Fall Decoration Ideas for the Living Room

Throw Blankets

Pick a seasonal color that will contrast with your couch color, play with textures, and get pillow covers that match the color palette you’ve picked for your fall decor.

Throw Pillows

Welcome the cozy season with a comfy couch – adding some fall-colored pillows to your fall living room decor can make such a big difference!

Candles

Adding a few scented candles can help set the mood for fall. From pumpkin-spice smells to cinnamon, find scents you like and remind you of fall.

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.

Fall Decorations

When it comes to fall decorating ideas, add some fall-inspired objects to your shelves, mantel, or coffee table. It can be white pumpkins, leaves, garlands, but also a vase with dried flowers or branches and acorns or pinecones.

Centerpieces

For the perfect fall decor, decorate your dining room table with a fall-inspired centerpiece.

Cute Fall Things for the Kitchen

Here are a couple of fall-inspired things to bring the season’s spirit inside your kitchen.

Fall Front Porch Ideas

A fall decor makeover wouldn’t be complete without adding some decorating touches to your front door and outdoor space. Keep it simple with a seasonal fall wreath or go all in with garlands and pumpkins everywhere.

Doormat

Switch out your doormat for a seasonal one and/or add an orange and white plaid rug under it.

Wreath

Add a fall-inspired wreath to your front door.

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.

Dry or Artificial Flowers

Another great autumn decorating idea is to add big vases in darker colors like brown or dark green with dry flowers and fake plants.

You could also use seasonal fall flowers such as mums, daisies, petunias, or sunflowers.

Leaves Garland

If you want to go all in, add a fall-colored garland with leaves all around your door frame, pillars, or railing (make sure to measure how much you need before ordering).

Outdoor Pillows

If you have furniture on your front porch, add some fall-colored pillows.
