I love the colours of fall. All of the reds and browns and oranges…I’ve always been drawn towards earthy tones, so I guess it makes sense that fall is my favourite time of the year!
With the first day of fall just around on the corner – falling on September 22nd this year, I’ve been keeping my eye on new fall decorating trends and looking for ways to bring these beautiful warm colours indoors.
Here are some links I’ve come across to blog articles where I have found some fall home décor inspiration! My hope is these ideas will be easy to do, inexpensive and effective, in transforming my home to match the comforting colours of fall!
Pillow covers. Once you have built up a nice stash of pillow covers that fit the inserts for your sofa and bed, it’s easy to give your rooms a quick makeover. Keep an eye out for sales throughout the year to find the best deal. Here are a few ideas for not-strictly-seasonal pillow covers to consider adding to your stash:
Burlap feed sack: great for a rustic fall and winter look, but can be used year-round
Sparkly, metallic hues: perfect for a festive feel
Velvet in rich jewel tones: for cold fall and winter nights
Golden yellow: can be mixed with seasonal oranges and reds in the fall, but also feels fresh in spring and summer.
