triple digests it hard to think about fall.
I love the fall color palette that you have shown here, and I will definitely be purchasing some things from your list. Having said that, it is still July and I want to enjoy the remainder of the summer (I waited all winter for summer!). I will not transition my house to fall until mid September.
If this was put out a month ago, that would be late August, Cheryl... If you don't want to get a headstart on the new 2022 colors & styles, you can kick back for a few more weeks... Stores already have Halloween & Christmas decor out, so take a chill pill 💊 🙃

I love the color palette that fall brings! And the coziness! I also try to avoid pumpkins and ghosts.

@@elizabethwright4784 They've lasted for up to a year for me. I still have one from last year that has not gone mushy yet. I keep it in a cool room where I dry my herbs (and my spinning gourds - for crafts).
Living in the UK I'm not into pumpkin everything so this was a refreshing change. One of my favourite autumn/fall interiors tips is to fill a beautiful crystal bowl with cinnamon scented pine cones. I always keep a bowl on the console table in the kitchen and the smell is divine
I really love the idea of transitioning the home subtly with colors, textured, and scents. I feel like it’s a more timeless look and truthfully less expensive because you won’t feel compelled to buy all of the cheap themed garbage that comes out every year.

The precipice of fall? It's not even August. Where I live, it doesn't get cooler (yes, the temperature signifies Fall) until Nov and thinking of adding blankets when it's 104 degrees out side isn't fun. I think this video is a couple months, at least, too early.
Me too. I love Fall decor and tablescaping. So warm, pretty and cozy. Love your color palette. Great idea the candles decor. Love it ! Thanks for sharing.
I've never started decorating for fall in August, that is still summer. Always in September, even later in the month. I so agree with your decor ideas for the fall, that is how I liked it for many years. I was raised in Europe. ☺
Fall is my favourite season. Halloween and fall decor creeps me out ( I am weird I know) I do love changing my pillow covers and decor. I get dried florals from the flower nurseries, they have such beautiful real dried flowers, bleached Italian ruscus is my favourite, bunny tails and tatarica they make a cute arrangement too.
Im sooooo excited for Ms V to be less excited with the start of every episode. Sorry, it just feels juvenile when done all the time. My bad I know, it’s probably authentic. Just saying
Here in South Florida we have 3 days of fall and 2 days of winter. But come September I will be decorating for fall!!! I try and stay cool listening to Christmas music in August.
I am not ready for fall, Valentina 😂 I am sitting in my summer garden and sipping my coffee. However, I am ready for fall planning. I am so turned off by the decors with pumpkins, fall and thankful. I want something more elevated and you delivered. Thank you so much 😊
I agree with you about the pumpkin everything and all the signs. But the fake flowers I really don't understand. In Denmark, as you know, we don't really decorate for fall. But I love a bowl with apples, sunflowers or chrysanthemum in a vase and pinecones in a glass jar.
I moved to Florida 4 years ago we don’t have fall here and all the stuff I do have feels fake . When I lived in the Northeast . It was enjoying the cooler air that crisp air that I wish I could bottle up . It was seeing the colors of autumn. So I kinda like the idea of adding in warmer colors and your idea of scents
Her house is black and depressing and boring so I say do what makes you happy. I don’t think there are mistakes when decorating the way they makes you happy and bring you joy.
LOL!!!! I think you are the Grinch of Fall! Love your channel, content and your charismatic teaching skills! I have learned so much watching your channel, thank you and I appreciate you! Tammy NJ/VA
Fall is my favorite season. Y’all can have summer. I love to see the leaves change colors and have a reason to put on a nice cozy sweater. Unfortunately I’m in an area of my state that doesn’t have the maples and oaks that have leaves that give that wow factor in the fall.
I love using the muted fall colors that mimic the seasonal changes going on outside, like the color of mums and wheat. Your suggestions to avoid the kitschy fall decor (that will even soon be crammed on shelves in CVS and Walgreens) also goes a long way to avoiding visual clutter and having to store the clutter too. Thank you for this video....the highlight of my morning.
