Happy Fall! I am so glad to welcome you to Camp Paradise, our log cabin, lakeside in the Wisconsin Northwoods, to share our porch decor this season on the Fall Porches and Patios Tour!
I am so excited to be part of this tour of talented bloggers all organized by Amber Follow The Yellow Brick Home to give you so many ideas for your own fall decor!
If you are coming from Virginia Sweet Pea , didn’t you just love her porch? So much inspiration!
This year I decided to use an orange and red color scheme.
I always love to pull in some of my vintage pieces and my Scotch Cooler and plaid, metal picnic basket work perfectly.
These orange mums are my favorite this season. Last year I used yellow and burgundy mums. See last year’s porch here.
My vintage Schwin bike brings home the pumpkins.
My husband built this sweet little fence to hide the garbage cans. I pulled together some fall plants, mums and a summer fern still in good shape around my bistro table to make a cozy sitting area.
I love sticking pumpkins around the yard. I added one on top of a wreath on a stump.
Five Little Pumpkins sitting on a gate. Didn’t you love that song as a kid?

I always look forward to visiting your gorgeous home! It’s probably better that I do it online because if I went in person…..you’d never get me to leave!

So sweet Christy! You would be welcome to stay!! Thanks for your sweet words! Love touring with you!
Sarah says
Kristin, what a lovely lakeside home. I’m one who loves fall with all it’s earthy colors and those pops of orange. Your vintage picnic basket and Scotch cooler are making my heart flutter. Wonderful pieces anytime of year, but perfect for a fall vignette. Thanks for sharing your fall touches. The five pumpkins on the fence definitely made this retired elementary teacher smile.
[email protected] says
Sarah, Loved reading your comments!! It was so fun to pull my porch together this year. I had thought I was going to do white mums and pumpkins and green accents and this is where it ended up! 😉
CoCo says
Kristen, your porch looks straight out of a magazine! I love all the plaid pieces you’ve used and I love all the mums and pumpkins too. Everything is gorgeous and is warm and inviting. You nailed it lady! Hugs, CoCo
[email protected] says
CoCo, Thank you so much for the super sweet compliments! Made my day!
Marty Oravetz says
Oh my word, your home is amazing and I adore your Fall. Your porch is definitely magazine worthy. So beautifully done with such great style.
[email protected] says
Thank you Marty for the amazing compliments! I am such a fan of your blog and style this means so much to me!
Linda @ Itsy Bits And Pieces says
This is all so pretty, Kristin! Your decor is so perfect with your log home…and blends so beautifully with the gorgeous natural setting! I love that wonderful old bike…I need to find one!
[email protected] says
Thanks so much Linda! I was so excited to find that bike and at a great price!! Yours is out there waiting for you!
Laura Ingalls Gunn says
Kristin your vintage Schwinn rode straight to my heart! I also love how you encircled your porch light with twigs. So clever and cute!
[email protected] says
That bike may be my favorite find of the year!! Love touring with you Laura!
Stacey @ Poofing the Pillows says
Oh my goodness Kristin. You have the idyllic spot for fall decorating. I love the way the bicycle is all decked out. Your vintage plaid pieces, all the pumpkins, and that sweet twig wreath…it’s all beautiful.
[email protected] says
Thanks so much Stacey! One of my kids made that twig wreath when I fell in love with one we saw at a craft fair. He said he could do it and he did. Makes me so happy!
Cindy@countyroad407 says
Seriously stunning. I always love your seasonal decor. Everything is always so stinkin cute! Living there must be like being on vacation all the time.
[email protected] says
LOL! It is, it originally was our vacation home and we never take for granted that we took the adventure to live here full time! Fun to tour with you!
Paula says
Your outdoor decor is beautiful! I’m also a lover of vintage and I love how you used red plaid along with orange pumpkins. Your decorated bike really captured my vintage loving heart, especially with the view of the lake in the background.
[email protected] says
Thanks so much Paula!! Such a fun tour to be on together!
