How to create Florida Fall

The month of September is here and that means fall is just around the corner! But here in Florida when we’re experiencing a heat index of 105 in the middle of the month, it can be a little hard to get into the spirit. We all want to be able to enjoy our pumpkin spice lattes, wear cute sweaters and have a bonfire as soon as the months change but instead were stuck with lots of water, shorts, and the AC constantly running. We’ve put together a few tips and tricks on how to get into the spirit even if it’s 98 degrees outside… phewww!

 

 

Get an ICED pumpkin spice latte

Even though it won’t be the same we can still enjoy the pumpkin flavoring iced instead of hot. Both Starbucks and Dunkin Doughnuts have their fall drinks out now!

 

 

Light fall scented candles

Since bonfires are out of the question in the hit, having candles lit that feels your home with the smell of warm pumpkin pie is sure to do the trick. Unfortunately, there will not be any s’more roasting just yet.

 

 

Start decorating the house

It will be a while before we start to feel that crisp fresh air of fall that has just a slight chill to it, but it is never too early to break out the fall leaves and cute pumpkins to start making your home feel like fall is here. This obviously is our favorite part of the holiday season! Try switching up the style and go for a white and green fall theme, or keep it classic and use all of the beautiful autumn colors.

 

 

 

Watch a scary movie

This will be sure to put you in the spooky spirit!

 

 

Bake some fall treats

Pumpkin bread, pumpkin muffins, pecan pies, caramel apples oh my! Be sure to eat lots and lots of candy corn.

 

Though we may not have beautiful fall leaves, a long season of sweater weather, or the ability to drink hot pumpkin spice lattes all season we can still make the most out of the short time we get to spend in fall!

2021 Home & Garden Lifestyle Expo

 

 

This past Saturday, June 12th, the A.Team brought some fun design trend topics to the Home and Garden Lifestyle Expo. A free annual event that takes place in downtown Sanford, Florida at the Sanford Civic Center. This indoor/outdoor event features local businesses and companies that are experts in areas such as home improvement, health, wellness, and shopping. With a variety of activities, programs, demos, and opportunities to talk to professionals, this event is always full of excitement and packed with a plethora of information. This year for entertainment there was live music, a kid’s zone with an interactive show, a live dance performance, a rock painting booth, a flower planting station, and many chances to win door prizes, gift cards, and more. How’s that for a fun-filled day?!

 

 

Every year, Amber, our lead designer at A. Clore Interiors, has the benefit of hosting this lovely event making the A. Team the spotlighted interior design booth at the expo. Our booth was bursting in pink and yellow and even gave guests the opportunity to win a free 1 hour in-home consultation!

 

 

We even brought along our tropical summer vibes flat lay. It incorporates a variety of texture and definitely shouts bold color choice.

 

 

This year, designers Amber and Ariel held periodic discussion sessions where they shared design trends for 2021. The topics for the day included a trend forecast on bold interiors, how to step up your wall finishes, what is in for outdoor design, and get that curb appeal. During these sessions, Amber and Ariel updated us on how to use color, material, furniture, finishes, and accessories to amp up your spaces and stand out from other homes on the block.

 

 

If you weren’t able to make it to the expo, here are a few things to remember…

Don’t be shy! Bring more life into your home and let your personality shine through.

You can turn that lackluster room into a “wow moment” with some simple, edgy, or funky accents.

You don’t have to go far to catch a break. Create your own forever staycation right in your backyard!

And don’t forget your house has the potential to be a head-turner it all starts with a little creativity.