We are having excessive heat waves in Southern Oregon and days of 108 F temperature, it is summer here and late summer doesn’t even begin until mid-August. It’s ridiculous for you to be so out of season, while the West Coast is in danger of wildfires, America is a big country and you seem only attuned to the weather there in your little slice of it. We can’t relate to Autumn anything until August is over.
Then don't watch this video of the subject isn't of interest to you. It's kind of ironic that you are saying that she is wrong to not cater to your taste, while at the same time saying it wrong to cater to people who are ready to talk about fall.
@@mrscmeier9570 The Autumn equinox is not until September 22, over two months from July so Nature is not my taste but a calendar fact and she woefully jumped the gun, it’s not a matter of right or wrong but is an issue if useful or unuseful. It’s useful to be in one accord with creation and the Laws of nature not of sales merchandising for profits. You can pretend like that if you want to but it doesn’t change facts.

We are sweltering in excessive heat and fire danger on the other side of the country from where you might be.

Fall is my absolute favourite! Ikea actually got these really realistic looking artificial "dried" hydrangeas in a muted grey green and muted peachy orange. I can't have real flowers with my cats so these are a treat to find! I do keep real florals on my kitchen balcony though and I can't wait to transition those to fall! I can see those from inside and they're safe behind a window from my cats so I can have a lot of fun with those! (Even cat safe flowers get eaten so they're not cute lol)
@@cassiesmith2019 it's totally a thing with some cats! I just do my best to find the most real looking florals and plants because my place looks too sad with nothing! Yes in the heat the outdoor bouquets don't last as long, it's currently 26 Celsius here in BC, Canada by the beach which isn't even that bad but I'm holding off a but before getting a new outdoor bouquet haha.
I can not wait! I'll be moving into my new space just in time to decorate for Fall/Winter! The candles are essential! I swap out my bed linens (and I LOVE Brookline since I discovered them at the beginning of COVID. I treated myself to a gorgeous sheet set since we were all nesting in our homes.) and my summer weight throw blankets with thicker, warmer, cozier blankets.
We dont go in much for fall decoration in the UK. Door wreaths are only for Christmas here, and pumpkins are just for Halloween (one night) We definitely pick up so many of your Traditions but so far not the fall pumpkin whole house decor, thankfully😂The trick or treat wasn't even a thing here until quite recently. I am so guilty of not changing out things for the seasons though, (apart from Christmas) so you have inspired me to put away my pine cones for the summer and think about changing the pillows scents etc to ring the changes, instead of all ways keeping it the same. Thanks so much for your inspiration. You bring the fun into homemaking and I really look forward to your Vlogs. xx
I live in Finland and we really don't have a lot variety when it comes to Fall and Halloween decor. So I have also become more creative. I like acacia wood,neutral orange colours and beige. They make my home really cozy!
I loved all the tips you shared! I'm with you! Stores push the "next season" ideas in our faces months ahead so we may as well be thinking of how to purchase items that evoke true hygga rather than be surrounded by knickknacks and signs. No offense to those that lean towards that whimsy. I love outdoor fall scents indoors, open windows for cool, breezy days, cozy blankets, warm drinks by the fire, flickering candles, diffusers and cohesive color scheme with my surroundings outside my home. That's fall to me. I also plan each season 2 months ahead so this video made sense to me. Thank you!
I think the pumpkin overload is mostly a southern charm thing lol I’m guilty of it! I just no longer wish to decorate like that because my kids are older now and they actually appreciate when I do not jump up any space lol. I actually diy’d with pompous grass that I found ! So you can decorate without having to spend a lot. I searched up Fall DIY high end and found a few good ones. Yours is definitely a favorite! I love the sheets. Thank you for all of the inspiration! You truly know what you’re talking about! 😘
It’s winter 🥶 here in Australia 🇦🇺 and the only things I changed out were my cushions and throw rugs, and I’ll probably keep them around once we hit our summer months, we’re not big on decorating for the different seasons here, it’s mainly at Xmas time, I can’t imagine having pumpkins 🎃 around my home Lol 😂, plus I don’t have a lot of storage space to be changing my decor every few months for the different seasons, I think it’s more an American thing from what I’ve seen from my USA 🇺🇸 friends and here on UA-cam, we have more Summer months than winter and I’ll be glad to see the end of our winter 🥶 even though it doesn’t get as cold as some places in Australia 🇦🇺 and over there 👉🏻, but I still love watching how you decorate your home and share your knowledge with us, I love it very much. ♥️♥️
I can't wait for fall/ winter my fave season.. have my cold weather clothes waiting to be worn and the decor, the winter smells, all the cozies.. Yeeessssss!!!! Can't wait although we are sweltering in Az...
