I display a collection of old Goosebumps books and some tiny pumpkins and call it a day. (The Slappy books still frighten me at 34.) Anything with that cursive font is a no for me.

This post simultaneously made visible all my thoughts ( judgements) on Fall Decor and made me LOL. Amazing!

I will be buying the John Derian cabbageware butter dish but cabbageware is not just for fall it’s for life

I have that quilt and can attest to the heirloom quality - so well made. That Otherland candle is verrrrrrry tempting

Otherland does have a generous "if you don't like" return policy so just do it!

WHAT a great piece!!! Had to read it because “fuck decorating for fall” ~ when my boys were small & I was a single mom in med school.. Halloween was my BIG time because I could strew all the cobwebs all over whatever weird little house or apt we were renting at the time & buy all the paper junky decorations w alacrity..

it was such a fab low rent rendezvous

(bTW happened to b outside Boston

Hence, my youngest, now fully a grown well-employed young man.. Goes ALL out on the spooky

decor in his apt in NYC. It is so quirky & hilarious

Anyway.. I, too, am in the fiery hot 🥵 east side of LA completely

Yeah, fuck it!- although I live in Australia so that's easy for me to say, but we certainly don't bedeck our homes in pumpkin paraphernalia when it's Autumn here! I struggle enough decorating for Christmas! It's just not my aesthetic. I hate fake, cheap (I'm not necessarily referring to price), tacky junk so why would it fill my house with it just because it's Christmas and I'm expected to?! I keep it very low-key at our place. Btw, my children have survived that particular "deprivation" Ho-ho-ho!

I can only hear “Sweater Weather” in SNL voice. But I don’t think the person buying that word cloud sees it that way…

my first job after I moved to the U.S. was at Pier 1, where i manned the diffuser section and had to sweep up fallen (fake) leaves from the "fall wreaths"

anyway, i bought one of those schoolhouse quilts and i love it! is on my daughter's bed, a winner

Leonora Epstein's avatar

I also have the schoolhouse quilt - it’s the best
