Simple Fall Decorating Tips to Refresh Your Home
Happy Autumn Friends! With fall officially here we thought we’d share some simple ideas that can refresh your home as you welcome and enjoy all the comforts of the new season. A decor evolution from season to season can be good for your home, as well as beneficial for your well-being, too. You don’t have to buy all new decor or change everything for a new season. Keep decorating easy and enjoy the process. The goal should be to bring together a curated mix of pieces that perfectly reflects you, your lifestyle, and what you love.
Create a layering effect.
Versatile textures like rattan and seagrass can be used year-round. Find ways to add additional layers of these textures to your decor, like placing woven trays on tabletops to add warmth and pull together accessories. Adding wool and linen pillows or throws or window covering can bring on the cozy vibes.
Add warmth with color and visual cues.
Consider adding just a few warmer tones to make your home feel like fall is here. Start by changing out some accessories such as books, art or fabrics to items with colors like darker blue, muted green, terracotta, rust or oatmeal.
Swap out pillows or rugs.
Zippered-covered pillows make it easy to swap out the styles for a new season. Look for extra soft cozy material or a color that brings a hint of fall to your regular palette. Add a rug to bare floors or add a second rug to layer over a sisal rug. Lighter-weight rugs make it easier to swap them out.
Foliage should feel organic.
Start using more “fall-inspired” florals and foliage. Hydrangeas and other foliage have become more muted in tone now, so follow nature’s lead. You can swap out arrangements of faux or fresh flowers to organic foliage from your yard for the season.

We sure hope some of these ideas will inspire you in some way in this new season! It’s always a great time to FALL in love with your home again.
As always, we wish you and yours the very best!
