It’s fall, and if you’re dreaming of flannel shirts, crisp mornings, and cozy fires, we have a few fall decor ideas to help you celebrate this season in style. From autumn interior design tips to Do-It-Yourself projects fit for adults and kids, you’ll want to save this post for years to come.

Introduce Colors and Texture to Spruce Up Your Spaces

It’s time to break out the warm, earthy color palettes. Think rustic oranges, deep reds, and the various hues of brown brought by the falling leaves. These colors are perfect for a cozy fall aesthetic to welcome neighbors, friends, and family as we kick off the holidays (and football season).

Invest in textures this fall. Textural contrasts, like a heavy woolen throw against a smooth leather couch, can add warmth and depth to your interiors. Mix in cozy fabrics like velvet and fleece, perfect for those cool autumn nights. Feeling a little crafty? Check out HGTV’s 50 DIY Fall Wreath Ideas for inspiration.
