Let’s take a closer look at this year’s favorite fall decor ideas to get you in the mood for autumn!
#1: Mix & Match
Gone are the days when all your furniture had to come from the same “style family.”
This fall, it’s all about combining the very best modern and traditional furnishings for your own personal style. So go ahead and show off that quirky vase, Grandma’s rocking chair or those embroidered pillows your mom stitched when you were in grade school.
The key is to look for quality new furniture that complements those beloved heirlooms you already have.
- Add a stylish couch to breathe new life into a retro coffee table.
- Invest in a comfy bedroom set to go with those old side tables.
- And when it’s time for dinner, dress up that new dining table with vintage candlesticks.
2: Embrace Lived-In Elegance
Understated sophistication is the name of the game this fall.
Popular elements like velvet, linen and warm neutrals exude a refined, relaxed approach to daily life. Start with durable, well-crafted furniture that’s built to last. Customize with soft florals and earth tones. Accent your spaces with nature-inspired decor, traditional table lamps and fresh autumn flowers in a vase on the table.
And oh, by the way, your metal accents don’t all have to match! Create a personal, eclectic decor by pairing shiny brass candlesticks with sophisticated black metal chairs. Give any room in the house a facelift by swapping out cabinet hardware and light switch plates. Decorate living rooms, kitchens and dining areas with metal vases and figurines.
3: Draw Inspiration from Nature
Few things are as invigorating as the beauty of fall foliage. Nature comes alive with red and gold leaves rustling in the crisp autumn breeze.
Bring the best of the outdoors in with muted earth tones, bright colors and warm woods. Cozy neutrals are making a comeback this year, as cool grays give way to classic terracotta, rich copper and enchanting forest greens.
Warm wood finishes give your home a comforting atmosphere for entertaining. Look for coffee tables, side tables and dining chairs in popular materials including oak and walnut. Decorate your dinner table with dried fruits, pinecones and other nature-inspired decorations.
4: Load Up on Texture
Cushy fabrics, luscious layers and soothing curves lend a relaxing ambience to your home.
Choose a timeless fabric like velvet, linen or super-soft boucle. Boost your comfort quotient even more with a chunky blanket or nap-worthy throw pillow. Layer varying textures for a casual, eye-pleasing contrast.
Here are a few more fantastic ways to play with texture this fall:
- Woven baskets add a naturalistic touch as well as a convenient place for remote controls, books or old magazines.
- A few accent pieces in rattan or cane keep the outdoorsy vibe going.
- Finally, soften up your space with curves. Great options include round tables, oval mirrors and gently sloping chair backs.
5: Cheer Up with Warm Color
If you think fall decor means drab colors, think again!
Bring those earthy neutrals to life by pairing them with bright orange, invigorating turquoise or vibrant yellow. Choose colorful artwork and funky pillows in a rainbow of feel-good shades to liven up your space. Mix in a few black accents for a dramatic, showstopping contrast, and decorate with fall foliage, seasonal gourds and cheerful mums.
