We've had to finally give in and admit that summer is over. In an effort to embrace fall, we like to add some touches of the season into our home - like these orange Chinese Lantern Pods we added to our mantlescape this morning.

We love the way the bright orange contrasts with our pale blue walls, and that they remind us of some of the good things that come with the end of summer.

What do you do in your home to recognize the change in seasons?
