My Award Winning Chili Recipe
My homemade chili is as comforting as comfort food can get! This recipe has won many church chili cook-offs and for the first time ever, I’m sharing this recipe with you! I hope you love this award-winning chili recipe as much as I do.

What Makes This an Easy Recipe?
What makes this award-winning chili recipe so easy is first, it’s a one-pot meal so clean-up is minimal. Second, there are a handful of seasonings and ingredients and minimal prep time. Third, you just have to stir the chili while simmering every so often, and it’s done in just over an hour. No pressure cooking dry beans!

Green and Gold Fall Harvest Tablescape

Get inspired to set your Thanksgiving table with this Green and Gold Fall Harvest Tablescape and beautiful centerpiece garland.

Green and Gold Fall Harvest Tablescape

One of my favorite times of year to decorate and create tablescapes is Fall. There are so many beautiful colors to play with and pumpkins seem to come in all sorts of colors, sizes, and velvet! Who doesn’t love a velvet pumpkin?!! This Green and Gold Fall Harvest Tablescape if full of dark green velvety pumpkins, beautiful faux flowers and some of my treasured dishes.

I love adding other elements in the dining room to compliment the tablescape. You can never have enough velvet pumpkins so I added more brown colored velvet pumpkins below this beautiful wood sign from Teal Barn Signs (link for this sign is at the end of the post in the slider with photos of items). To add some color to the space below the sign, I put some of the leftover flowers from the garland centerpiece in a

Blue and Orange Pumpkin Themed Tablescape

Every year I like to create a pumpkin tablescape and this years came out completely different than I had planned it in my head. Blue was not in my original plan but as I was mixing and matching different dishes to see how they looked together I threw a blue plate in the mix just to see how it looked. The result was this blue and orange pumpkin themed tablescape!

As soon as I saw the blue against the orange, I knew I was changing my original plan. I have a lot of blue decor in my Highland, Utah home and my fall decor colors had a lot of orange colors mixed in so this worked out perfectly and matched my fall decor.

Two Different Versions

When I was setting the table, I had it set without the blue bowls. I liked it but then I added the blue bowls onto the table and I instantly liked it more. Here you can see each version. Which is your

Fall Home Tour -Highland House 2019
Welcome to my home and thank you for joining me on this years Fall Home Tour -2019. I hope you enjoy these glimpses into my Highland, Utah home. I’ll link all sources and information at the bottom of the post.

 
Entryway and Front Porch Decor
I loved the pumpkin tower obelisks that I created last season so I decided to use them again with a slight change. Instead of using larger pumpkins at the base, I used small pumpkins and gourds. If you’d like to see last seasons decor post click here: Fall Home Tour -Highland House

I planted mums and other perennials in the pots with the pumpkin towers and flower pots by the front door.

Indoor Entryway
For the entryway I created a floral arrangement in a blue and white ginger jar with dark blue, burnt orange, and ivory flowers.

I bought these furry ivory pumpkins at Gatehouse No1 in Orem Utah. They are so soft!

The Living Room
I created another floral arrangement in

How to Style with Fifty Shades of Blue Guest Room Reveal

Home, Home Decor, Home Tour, My Home, Room Sources ·

Check out my Fifty Shades of Blue Guest Room Reveal at the Highland house. See how I styled this well-used guest room.

Fifty Shades of Blue Guest Room Reveal

I’m finally sharing one of our guest rooms that we call the “blue” room. When we first moved into the Highland house, we somehow named each bedroom by color. This room had blue wallpaper and was a baby boy’s nursery so it naturally became the blue room. There is a lot of blue going on in here so that’s why I’ve called it the fifty shades of blue guest room reveal.

It took me awhile to share this room because it’s usually being used by one of the kids home from college or guests. We jokingly call our Utah house the Holly Hotel because we have a lot of family and friends that come to stay.

There is a Jack and Jill bathroom between the blue room and what I call the “gray room” on the other side.
