Prepare for Fall at T.J. Maxx
Happy Thursday, ladies. It is time for me to Prepare for Fall at T.J. Maxx.
For years, I have chosen Marshall’s for fall preparations, but since moving, I now will prepare for fall at T.J. Maxx….it’s sister store.
T.J. Maxx helps us to shop quality items at really good prices.
When we arrived last year in late September, I did not decorate for fall like I am accustomed to doing.
The house was new to me…and how I would make it my own had not happened yet.
So, I hung a wreath and put out a few pumpkins, but it was not my usual at all.
In case you do not remember…I am all about fall decorations…and not about Halloween. I go directly from fall to Thanksgiving to Christmas.
But if you want to decorate for Halloween, T.J. Maxx has plenty of that as well.
Come shopping with me today and I will show you how to prepare for fall at T.J. Maxx.
PREPARE FOR FALL AT T.J. MAXX: FALL DECORATIONS FOR HOME
We are still on track this weekend to have rainy, cooler weather…so I will prepare for fall now!
My T.J. Maxx has an entire wall of fall floral from wreaths to arrangements.
I have three fall wreaths, so I was not shopping wreaths this week, but they had some beauties and I cannot believe how reasonable they are.
After I get the front porch fall decorations completed, I am going to see if there is space for a faux floral arrangement on the front porch.
I often decorate with real mums…but they do need constant care…just thinking out loud.
T.J. Maxx had many lovely ones to choose from and decisions have to be made quickly because their stock does move quickly.
I love table runners and I own two which were purchased at Marshall’s. T.J. Maxx has pretty ones in store.
When I told Mr. B that we were taking with us all of my holiday decorations, he gave me “that look.” But I refuse to go anywhere without them.
Table runners and all….
The holiday hand soaps can be expensive in other places.
This is why I also pick up one or two at T.J. Maxx for about half the cost of others.
Like the florals, they also have a wall of pillows and several locations throughout with pillows.
I liked the ones in the very top picture for my couch.
I do have seasonal fall pillows tucked away in boxes, so I resisted these…though it was hard.
And I use pillow covers from Amazon for the outdoor pillows on the front porch.
Finally, T.J. Maxx Fall Decorations includes lots and lots of unique pumpkins.
I brought hope a large one for the back porch that I will show you later. Otherwise, I have several packed away and ready to come out.
PREPARE FOR FALL AT T.J. MAXX: FALL FASHION
And I can prepare for fall…in my closet!
I always see Patricia Nash handbags at T.J. Maxx.
Or you can participate in a fall trend easily with T.J. Maxx.
I found the western and animal print trends in the handbag department.
The only I tried on during this trip was this Jane Delancey Authentic Denim Knit Top.
It is soft and lightweight and I might even wear it as a topper this weekend…I like it more for a light jacket than a shirt.
This trip was more to Prepare for Fall at T.J. Maxx at my house than me.
I will show you some of the final product next week…once I get it all done. Ask anything you like?
I hope I will never be too old to not decorate for my favorite seasons…it is just too much fun and my family looks forward to it…right down to the cinnamon broom!
Thanks for being here…hope to see you tomorrow…until then…
KEEP SMILING!!

For all your shopping, please use the links on my SHOPPING PAGE…thank you, thank you to all who shop this way and show support for this blog. It means the world.
I know how much joy you find in your fall decor, and I hope you get the weather to match this weekend to get you into the spirit! I looked at a lot of cute fall items at Home Goods yesterday, but I’m honestly not sure what I already have, as I haven’t decorated the past couple of years. I did by a beautiful beaded fall table runner last year on clearance that I think looks “period-appropriate” for my new 1920’s era home. I’m going to dig out my fall decor tubs this weekend and take inventory to see what else works in this house. Once I identify my gaps I’d like to get a few special pieces that feel vintage, and I’ll start at TJMaxx – thanks for the suggestion! I think of them more for clothes than decor, but they do have great items very affordably. Happy fall, y’all!
Cute purses!
Looking forward to seeing your new home decked out for fall. I have a small collection of glass & ceramic pumpkins that I put out and a centerpiece that was inspired by one of the readers of this blog a few years ago, plus the porch decor. I had not thought about seasonal pillows but after what you’ve shown us I’d like to go to TJMaxx and see what will work. in my freshly painted living room once the painters are finished. They are scheduled to begin on Tuesday and I have a lot to put away, take down, etc. before then. I’m excited for the change. Thanks for the suggestions.
They always have great purses there! It is a fun place to shop.
My seasonal decor is something I truly enjoy…cannot wait to get started soon. You might try the thrift places as well…I have seen great vintage pieces in thrift shops.
New paint is always fun…and TJ Maxx and Marshalls are go-to places for me for pillows. Have fun with your freshly painted living room, Kathie.
I will be doing some fall decorating myself this weekend I know its early, but I just want to enjoy it for as long as I can, I do like TJ Maxx and Marshalls for home decorating my kids are grown and have grown children themselves but if I don’t decorate, they want to know why and what’s wrong
You are exactly like me, Janet. My family asks what is wrong if I do not do it and I have now started earlier so I can enjoy it longer….have fun decorating.
