40+ Fall Decoration Ideas for a Cozy Home

Fall is coming and you want to set the mood in your home? Switching to seasonal decorations is one of the best things to do in the fall. And, you don’t actually need much to match your home decor to the fall season.

Change the color palette by adding touches of orange, red, and yellow, throwing in some dark greens and golds for contrast.

Switch out pillow covers and blankets, maybe add some matching art, and get a few seasonal objects like pumpkins, leaves, branches, dry flowers, pinecones…

When it comes to coming up with decorating ideas, try not to go overboard with pumpkins and orange stuff. Make sure to keep a balance between neutral colors and fall colors and use a mix of textures and materials.

Below discover my top picks for fall home decor ideas. These decorating ideas will help you find inspiration to welcome the cozy season in style.

Tablecloth

Switching your tablecloth or table runner for a more fall-colored one is a good way to welcome fall into your home.

You could find one with fall-inspired patterns like fall foliage and pumpkin, but I find it a bit tacky. I would recommend instead to get something pretty basic and enhance it with a nice centerpiece.

Pumpkins

Add some decorative pumpkins to your outdoor autumn decor if you have enough space. You could get real ones but it’s more work to upkeep and might be a bit wasteful. Get different sizes and try arranging them at different levels.

You could also get pumpkins on stakes to add to your potted plants or garden.
