I will start by saying, remember when I disliked our mantle? When I said it, it was the space that I found difficult to photograph. I wrote a blog post, which I will link below. Well, I love it now & it is one of my favorite spaces to style & photograph. It's about the angle of how I take the photos. A cozy mantle with warm fall colors was today's post on Insta . I brought in a Fall sign that I purchased last year. Sadly the business has gone out of business since then. I hav

In this tablescape, I used many elements of Fall, from wood tones, copper, and neutral colors. Every item has a different texture but goes well & compliments one another. I kept the height of many of the elements low & worked upward by using the taper candles. My guest will still be able to enjoy an engaging conversation without having to look over or around anything. I style most of my centerpieces from the center & work outward to create a balance & stay focused on what vib

Is there anything better than looking at a beautiful Fall Mantle in your bedroom? I've learned to call it a mantle, as so many refer to it as a mantle. I would refer to the space on the table with the shelf. But in all reality, the "shelf" is a vintage mantle. It is one of my favorite spaces to style. From my vintage mirrors; to fall foliage, a variety of taper candles, crystals, new prints & cozy textiles show that vintage & new can blend seamlessly. Perfect Fall hues give

Battery-operated candles have definitely come a long way. To their texture & realistic flame. Here at CCH, I love to use these in Fall & Winter months to give a cozy vibe all day without having the worry of a real candle. The glow at night is realistic & warm. You'll see how I use them through the season, alone or under a cloche. Most of these come with a remote & offer different modes & timers. String lighting sets off a magical vibe in any space, some just as it with a tw

Well, hello sweet mini pumpkins. A simple wall decor I had planned from the minute I saw this Canvas Wall Organizer . Mini pumpkins & corn take up this space. Two garlands on top to give a finished vibe to it. I added the Wood Beads to the Fall garland to support the string more strength & and to add to it a bit more. This space is in a corner of our kitchen with plenty of still space to style it. I tend to style this space with more of a fun vibe & let another side of my cr

We all know that every angle captures a different view, and every view offers a cozy vibe in its own way. I hope you enjoy the cozy views I share with you every day. Our dining table has started to see some gatherings happen & we're enjoying creating memories. We don't cover it up as we are enjoying the marks. In the future, I would love to sand it down to its bare wood. But for now, we're letting the sun, dishes & life do their thing on it. We or I don't want to worry about

To say that I love cozy vibes is an understatement. Here at Country Chic Homes , I love the ambiance of candles lit or not. As seen in many of these photos when taking photos, I lite them unless the flame comes too close to something flammable. Textures & different elements are key to my design. I love mixing them. New & vintage is such a great way to style any space. Even with a new piece, its story begins with you so make it a beautiful start. XO Ali

What a Monday! Super busy & I procrastinated yesterday evening & didn't write my post for today, so here we are. Haha, let's dive right into the post. Today on the Insta I shared my first Fall wreath of the season! Barely! It's not the main wreath here at CCH that I hang outside. That one is coming very soon. When I saw this crazy vine wreath, I knew I needed to have it & create our indoor wreath. I have plans to create more than one wreath this season & I will be using it a

There is just something so special about October, is it that the weather starts to feel like fall, is it that leaves on the trees start to turn a golden yellow & start to fall, or is it because it is the beginning of the most wonderful time of the year? Whichever & for whatever reason it is for you, I am happy to say HELLO October. I'll be chatting about the two posts that I will be sharing today over on Insta . Why two posts? Well, I have so much content that I want to share

Recently I decided that I wanted to share all things that I love & not only share home decor. I am the person behind CCH & I love so many things that why not share them with you & embrace all my passions? So as I have slowly crept into the world of sharing what I call "my vibe" lifestyle | beauty | and fashion. I find myself in front of the mirror that I have had for such a long time. It was a brushed silver & I decided to add some Rub n Buff to have it fit in with the aesth

Halloween vibes have arrived at CCH & the witches just landed. They hung their brooms & are taking a break before the next full moon. Hehe just kidding! I created a simple space in our kitchen using just three items, spider webs, witches' hats & cinnamon brooms. Also making their appearance is the black crow. They have been at CCH for the past few years for Halloween. The brooms that I used are from Trader Joe's. I will say they smell very good, the cinnamon brooms are a perf

My first collection was vintage amber bottles. Their warm tone captured me to continue collecting them. I would look for them at yardsales, flea markets & on FBMP. Today on Insta, I shared a simple Fall centerpiece on our dining table. I used a vintage European grain sack as a runner to bring in texture. I used a non-typical color with blue stripes. I placed one of my favorite risers from my friend Tamera. I'll add her shop below. I filled the riser with amber bottles of diff
