Fall Home Decor Ideas
Are you looking for simple fall home decor ideas, tips, and inspiration? I’ve got some fall decorating ideas for your home for some tasteful fall decor and cozy fall decor. Here are some fall home decor ideas tips to get your home ready for fall!
Opt for a Warm Color Palette and Warm Colors
Before you start thinking about getting your home ready for fall, think about the overall color scheme. The key is to stick to autumnal tones. Are you going for a clean minimal look? Something more bright? Dark and grungy? Having the theme and color scheme in mind will give you a better idea of the look and feel that you’re going for this fall. I have a fairly neutral home, so I knew I wanted pops of orange to contrast against all of the black and white. So when looking for fall decor, I focused on more of the burnt oranges and deeper autumn colors. Emphasize warm tones like deep oranges, browns, and burgundies in pillows, throws, and rugs.
- Textures: Mix and match different textures such as velvet pillows, knitted throws, and wool rugs to create depth and warmth.
- Accent Pieces: Add pops of color with decorative vases, picture frames, or even artwork that features fall hues.
Fall Candles and Scents
Incorporate candles with autumn scents like pumpkin spice or cinnamon to create a cozy atmosphere. Lighting up a candle will make your home smell warm and cozy in no time.
- Candle Holders: Use rustic candle holders made from wood or metal to enhance the fall vibe.
- Scented Sachets: Place fall-scented sachets in drawers or closets for a subtle, continuous autumn aroma.
Lighting adds just as much to the fall ambiance as any fall decor can. I swear by these Philips hue lightbulbs. You can adjust the lights however you want to set the tone. My favorite setting is dim orange lights to match with the faux fire place.
Fall Coffee Station
There’s a reason why pumpkin spice lates are a hit around this time. Having a warm beverage on a crisp fall morning is one of the best things about fall. Have your coffee (or tea) station ready. Stock up on your favorite fall flavors, and have fall themed mugs to drink out of.
Fall Bakeware
One of my favorite things about fall is baking all the fall treats. What’s better than a fall scented candle? The scent of pumpkin loaf baking in the oven. Keeping these cute fall bakeware around your home that’s both functional and decorative is a win.
Seasonal Pillows and Throws
Swap out your lighter summer textiles for heavier fabrics in fall patterns and textures. If you have a neutral sofa, add fall colored throw pillows and blankets to completely (pumpkin) spice it up for fall.
- Patterns: Choose patterns like plaid, houndstooth, or chevrons in fall colors to make the space feel seasonal.
- Layering: Layer different throws on couches or chairs for a cozy, inviting look.
Fall Wreaths
Decorate your front door or interior walls with wreaths made from autumn leaves, berries, or even burlap.
- Materials: Use a mix of faux and natural materials, such as grapevine wreaths adorned with faux berries and leaves, or fresh wreaths with eucalyptus and pine.
- Personalization: Add a personalized touch with a custom sign or monogram to the wreath.
