Today we’re sharing 15 of our coziest fall home decor ideas to bring the season into your home!

How To Add Fall Decor Touches In Your Home

01. Plush Pillows

Add in plush pillows in autumnal colors like rust, mustard, and deep greens. Coordinate them with neutral colors like white, cream and beige that you can use all year long.

02. Simple Centerpiece

Create a simple centerpiece for your living room with small pumpkins, dried leaves, a glass vase and a few sprigs of branches.

03. Warm Blankets

Blankets are always readily available at our house, whether its 92 degrees outside or 9! However, fall is the time to bring out the flannel, the chunky knit blankets, the really fuzzy and cozy ones. Drape them over furniture or tuck them into a basket.

04. Sprinkle Pumpkins

Sprinkle pumpkins around your home- use orange for a pop of color or white for a neutral pallette. Add them entryway tables and benches.

05. Fall Foliage

A budget friendly way to bring in fall decor is to add dried fall leaves, branches and flowers to a vase on a side table, and add a candle for optimal coziness.

06. Cozy Lighting

As the days get shorter and darker, nothing makes a home more warm and inviting than soft, glowy lighting. Add hanging lights or wrap string lights around a tree or window.

07. Autumn Fireplace

Dress up your fireplace mantle with fall foliage, pumpkins, and a basket of cozy blankets. You’ll never want to leave this spot!

08. Flannels and Patterns

Utilize flannels and patterns in pillows, blankets, and decor to create a fall feel. These inject warmth into any space.

09. Tiered Trays

Decorate a tiered tray with touches of fall- mini pumpkins, small foliage and cute fall signs. Add the tray to your kitchen counter or dining table.

10. Fall Arrangement

Add a fall arrangement to your kitchen counter. Some popular fall flowers are; mums, marigolds and hydrangeas. If you’re looking for low maintenance- try artificial! many of the options available now look very realistic.

11. Black and White

Bring in black and white with buffalo plaid blankets and pillows, and pair with black accessories like lanterns.

12. Fall Wreaths

Wreaths aren’t just for doors! Add a fall wreath to your fireplace mantle or above an entryway table.

13. Basket of Apples

Even more so than a visit to a pumpkin patch, I love a fall apple picking day! Here in Georgia we have many apple orchards and I love adding a basket of apples to my kitchen countertop with a checkered towel.

14. Painted Pumpkins

Decorating for fall doesn’t have to be all oranges, reds and browns. Paint fake pumpkins to add a pop of a non-traditional color to your fall decor.

15. Garland

Drape garland over a fireplace, doorway or stair handrail.

Don’t be afraid to use non-traditional colors and elements to create your own cozy fall home decor!

I hope these fall decor ideas have inspired you to embrace the coming season and lean into the coziness that is autumn.
