Fall is such a cozy time of year for home décor. Adding a few things here and there can completely transform your home from Summer to Fall.

1. Fall Decorate your Porch: Add a lot of pumpkins and some seasonal flowers, don’t forget the scarecrow!

2. Decorate One Area: Pick one table to add a lot of décor to it. This is a great way to keep your Fall décor simple and minimal.

3. Fall Kitchen Décor: Add some pumpkins and twinkle lights to your kitchen shelf. Seasonal flowers also add color without adding clutter.

4. Add a Fall Seasonal Sign: You can easily make your own fall sign with the paint color of your choice, or you can print out a cute Fall saying, place it in frame and place it in your home.

5. Fall Wreaths: Fall wreaths are also an easy DIY project. Either collect Fall colored leaves and/or some mini pumpkins and add them to a wreath base.

6. Autumn Colored Pillow Covers: Add the feel of Autumn to your home by switching out your pillow covers and throw blankets.

7. Decorate a Side Table: Find one area in your home that is somewhat blank and add a wreath in orange and yellow. It doesn’t take much to add the feel of Fall to your home.

8. Pumpkins: When all else fails just add some real pumpkins to your home. The great thing about real décor is you don’t have to stare at it all year long.

9. Dried Leaves & Flowers: Adding some Fall colored natural dried leaves and branches is a great way to decorate without spending a lot of money.

10. Orange Garland: Add a simple garland to one area of your home. Just a small pop of orange or rust color can give you that Fall feels without going overboard.
