The start of the fall season is always such a special time of year! Maybe you’re still holding onto the last days of summer, but, if you’re someone who loves fall, you might be thinking about how to cozy up your home for the cooler months. We’ve gathered a few home trends for you to try to get your house ready for autumn!
Add a Moody Paint Color
A fresh coat of paint can make all the difference! While paint isn’t something you’ll want to change season to season, there are some color choices you can make to add an element of warmth that will look good all year long. Go for shades of tan, brown, clay, and other neutrals. Green is also a timeless choice that can help to create a sense of calm in your room. If bold colors aren’t for you, try a warmer shade of white or beige. You can also just do accent walls so the color doesn’t become too overpowering.
Incorporate Natural Elements
Finishes of wood, stone, and other natural materials will help to bring that inviting feeling to your home as well. The Organic Modern look can be achieved through your choice of flooring, cabinets, and the materials for your fireplace surround. If you’re not looking for a full remodel, consider adding smaller pieces like a vintage wood bowl, wood serving trays, linen textiles, and dried flowers or grasses.
Layer in Textures
When the seasons change, it’s time to get cozy, and adding some extra throw pillows and blankets can really set the tone for fall. The textiles you choose will also help shift your color palette to one that is more suited for fall. Try some throw pillows with lots of chunky thread, with a sherpa or boucle type of fabric, and in tones of deep brown, mustard, green, or rust. The colors you choose will ultimately depend on the overall scheme of your home, so go for something that will compliment what you already have. If you’re not into color, stick with your neutrals! It’s your home, and you get to decide what looks and feels best in the space.
Arrange Some Florals
When you think of fall, one of the first things that comes to mind is the changing leaves. They’re so beautiful, and are a great inspiration for interiors in the fall. Instead of going for the plastic, orange fall arrangements that come into stores this time of year, you can get a more elevated look by using dried flowers, branches, or grasses. For a true fall scheme look for oranges and reds, and for a more neutral look try cream, tan, and beige tones. There are many great places to buy dried flowers online like Afloral and Etsy, but if you grow flowers at home, you can make them yourself!
