Another month has been and gone with such speed, which reminds me of one of the reasons Charlotte and I started Styling the Seasons. It’s a chance to stop for a moment, no matter how short, and reflect on the change of seasons around us and think about what the month means to us. It has been so wonderful to see all of your different interpretations of October but also the commonalities; I have so enjoyed seeing you collect leaves, pick pumpkins and decorate conkers. There has been so much beautiful nature in so many of your shots and blog posts and watching your children get involved has been really special too. Thanks to all of you who have posted a photo on Instagram, Twitter, Facebook or written a beautiful blog post. Charlotte and I spoke on the phone the other day and gushed about you all and how much you have inspired us! One of the nicest things this month has been ‘meeting’ new people who have shared their posts or shots, which was another reason for starting this blog series. We have discovered such stunning Instagram accounts and wonderful blogs and even a few of the wonderful images were featured on the gorgeous Folkings. Here are links to all the blog posts this month and search the #stylingtheseasons hashtag to see all of the images…

To pick a favourite post for October is very difficult indeed but there were a few that stood out for various reasons.
I was so inspired by Rebecca’s seasonal table centrepiece. I love everything about it! See the full post at Really Pretty Useful.
I was blown away by the beauty of the flowers in Sarah’s blog post. The combination of the wild flowers and the antique pine drawers is just gorgeous. See the full post at Freckled Fennell.
What is not to love about the glittery conkers that Lynne created? It’s such a beautiful example of using nature to style a surface. See the full post at Papermash.
Lori snuck this in just yesterday but I fell in love with it immediately. The fact that she has included hand printed tea towels and homemade autumn animal biscuits tipped it for me! See the full post at Wild and Grizzly.
Emily’s styled mantelpiece is so creative, colourful and bursts with joy. I also love that her children helped her along the way. See the full post at Makelight.
Thank you again to everyone who has styled and shared. I hope Styling the Seasons continues to give you inspiration throughout November and we really look forward to seeing more corners of your homes and finding out what next month means to you.