Angelina says
I love your plaid and pumpkins on your porch! But even more I love your vintage decked out for the Fall! Such a cute picture!
[email protected] says
Thanks so much Angelina! I had so much fun pulling it all together!
Amber Ferguson says
Kristin I love it all as usual! I would never have thought of red and orange together like this. So original and inspiring! Using the Scotch plaid really pulled it all together. The five little pumpkins are adorable.
Lucky you for getting a privacy fence for your gargage cans. Do you get many foraging critters?
I am loving the use of ferns in fall decor. A few years ago I realized they really don’t die out until November so why toss them?
Loving your vintage bike bringing home the pumpkins. Also loving your heirloom pumpkin color choices. The football is a great touch. Wonderful fall feels coming from Camp Paradise! Thanks for touring with us. Happy fall!
[email protected] says
Thanks so much Amber! This again was such a fun tour!! I agree that the ferns do so well after all the other summer plants are done and I love the whimsy of them. Happy Fall!
Jann Olson says
I love your sweet Wisconsin mountain home! Hubby and I visited Door County one year and loved everything about it. I have such a fetish for plaid, but didn’t pull any of them outside this year. I have one container that faded so badly from the sun. They sure do look cute and I love your bike!
hugs,
Jann
[email protected] says
Thanks so much Jann! I loved your tour too! Such a fun season to decorate for!!
Lora says
Kristin, I love how you popped pumpkins anywhere and everywhere; I do that too! Always love seeing your home all decked out for the season. Your bike, especially. I just got a “new” black one…think I need a double basket like yours, though;)
[email protected] says
I loved your bike too Lora! It was so fun to decorate this year!
Sarah Garden says
I love mums…especially the bright orange ones you picked to decorate your porch. I’ll bet driving home into your driveway puts a smile on your face every time you pull up and see the beautiful décor 🙂
[email protected] says
You are so right Sarah! I do smile every time I come down the driveway! I was planning to do all white mums this year and then I saw the orange ones and fell in love. It changed my whole porch plan! Happy Fall!
Shannon@Belle Bleu Interiors says
Kristin, your mountain home is absolutely breathtaking! Your photographs looks as if they belong in magazine! I love plaid, and you have displayed it beautifully! Happy Fall, sweet friend!!!
[email protected] says
Thanks so much Shannon! That is such an amazing compliment. Being in a magazine would be a dream! Love touring with you!
Botanic Bleu says
Kristin,
I never tire of seeing your beautiful log house in the woods. With all the glorious natural wooded areas, your home looks decorated without anything additional added by you, but your groupings go perfectly with all the big outdoors. The pumpkin in the wreath of colorful leaves, the pumpkins on the stone wall, and the foliage backdrop around your house and driveway are truly Fall scenes. I love the green and deep orange mottled pumpkins with your green plaid vintage containers and rust chrysanthemums. And, how could anyone not love your bike decked out with Fall splendor! LOVE IT ALL…
Happy Fall,
Judith
[email protected] says
Thanks so much Judith for all the sweet compliments! Nature really does do all the work for me here! I’m truly lucky!
Carol Cook says
Your home is amazing. I love it at fall and your bicycle!
I cannot wait to see it all decked out for Christmas.
[email protected] says
Thanks Carol! I love decorating it for Christmas!
patti @ pandora's Box says
What a festive entryway. I loved the photo of the pumpkin on the stump!! Enjoy the Fall!
[email protected] says
Thanks so much Patti! It was fun to decorate!
Heather says
Absolute fall perfection, Kristin!!! I always love your vintage touches added in to each space. And your cabin is just beautiful!!! So fun to join you on this tour!
[email protected] says
Thanks so much Heather! It has been such a wonderful tour!
Chloe Crabtree says
Your vintage coolers are always a great addition to your seasonal displays, but they seem particularly fitting for fall with their classic plaid patterns. All of your pumpkins set agains your stone walls and stone steps are a great contrast in color and texture! Happy Fall!
