How to Decorate for Fall

With a world of options to decorate according to your taste and style, your imagination is the only limit. Here are our tips for easy and eye-catching fall decorating ideas.

Use Color, Pattern and Texture

When decorating for fall, your chosen color palette is the foundation of your décor, and patterns and textures give it life. Consider these ideas when selecting your fall palette:

• Limit yourself to two or three accent colors.
• Work with a neutral canvas by painting the room's walls in a warm, off-white color.
• Incorporate plaid — a fall favorite — through blankets, throws and cushions in living rooms and bedrooms.
• Bring cable knit, houndstooth and tweed textures into the fold through pillows and throws.

Incorporate Vintage Finds

Vintage items work as décor no matter the season, but they complement fall particularly well. Some ways to decorate with these pieces include:

• Create striking floral arrangements using old copper containers that pair perfectly with autumn's colors.
• Arrange coffee table displays on old wooden trays, including amber bottles, candles or apples.
• Source vintage glassware from an antique store to add interesting shapes, patterns and colors.
• Introduce an old brown suitcase as part of a table display, creating a rustic feel and another surface to decorate.

Introduce an Autumnal Feel Using What You Have

There's a good chance you have plenty of items around the house or yard that you could use for your fall decorating needs. Some ways you can repurpose these items are:

• Welcome guests with an arrangement of lanterns, pumpkins and terracotta planters just outside your front door.
• Add pine cones, pumpkins and apples to your mantel or table displays.
• Use dried flowers and branches from your garden as décor elements.

Get Creative and Craft Your Own Fall Décor
