Six Ways to Spruce Up Your Home this Fall

Leaves are changing, the air is getting colder, and the days are getting shorter. It’s the perfect time to transform your home with some autumn charm. Here are six tips from Murray Company, Realtors to add a touch of fall to your living space:

  • Warm Up Your Space

Integrate elements that add warmth and comfort, such as lighting candles, using your fireplace, and adding cozy textiles like throw pillows and blankets. Utilizing your fireplace, if you have one, can be a great way to add literal warmth to your space while also adding a focal point for your family to gather around and enjoy. Additionally, incorporating cozy textiles like throw pillows and blankets in rich colors and textures can contribute to the feeling of warmth and comfort in your living space. These small additions can make a big difference in creating a welcoming environment that is perfect for the fall season!

  • Embrace Fall Colors

Incorporate the rich hues of autumn, like oranges, reds, and yellows, through accent pieces like pillows, rugs, or wall art to create a cozy and inviting atmosphere. You do not have to splurge to do this. You can check out the local thrift store or search online for discounted deals. 

  • Engage the Senses

Another great way to make your home feel like fall is to incorporate some seasonal scents. You can do this by lighting candles in fall scents like pumpkin spice, apple pie, or cinnamon. You can also use a diffuser with essential oils in these same scents instead. If you prefer a more natural alternative, you can boil cinnamon sticks, orange peels, and vanilla extract on your stove. This will allow the aroma to spread throughout your home and can even be a fun activity to engage your kids.

  • Bring the Outdoors In

Bring the outdoors in! Decorate with seasonal foliage, wreaths, and garlands to bring the beauty of fall indoors. Consider incorporating pumpkins, either real or faux, for a festive touch. Or, just check out your local craft store for leaves, sunflowers, and berries to give off the same fall feeling.

  • Spooky Decorations for Halloween

If you and your family participate in Halloween, you can embrace the spirit with fun and festive decorations. Incorporate pumpkins, leaves, and straw for a classic fall look, or opt for unique centerpieces like jack o’lanterns or black cat ceramics. You can add spider webs for a more spooky look as well, depending on your preferences. 

  • Curate Your Collection

Seek out unique Halloween pieces at thrift stores or look for collectibles that can be used year after year. If you have a collection that is Disney themed or Rae Dunn themed, you can incorporate that. Or, you can start a new collection. Illuminate your home with creative lighting, both inside and out, to create a spooky ambiance for trick-or-treaters who will be knocking at your door very soon.

By incorporating any or all of these tips, you can transform your home into a cozy and welcoming space that celebrates the beauty of the season.
