When Can You Put Up Fall Decorations?
Some start within the first two weeks of September, while others for the weather to change. A good rule of thumb is to begin with your interior fall décor in late August or early September.
Dressing Up Spaces for Fall
Transitioning your décor from summer to fall is all about swapping in new textures, accents, and foliage that reflect the cozy feel of the season.
Front Door & Entryway
Choose faux pumpkins and potted flowers with bronze, gold, brown, and orange foliage to draw the eye and brighten your entryway.
Living Room
Decorate with autumnal elements such as gourds, twigs, and wreath, then add a statement wreath to infuse cheery bursts of color into your fall mantel décor.
Kitchen
Simple touches can make your kitchen a comfortable refuge for cool autumn evenings. Themed greenery bring the season’s beauty indoors.
Outdoor Areas
Create an outdoor haven that reflects the warmth of your interiors. Group together flameless candles of varying sizes for gentle illumination and arrange pumpkin décor for a refined display.