I usually do a wreath, and there is a grower nearby who produces the most amazing huge mums, so I put those in the wide contemporary pots by my front door. When they’re gone, I replace them with the biggest real pumpkins I can find for the rest of the fall season. I like to use mostly real, not faux decor. I compost the pumpkins for my garden, and the flowers too. Inside, the traditional fall colors do not go with my decorating scheme, which is pale aqua, cream, caramel, and a touch of navy. I do order various pillow covers during the year to change things up, but am into solids since my rug is a multicolored pale oriental. It’s enough decorating for me to have fresh flowers in most rooms and some pretty glass items here and there. I find for me it’s restful.
Now that I downsized I keep my Fall decorations to a minimum; a wreath on the door, several throw pillows and lots of white/beige/green pumpkins filling up a big bowl in the foyer. All this can stay out through Thanksgiving. I always freshen up the guest powder room with soap and small, hand towels. I steer clear of anything Halloweenish since we don’t get Trick or Treaters but if I see something I like I may buy it for my daughter’s home. I have always said TJ Max, Marshalls and Home Goods are my therapy since I can wander around the aisles and think only happy thoughts!
Thanks for sharing, Susan. I add the real pumpkins as well for the front porch. I love those Cinderella Pumpkins…shaped like her coach!
LOL…I guess I also wander around the store smiling!
I don’t usually start my fall decorations this early in September, but you have inspired me to get started. Our house, porch and patio will all find fall decorations. Thanks for the journey to TJ Maxx, I like going to the stores for ideas and inspiration.
I’m glad you showed us a fresh seasonal look at T.J. Maxx, even though we only have a Marshall’s here in town. Glad because I think it’s time I snag a girlfriend for a fun shopping and lunch trip up to Eugene (hour+north) where we very much enjoy their T.J.’s! 😊 I saw earlier this week that Costco had ENORMOUS potted mums for sale, which I plan to snag…was just waiting for our 90+ degree temps to simmer down. Crazy hot for us!! Anyway, I like a soft fall look, achieved primarily with the hygge idea of cozy blankets and pillows, lots of cream colored candles and some scattered pussywillow branches and acorns in amongst my dining cupboard. If my home had a fall flavor or scent, it would be a snickerdoodle cookie. ☺️
I did mine last weekend even though I live in Florida and its hot. I bought some new things from Kirkland and T.J. Max. I have pillows from when Pier One was open.
I love lighting up my pumpkins and I can always pop on the electric fireplace to make it feel a little like fall.
I miss Pier One…it was near my previous home and I often found home items and gifts there. I was sorry to see it go. Well, if you are popping on the electric fireplace in Florida, I may consider it earlier here! Thanks Janet.
I love the pheasant pillow. I might have to take a trip to Maxx today.
I loved it too, Jane. It was hard to leave that one behind.
Fall is my favorite season to decorate, too. I love getting out the pumpkins, fall pillows and runners. Time to change the duvet, too.
TJ Maxx is an hour away but might be worth the trip. Pueblo also has a Hobby Lobby. No Home Goods without going up to Colorado Springs. I love just strolling through those stores with a smile as well. Lovely pillows and handbags. Can’t wait to see what you do with your decorations. I love mums but I’m allergic to them so look from a distance. Because of my health, I’ve given up potted plants because of the care needed and my husband hates anything that includes plants or yard work. He just went out and weeded for me and now he is quite grumpy.
In my city in the Midwest our weatherman tells us we’re having a brief False Fall. So I agree it’s time to start bringing out the Autumn decor! We are lucky in my city to have multiple Marshalls and TJMaxx stores in the area, along with their sister stores Home Goods and Sierra Trading Co. and I do shop them all! I approach shopping these stores for their “hidden treasures”. I really enjoyed seeing your Jane & Delancey knit top find at TJ Maxx. This label is new to me and although not generally an expensive brand, I find myself drawn to their items. I have one button down faux denim or extremely light weight denim shirt from them that I may never part with. I think it may be a stone washed chambray if there is such a thing. It’s just a great topper to toss on Spring through Fall. It was the perfect thing to pack for our Spring Nile river cruise and I did receive nice compliments on it from some of my fellow passengers. Hope you enjoy your new find.
You are a woman after my own heart when it comes to fall decorating. I don’t really do Halloween although I do have a couple of small Halloween figurines that I will briefly display. Most of my decor is geared toward fall with an emphasis on being grateful & giving thanks, and many of the pieces came from TJ Maxx. My house will be in a bit of disarray because my bedroom furniture is being delivered the day after Labor Day, so I won’t be doing my decorating until after that. I will try to sneak in a few things this weekend.
I’m with you on not a fan of Halloween decoration. I’m jealous my TJ Maxx rarely has Patricia Nash bags, only one time. The TJ Maxx’s in Texas are way better, bigger and have better stock than here in Tucson, AZ