A neutral colored pumpkin or two are welcome at my house😀, but as V always says: your home is about you. I'm thoroughly enjoying a long awaited summer, but I enjoy Fall video's any time of year, I even rewatched Christmas decorating videos this week. So cosy! Thanks for the video
I'm like you, I start dreaming about Fall when June hits us. I enjoyed this video and even though I live in Europe (as you know they do not do themed decoration here in general) I absolutely loved your Fall decor video. I am so ready and possibly even more thrilled than you are that finally we are seeing the first days of fall here in Italy! 🤎
I think I started watching HoV videos last fall, and that was when I started working on going more natural with the fall foliage and decor. Last year I was really happy with how it all turned out. I didn't go overboard, it was all more subtle, moody kinds of things, patterns, textures and scents. I loved it! I do have one Mickey pumpkin pillow that I can't not use! 😆🎃
I've been so busy looking & admiring all of your descriptions, I was getting lost in deep thoughts of cool, crisp breezes & all things I love. I don't like to decant summer away, yet this summer in the southeast has been and is brutal. I'm in love with Pottery Barns' faux fur throws & blankets; deciding which ones to add to my copious collection is Heaven to me! Thank you so much for bringing these options to us 🤎
How can you be thinking about Fall already in July when we aren't even ready for it in Alaska? 🤣I mean. It isn't even dark at night yet! So forget about ambiance. However, the night is cold enough for a fuzzy blanket on the couch now. My dog has taken over my new one though. Great video as usual!
I agree with not having the things that say “Fall y’all”, “Thankful “, “Blessed”, “Pumpkin Spice & Everything Nice!”. I got rid of all my fall signs, pillows, etc two years ago when I did a whole house declutter. I still have my pumpkins but they are not traditional, they are teal mercury glass in one room and cream and sage ceramic ones in another room. I don’t have anything Halloween except the real pumpkin I carve with my grandson! The idea of a whole house color palette for the year and seasons is something I have been working on also for the past two years. I am getting closer to getting it the way I want. My husband likes this approach too!
I am doing the same thing in our new home. Transitioning from the ole decor with sayings to a color pallets instead. I gave away all my previous holiday decor with words andI sayings. Valentina is right, it’s much more classy & upscale to use a color palette. 🍁 🍃
I m in Southern California so to start thinking of fall in July doesn’t work for me! It is so hot here but I do like your tips on color, throw blankets and fragrance! You are spot on!! Thank you 😊
I’m with you- we’ve had a week of temps in the 💯 and won’t see that dip below 99 until (hopefully) late next week. So I’m not going to even think about changing seasons in my house until September 1st. Call me old fashioned, call me traditional, I’m okay with that 😀
I agree in the wait until it’s actually closer to the season to decorate and no start in July or worse keep the fall/Halloween decor whole year around, and i also like when things are actually put around the house after some thoughts and not just a mish mash of stuff thrown in there…but the house is nice when is cozy and leaved and doesn’t necessary looks like out of a magazine!😊
Thank you for the great tips Valentina! Fall is my absolute favourite season. Here in Europe is way too hot weather now so I can't wait. I'd love to change my interior for each season. But I have a big problem: How can I store blankets, beddings, faux flowers and other decoration for 2-3 different seasons? I live in a capital city in an apartement. My other question: What to do with the empty glasses of scented candles? They are too pretty to throw away and too much waste in my eyes. You need again storage place. Or has somebody got a good idea? :)
I am happy Canadian and I do love the F word lol but tad a bit soon to chat about it - but I do love all the colours and the coziness Just keep it elegant and simple No need to go over the top with ghost and gobbling ....but candy is good !
