Bring Your Home Into Fall With These Dazzling Decorating Ideas

Incorporating autumn design elements into your home doesn’t have to be difficult. Here are just a few simple ideas that can bring fall indoors and add seasonal beauty to your home.

1. Produce a Pinecone and Pumpkin Arrangement

For a centerpiece that takes pumpkins beyond Halloween and into late autumn, use pinecones as surrounding design components. Put a large pumpkin inside a shallow basket and place pinecones around the base. The pinecones can even be sprayed with metallic shades to add extra color to the display.

2. Spray Your Traditional Harvest Wreath

To cheaply and easily update your longstanding harvest door decoration, why not add a layer of metallic spray paint? Colors such as brass, gold and copper ensure you’re on-theme but also add a note of subtle glitz.

3. Light Up Your Environment With Pumpkin and Gourd Lanterns

Cut a hole in a pumpkin or other gourd top, scoop the insides out, and arrange a candle inside the space for a warm, fall-fitting glow. Opt for different shaped and sized lanterns to create a more pleasing aesthetic.

4. Create an Autumn Bouquet

Some of the season’s greatest decorative elements are also the simplest: fall leaves in a variety of deep reds, burnt orange, and bright yellow hues. Display faux versions from your local arts and crafts store, or use several snipped off tree branches from your yard.

5. Craft an Updated Cornucopia

In lieu of the traditional basket cornucopia, form a modern version with tulle netting. Fold a square piece of tulle into a cone and fortify it with glue. Add in fall produce such as pears and apples and tie a thick piece of ribbon around it all. Burlap ribbon is an especially good choice for this design, the colors pairing perfectly with the fall produce.

6. Play With All Sorts of Color Palettes

Don’t be afraid to venture outside the box when incorporating autumn hues in your interior. Try deep colors such as navy, emerald green, purples, and more. Play with a few colors – such as a pairing of purple and green, and see how many different items you can incorporate.

7. Add Unique Touches All Over

Hang fall-themed design details such as miniature crabapples from your lighting fixtures. Make arrangements inside vases with fake fall produce and twigs for an unexpected display.

8. Put Miniature Pumpkins on Display

Mix the homey, harvest design aesthetic with a classy and sophisticated look by putting miniature pumpkins in a cloche or bell jar. Add theme-appropriate adornments around the centerpiece to round out the composition: flowers, leaves, branches, etc.

9. Employ Your Planter

It’s not necessary to hide away an empty planter – set an aptly sized pumpkin on top and it becomes a unique and beautiful pedestal.

10. Use White Vases

White foliage holders look particularly gorgeous when paired with fall leaves. Create a fantastic and natural arrangement by using a number of different sized and shaped white vases filled with a variety of colored foliage.
