Let Sunflowers Take You into Fall

I start thinking about Fall this time of year,

as our schools start August 7th!

I love sunflowers any time

but I especially like to use them

to transition from Summer to Fall~

An Early Fall Wreath on the front door…

A Fall Mailbox Swag

And, while you’re at it, make one for inside too!

I like to have a seasonal centerpiece

on the glass table in the entryway

which is seen from all over the house

Sunflowers are paired with juicy Summer tomatoes

for a late Summer look

A MacKenzie-Childs tiered tray

looks so pretty full of faux sunflowers

Perfect for a late summer tablescape with

sunflower plates and sunflower napkin rings

I also like to use a cake pedestal to elevate a flower arrangement

The small wood pumpkins at the base add a hint of Fall

Painted wine bottles are grouped together

to form a sunflower “vase”

A Sunflower Snack Jar for the kitchen

Sunflowers added to a kitchen vignette

September Sunflowers table with a sunflower runner

With faux sunflowers tucked in the chandy!

A pitcher with Painted Sunflowers is a double dose!

Fill the days ahead with sunflowers!

    Jenna, you have so many wonderful and creative ideas here I hardly know where to start! Love your sunflower theme and yes, they are such happy flowers. I forgot that the kids go back to school in August and it must seem like fall is not far behind. Love the bee pitcher and the sunflower pitcher. The sunflower tablescape is so cute, especially with the sunflowers on the chandy. Funny thing, I was in Michaels today looking for… yes, sunflowers lol. The have lots of them in stock but I’ll wait until they go on sale. Thanks for all the creativity here and I hope you are enjoying your summer.

    Sunflowers are the perfect flower to transition for summer to fall with their warm brown center and sunny golden rays Jenna! I’m counting down the days until fall with this summer heat, love your round up! 🌻💛

    I just love sunflowers and how you’ve used them, Jenna. They still feel like summer, yet they’re sort of a preview to fall with their golden faces. I love how you painted the snack jar! And the tomato can ‘vase’ is a great look. Of course, M-C and sunflowers are a perfect pair!

    Your sunflower decorations look beautiful and your table is amazing. I feel the same way – take my patriotic decor down after 4th of July and do sunflowers, bees, and black and white – then as it gets closer to fall I tuck in some leaves. Got some great ideas from your post – thanks !