I know it's a little bit too early to talk about autumn 🍂 but I completely understand how you feel. I went to homegoods2 days ago, they alreadyhavefall decoration out. Since, fall is my favorite season of the year it's hard not to get excited about it. I love your tips and ideas! ❤️
Way too early for thinking about Fall. I live in Spain and it’s in the 80s/90s for at least another 6 weeks then down to 70s. I don’t want to live my life 3 months ahead. Loved the video but not ready for Fall taking one month at a time.
I love all your cozy videos , and great taste of decor, im guilty with all the holiday decor lol, but my kids love it … thanks for the tips and tricks 🥰
Agreed! We have almost two more months of summer! Please slow down and enjoy every day as it unfolds ❤️
It's too early to say the F word. As a Canadian, I hate having the 3 months of decent weather interrupted by the F word. LOL, I will make an exception for you Ms. V.
Haha F word! (And I totally agree!)
Agree it’s July!!
No kidding… 105 here. FALL????

Noooooo!!!! Way too early to think about fall!
But, but it’s still July. We wait all winter for summer. 😫
I will hang on to summer until the very last second lol
I’m with you! I’m not a fan of summer but it’s here and let’s just enjoy it for what it is! Longer days more sun more heat. Live in the moment
Nothing annoys me more than people who hurry the summer away 😩😩😩
Yep, I live for the summer!
She lives in Atlanta area, as do I, by end of July you just want the bugs to go away and the endless humid HOT FLASH weather;-).

Here in South Florida we have 3 days of fall and 2 days of winter. But come September I will be decorating for fall!!! I try and stay cool listening to Christmas music in August.
Yay!! I can't wait for the cooler temps! Fall is my favorite.. so cozy with blankets, candles, baking, warm beverages. So happy! ✨️
Yay!!! I'm not the only one trying not to geek out about fall being the next season!!
Love fall winter!
I am not ready for fall, Valentina 😂 I am sitting in my summer garden and sipping my coffee. However, I am ready for fall planning. I am so turned off by the decors with pumpkins, fall and thankful. I want something more elevated and you delivered.
Thank you so much 😊
I agree with you about the pumpkin everything and all the signs. But the fake flowers I really don't understand.
In Denmark, as you know, we don't really decorate for fall. But I love a bowl with apples, sunflowers or chrysanthemum in a vase and pinecones in a glass jar.
I moved to Florida 4 years ago we don’t have fall here and all the stuff I do have feels fake . When I lived in the Northeast . It was enjoying the cooler air that crisp air that I wish I could bottle up . It was seeing the colors of autumn. So I kinda like the idea of adding in warmer colors and your idea of scents
I hear you, I understand what you’re saying, and I appreciate your advice. Nevertheless, I will still use my pumpkins 😂
Her house is black and depressing and boring so I say do what makes you happy. I don’t think there are mistakes when decorating the way they makes you happy and bring you joy.
Can't think of Fall with the heat index over 100 degrees 😳
I love these tips! I want to be able to create an elegant yet cozy fall theme, and these ideas will really help me do that!
LOL!!!! I think you are the Grinch of Fall! Love your channel, content and your charismatic teaching skills! I have learned so much watching your channel, thank you and I appreciate you! Tammy NJ/VA
Thanks so much Tammy!
Fall is my favorite season. Y’all can have summer. I love to see the leaves change colors and have a reason to put on a nice cozy sweater. Unfortunately I’m in an area of my state that doesn’t have the maples and oaks that have leaves that give that wow factor in the fall.
I love using the muted fall colors that mimic the seasonal changes going on outside, like the color of mums and wheat. Your suggestions to avoid the kitschy fall decor (that will even soon be crammed on shelves in CVS and Walgreens) also goes a long way to avoiding visual clutter and having to store the clutter too. Thank you for this video....the highlight of my morning.
LOVE THIS!!!!!!!! We're finally getting a new fireplace after struggling to schedule some workers for a year. FALL here I come!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Hang on to summer,girl. Winter is a no for me. It has been too hot this summer.
