These fall decoration ideas will have your home extra cozy and ready to deck the halls with “autumn leaves and pumpkins please!” I just love this time of year with pumpkin anything and everything everywhere you turn.

I don’t know what it is, but giving the house a fresh makeover as the seasons change, or as a holiday approaches brings me great joy. There’s something about being surrounded by autumn ambiance while making my pumpkin pancakes or sipping on a hot cider that makes life feel pretty darn great. So, let’s look at a few décor ideas. I hope you find some inspiration here!

Fall Decoration Ideas

1. Fall Wreaths

Pretty wreaths are a great fall decoration idea to add festive flair to your humble abode. This time of year, you’ll find wreaths with fall leaves and stems in various shades of red, orange, yellow, brown, gold, and neutral colors. Some have pumpkins, acorns, sweet little bows and more. Your front door isn’t the only place for a fall wreath. Hang them on the wall or a mirror indoors to add warmth to any room.

2. Soft Blankets

Home stores have cozy blankets in various autumn colors to decorate your space for fall. Blanket ladders are one great way to both display and store them. Simply draping your festive fall blankets over a couch, chair or ottoman also makes a space inviting. Fleece, faux fur and other various knits and patterns can be found to suit your taste and fit your space!

 

3. Festive Pillows

Pillows that fit the season are another great fall decoration idea. Look for soft pillows with warm autumn colors and patterns to add some festive fun to your humble abode. Seasonal pillows are great for cozying up a couch, your favorite chair and even your bed.

10. Autumn Lantern

Why not decorate a fall lantern this pumpkin season? Lanterns add warmth to any room and come in various styles and materials, so it’s easy to find something to match your style. Add fall leaves, a candle, and top it with a fall stem or pretty bow. There’s many places to display your lanterns and you can leave them up all year long by simply changing just a few small details.

11. Fall Bouquets

Add fresh bouquets of mums or daisies in red, orange, and golden yellow to a side or console table for some festive flair. Sunflowers also make beautiful fall bouquets. Look for dried leaves, faux autumn stems, wheat bunches, flowers and more and add them to a vase for your dining room table.

 

12. Festive Signs

Fall signs with phrases like “Pumpkin Patch” or “Pumpkin Spice and Everything Nice” are fun fall decoration ideas. Some have a set of several happy autumn phrases, while other are a single word, phrase or quote.

 

13. Pumpkins or Gourds

Pumpkins come in all shapes, sizes, and even colors! They are a great addition to a centerpiece or tiered tray décor. Of course, your front porch begs for pumpkins galore to welcome guests or trick-or-treaters. Put them on shelves, windowsills or even on your desk at work for added fall charm.

 

14. Fall Garland

There are endless options for autumn garlands available. Of course, you’ll find traditional fall leaves and berries, but perhaps little footballs or turkeys are more up your alley. Some have corn, pumpkins, acorns, spooky ghosts for Halloween and more. Hang garland around doorways or place it on a shelf or entertainment center. Add a string of lights for added ambiance.

 

15. Autumn Scents

Complete your fall décor with a lovely fall scent. Candles, wall plugins, and room sprays are available this time of year in delightful scents of apples or pumpkin with cinnamon and spice.
