Warm Up Your Fall! Quick Tips for Autumn Decor
by Colleen Langenfeld
Description: Ideas for decorating your home for autumn.
Enjoying these crisp nights and bright days of
autumn? Bring that beauty into your home with
these quick and easy decor ideas.
- Add or change the wreath on your front door
to feature warm, earthy tones and textures.
- Hang a flower bucket instead of a wreath and
fill with sturdy pinecones and colorful ears of
corn.
- Swap out the summer candles and potpourri jars
in your home with fall scents.
- Whip up an easy autumn centerpiece in a
portable container that you can move from place
to place in your home to add warmth wherever you
are.
- Need an idea for that easy autumn centerpiece
mentioned above? Clear-spray inexpensive gourds
and small pumpkins and toss casually into a
cloth-lined wrought-iron container. Or use a
beautiful bowl. Or a much-loved wicker basket.
You get the idea.
- Move the shepherd's crook from your garden to
near your front door. Hang a decorative fall sign
you purchase from your local discount or craft
store.
- Replace the rug at your front door with one
that reflects the incredible fall colors found in
nature.
- Invest in one decorative tray for each season
or a tray you can embellish. A 'leaf' tray will
look beautiful on your table right up to the
holidays!
- Change the appearance easily of baskets you use
around your home by adding seasonal ribbons and
bows.
- If you use decorative throw pillows, you can
increase their value by using seasonal pillow
covers to change looks fast throughout the year
without needing to store excess bulky pillows.
- Consider a new windchime or windsock for your
front patio. Choose from a neutral or fall theme.
You can do it! Brighten up your home with touches
of the season. A small amount of time invested now
can bring months of pleasant echoes throughout your
family's home!