We are having excessive heat waves in Southern Oregon and days of 108 F temperature, it is summer here and late summer doesn’t even begin until mid-August. It’s ridiculous for you to be so out of season, while the West Coast is in danger of wildfires, America is a big country and you seem only attuned to the weather there in your little slice of it. We can’t relate to Autumn anything until August is over.
Then don't watch this video of the subject isn't of interest to you. It's kind of ironic that you are saying that she is wrong to not cater to your taste, while at the same time saying it wrong to cater to people who are ready to talk about fall.
@@mrscmeier9570 The Autumn equinox is not until September 22, over two months from July so Nature is not my taste but a calendar fact and she woefully jumped the gun, it’s not a matter of right or wrong but is an issue if useful or unuseful. It’s useful to be in one accord with creation and the Laws of nature not of sales merchandising for profits. You can pretend like that if you want to but it doesn’t change facts.
@@nancynelson179 and your response doesn't change the fact that if the subject matter doesn't interest you or offends you, then don't watch and let other people who enjoy the content watch. Why dictate what she can post on HER channel and what other people can consume? Start your own channel if you want to discuss the solstice and heat waves and fires, etc. In this moment.
@@mrscmeier9570 Stop the harassment towards my being in the level, as a long time subscriber I enjoy The House of Valentina you tube channel and you seem to be the blamer type who wants me to placate you instead of being honest about my feelings. All people are equal and unique. I am neither above nor beneath anyone. Peace be upon you. We are sweltering in excessive heat and fire danger on the other side of the country from where you might be. Valentina can post any vid she chooses and her loyal subscribers like me have free speech to express our gut instincts so why are you gaslighting someone’s opinion that differs from yours? Isn’t that a bit paranoid of you? STOP it.
@@nancynelson179 omg the lack of self awareness you have?!! You are welcome to your opinion and so am I. Don't post on a public forum if you don't want to hear opposing views. Or are only you allowed to post opposing views? You are the one trying to mandate what kind of content HOV should post and I am the one saying she she post whatever she wants. Read back what you wrote and try to follow your own advice. Have a great day ✌️
Fall is my absolute favourite! Ikea actually got these really realistic looking artificial "dried" hydrangeas in a muted grey green and muted peachy orange. I can't have real flowers with my cats so these are a treat to find! I do keep real florals on my kitchen balcony though and I can't wait to transition those to fall! I can see those from inside and they're safe behind a window from my cats so I can have a lot of fun with those! (Even cat safe flowers get eaten so they're not cute lol)
I have the same problem! I can’t keep my cats out of my window sill plants. And I live in Florida so it’s too hot to grow most of them outside. 😭😭
@@cassiesmith2019 it's totally a thing with some cats! I just do my best to find the most real looking florals and plants because my place looks too sad with nothing! Yes in the heat the outdoor bouquets don't last as long, it's currently 26 Celsius here in BC, Canada by the beach which isn't even that bad but I'm holding off a but before getting a new outdoor bouquet haha.
I’m sorry, but I can’t even think about Fall at this point. We’re only half way through Summer. It’s just too soon to talk about Fall.
WOAH, now! It's JULY! Lol. In NE Ohio, we drag out every last day of summer- but I will remember to watch this video in two months:)
I love pumpkins. You can’t have my gourds!!! Lol Happy pre fall y’all 🍁
Yay so happy there is a fall video up for 2022
I can not wait! I'll be moving into my new space just in time to decorate for Fall/Winter! The candles are essential! I swap out my bed linens (and I LOVE Brookline since I discovered them at the beginning of COVID. I treated myself to a gorgeous sheet set since we were all nesting in our homes.) and my summer weight throw blankets with thicker, warmer, cozier blankets.
We dont go in much for fall decoration in the UK. Door wreaths are only for Christmas here, and pumpkins are just for Halloween (one night) We definitely pick up so many of your Traditions but so far not the fall pumpkin whole house decor, thankfully😂The trick or treat wasn't even a thing here until quite recently. I am so guilty of not changing out things for the seasons though, (apart from Christmas) so you have inspired me to put away my pine cones for the summer and think about changing the pillows scents etc to ring the changes, instead of all ways keeping it the same. Thanks so much for your inspiration. You bring the fun into homemaking and I really look forward to your Vlogs. xx
I live in Finland and we really don't have a lot variety when it comes to Fall and Halloween decor. So I have also become more creative. I like acacia wood,neutral orange colours and beige. They make my home really cozy!
