Touches of Fall Around The House

by | Sep 28, 2016 | Fall

See the touches of Fall around the house by clicking here.It’s my favorite time of year, fall!  It’s the time where the weather cools off a little, the anticipation of the holidays starts mounting, fire pits, and coziness is all around.  I know I sound so typical, but it’s a great time of year.

This is the first fall that we’ve been in our new house and my first fall in Colorado.  I can tell you right now that the Colorado fall colors are the most amazing thing I’ve ever seen.  Decorating for the holidays in our new house is a little tricky though.  I’m not 100% sure where I want things to go or how I want to set things up.  But that’s the beauty of a new house, you get to experiment.

This year I tried to keep our fall decor fairly minimal and incorporate a color I don’t typically decorate with, purple!  You’ll get to see a lot more of that wine hued color on our Fall Front Porch, which I’ll post about next week.

There are also a ton of other ways to subtly decorate for fall.  See if any of the ideas below would work for your home.

  • Add a few pine cones in a bowl or vase
  • Use some sticks in a large urn, or down the center of a table
  • Add some textured throws to your couch, like cable knit or fur, to really amp up the cozy factor
  • Diffuse some fall essential oils so your whole house smells amazing
  • Use apples and mini pumpkins in a large bowl, vase, or basket to decorate
  • Store cut up wood in a large handled basket near a fireplace

What do you think of the touches of fall I used?  Do you think you could incorporate any of these ideas in your own home?

    I love fall, too! I love how cozy all your decor is without being overwhelming. And those multi-colored sunflowers look great with the purple placemats!
