With the cooler weather, families will focus more on indoor entertainment and activates. To make your home feel cozier and inviting you can revitalize your home to reflect the change in season without breaking the bank. To help you transition your décor from summer to fall, below are helpful decorating ideas for your home.
Introduce richer color tones in red, gold, orange, yellow and brown into your décor. A great way to implement the season’s harvest colors is to use inexpensive decorative accessories like vases, accent pillows, throws, floral arrangement and artwork.
Use tactile decorative accents to accessorize the room. For example, you can use a faux fur, chenille or mohair throw on a contemporary sofa, bedding on a platform bed or bath rug in a zen bathroom.
Change in seasons is a great opportunity to rearrange decorative accessories in a room. Rotate decorative accessories like candle holders, books, family portrait pictures and vases throughout the home.
If you have bare floors, add texture and color to the space by investing in a beautiful oriental rug.
Create layers of lighting by using different light techniques to create an effective lighting in a space. Fixtures like chandeliers, pendants and wallsconces provide ample amount of ambient lighting. You can update the look of a chandelier by replacing the shades with new shades that compliment fall’s color palette. A table lamp or a floor lamp is a great source for task lighting. Likewise, the shade on a table lamp can be replaced to coordinate with decorative accessories that depict the season’s color scheme. Accent lighting adds drama to a room by creating visual interest. Use the fireplace to provide both warmth and dramatic lighting. Candles are great decorative accents that also provide ambient light. For the best lighting results use all three lighting techniques to create a cozy room for the season.