I loved all the tips you shared! I'm with you! Stores push the "next season" ideas in our faces months ahead so we may as well be thinking of how to purchase items that evoke true hygga rather than be surrounded by knickknacks and signs. No offense to those that lean towards that whimsy. I love outdoor fall scents indoors, open windows for cool, breezy days, cozy blankets, warm drinks by the fire, flickering candles, diffusers and cohesive color scheme with my surroundings outside my home. That's fall to me. I also plan each season 2 months ahead so this video made sense to me. Thank you!
I think the pumpkin overload is mostly a southern charm thing lol I’m guilty of it! I just no longer wish to decorate like that because my kids are older now and they actually appreciate when I do not jump up any space lol. I actually diy’d with pompous grass that I found ! So you can decorate without having to spend a lot. I searched up Fall DIY high end and found a few good ones. Yours is definitely a favorite! I love the sheets. Thank you for all of the inspiration! You truly know what you’re talking about! 😘
It’s winter 🥶 here in Australia 🇦🇺 and the only things I changed out were my cushions and throw rugs, and I’ll probably keep them around once we hit our summer months, we’re not big on decorating for the different seasons here, it’s mainly at Xmas time, I can’t imagine having pumpkins 🎃 around my home Lol 😂, plus I don’t have a lot of storage space to be changing my decor every few months for the different seasons, I think it’s more an American thing from what I’ve seen from my USA 🇺🇸 friends and here on UA-cam, we have more Summer months than winter and I’ll be glad to see the end of our winter 🥶 even though it doesn’t get as cold as some places in Australia 🇦🇺 and over there 👉🏻, but I still love watching how you decorate your home and share your knowledge with us, I love it very much. ♥️♥️
I’ll watch this after my summer is over 😒😏 sorry
Great video on my very favorite season! I can’t take my eyes off your gorgeous fireplace!
I can't wait for fall/ winter my fave season.. have my cold weather clothes waiting to be worn and the decor, the winter smells, all the cozies..
Yeeessssss!!!! Can't wait although we are sweltering in Az...
A neutral colored pumpkin or two are welcome at my house😀, but as V always says: your home is about you. I'm thoroughly enjoying a long awaited summer, but I enjoy Fall video's any time of year, I even rewatched Christmas decorating videos this week. So cosy! Thanks for the video
I am growing grey/blue pumpkins for the porch.
Ahhhh! I thought it was mostly only me V! Love these tips and seeing how fall forward you are too!!
I'm like you, I start dreaming about Fall when June hits us. I enjoyed this video and even though I live in Europe (as you know they do not do themed decoration here in general) I absolutely loved your Fall decor video. I am so ready and possibly even more thrilled than you are that finally we are seeing the first days of fall here in Italy! 🤎
When do you really decorate for fall? I always decorate on October 1.
My favorite part is the fragrance. It transforms EVERYTHING into the next season.
I think I started watching HoV videos last fall, and that was when I started working on going more natural with the fall foliage and decor. Last year I was really happy with how it all turned out. I didn't go overboard, it was all more subtle, moody kinds of things, patterns, textures and scents. I loved it! I do have one Mickey pumpkin pillow that I can't not use! 😆🎃
I've been so busy looking & admiring all of your descriptions, I was getting lost in deep thoughts of cool, crisp breezes & all things I love. I don't like to decant summer away, yet this summer in the southeast has been and is brutal. I'm in love with Pottery Barns' faux fur throws & blankets; deciding which ones to add to my copious collection is Heaven to me! Thank you so much for bringing these options to us 🤎
How can you be thinking about Fall already in July when we aren't even ready for it in Alaska? 🤣I mean. It isn't even dark at night yet! So forget about ambiance. However, the night is cold enough for a fuzzy blanket on the couch now. My dog has taken over my new one though. Great video as usual!
