The fall season is quickly creeping upon us! How exciting! That means harvest season, pumpkin spice, apple pies, and bursts of warm, rich colors like burnt orange, burgundy, yellows, browns, greens, cozy sweaters, crisp weather, and fall decor! What’s not to love?

I’ve made it a personal goal of mine to bring each season into my home by decorating to match it. I may have gone on a shopping craze at one of my favorite home decor stores, but boy, was it worth it! Here’s how you can bring the fall season into your home as I share some of the things I picked up!

FRAGRANCE

Pumpkin spice, apple pie, etc. These were some of the first things that came to mind before the fall decor haul. Those comforting and yummy smells are not strangers to this season. Indulge your senses and create nostalgia. Snag some gourmand-scented candles, form an essential oil blend, add potpourri to a glass vase, and it will feel like it whenever you step into your home. I purchased a pumpkin spice candle, and the throw is so strong that it doesn’t need to be lit to fill the house with fragrance.

I filled a glass vase with potpourri and placed it at the center of my dining table.

WARM LIGHTING

We are slowly drifting into that season where the days are getting shorter, and nightfall is earlier—incorporating warm lighting throughout your house using battery-operated candles or real ones to mimic that feeling.

I purchased some candle holders and added floating candles and some timed battery-operated candles.

COLOR SCHEMES

Fall is full of color. Make a mental note of color schemes that include reds, oranges, and yellows, and include these colors into the fabrics of your home and accent pieces.

THROWS & THROW PILLOWS

Something about the new crisp weather calls for a certain level of coziness and warmth. Whip out throw blankets you have put away, or buy more with the color scheme and get underneath! Think soft and furry. 

TIP: If you already have an abundance of throw pillows, you can invest in seasonal throw pillowcases to switch out every season. 

I picked up some maple pillowcases, and I can’t get enough of how cute they are.

CURTAINS

Cool weather means drafts, and curtains are a great way to add a dramatic effect to any space while providing warmth. When getting curtains for fall, think of heavy fabrics that provide that warmth and a glamorous feel. Fabrics such as velvet, silk, and wool lend to the heaviness and opulence we speak of.

FLORAL

Who doesn’t love flowers and/or greenery to liven up an atmosphere? Get fresh or dried flowers with those rich colors and a colorful wreath, or opt for an artificial garland you can drape wherever you’d like. Pampas grass, yarrow flowers, and eucalyptus are all great options.

DINING TABLE

This is a season of abundance! With harvest and Thanksgiving right around the corner, food has emerged. You will probably spend more time in this room In the next few months or might be open to entertaining. Curating an aesthetically appealing table will undoubtedly draw your guests’ eyes.

Think:

Table runner

Accent pieces

Placemats

Candles

And anything else you can think of

I purchased a gold table runner, gold candleholders, floating candles, and glass pumpkin accent pieces and filled a wide-mouthed cylinder vase with fall-colored potpourri. 

ACCENT PIECES

Consider the theme and let your personality shine through with the arrangement of these pieces. Pumpkins, apples, pine cones, anything that comes to mind!