Happy Wednesday Valentina! I’m also a lover of fall! It’s my favorite here in Denver,Colorado!
Obsessed with this channel!!!😍🥰❤ excited everytime you post!
Early august hits and it’s fall for me 🍁🍃🫶🏽🤗
Lighting candles in the fall. Wow. Groundbreaking.
I love Fall! My favorite! I’m ready!!❤️❤️
I agree with not having the things that say “Fall y’all”, “Thankful “, “Blessed”, “Pumpkin Spice & Everything Nice!”. I got rid of all my fall signs, pillows, etc two years ago when I did a whole house declutter. I still have my pumpkins but they are not traditional, they are teal mercury glass in one room and cream and sage ceramic ones in another room. I don’t have anything Halloween except the real pumpkin I carve with my grandson! The idea of a whole house color palette for the year and seasons is something I have been working on also for the past two years. I am getting closer to getting it the way I want. My husband likes this approach too!
I am doing the same thing in our new home. Transitioning from the ole decor with sayings to a color pallets instead. I gave away all my previous holiday decor with words andI sayings. Valentina is right, it’s much more classy & upscale to use a color palette. 🍁 🍃
I m in Southern California so to start thinking of fall in July doesn’t work for me! It is so hot here but I do like your tips on color, throw blankets and fragrance! You are spot on!! Thank you 😊
I’m with you- we’ve had a week of temps in the 💯 and won’t see that dip below 99 until (hopefully) late next week. So I’m not going to even think about changing seasons in my house until September 1st. Call me old fashioned, call me traditional, I’m okay with that 😀
I’m so READY!!! Love to forage and use natural elements from garden inside !! Great TIPS! Thanks 🤩
I 100 % agree with you! Although I have to remind myself that I do agree with you when I’m in the store lol pumpkin obsessed! 🤪😂
Lol!!!!!!! We have to be strong for each other! 😅👊🏼
Fall?!?!?!? OH NO YOU’RE NOT HURRYING OUR SUMMER 😡
This video made me so happy! I can't wait until Fall! Looking forward to more Fall videos.🍂
Hi! What candle do you have burning I need some good suggestions😁
I love luxury bedding. I’m a Pottery Barn fan but I’d like to try this brand.
I agree in the wait until it’s actually closer to the season to decorate and no start in July or worse keep the fall/Halloween decor whole year around, and i also like when things are actually put around the house after some thoughts and not just a mish mash of stuff thrown in there…but the house is nice when is cozy and leaved and doesn’t necessary looks like out of a magazine!😊
Thank you for the great tips Valentina! Fall is my absolute favourite season. Here in Europe is way too hot weather now so I can't wait. I'd love to change my interior for each season. But I have a big problem: How can I store blankets, beddings, faux flowers and other decoration for 2-3 different seasons? I live in a capital city in an apartement. My other question: What to do with the empty glasses of scented candles? They are too pretty to throw away and too much waste in my eyes. You need again storage place. Or has somebody got a good idea? :)
I am happy Canadian and I do love the F word lol but tad a bit soon to chat about it - but I do love all the colours and the coziness Just keep it elegant and simple No need to go over the top with ghost and gobbling ....but candy is good !
I know it's a little bit too early to talk about autumn 🍂 but I completely understand how you feel. I went to homegoods2 days ago, they alreadyhavefall decoration out. Since, fall is my favorite season of the year it's hard not to get excited about it. I love your tips and ideas! ❤️
Way too early for thinking about Fall. I live in Spain and it’s in the 80s/90s for at least another 6 weeks then down to 70s. I don’t want to live my life 3 months ahead. Loved the video but not ready for Fall taking one month at a time.
Your new video is nice ,even though we in Greece have 42 degrees Celsius
I'm a fall/ winter person too, I tend to dress better in the colder seasons because I can layer!😊
I’m not adding a million pumpkins this year and I’m already adding these tips and loving the result! I needed it laid out like this 🧡💛
I love all your cozy videos , and great taste of decor, im guilty with all the holiday decor lol, but my kids love it … thanks for the tips and tricks 🥰
Me too..I am all about the orange, browns , pumpkins 🎃 lol
