Hi Julia!
How are you doing? I hope you are enjoying the cold crisp winds of the fall season.
This time I am writing to you because we are planning to give our home a small makeover. We love decorating our home for each season, and since we are all into the fall season, I feel it is the perfect time to enjoy the cozy feels of the season. Also, fall is the season of warm colors and indoor hangouts. So can you help me out with some ideas to get my home fall-ready?
Love,
Emma.

From warm colors schemes to layers and patterns, there is a lot you could do to make your home fall-ready. So, keep scrolling to find out a few simple switches to give your home a fall makeover.Â
Add a Wreath at your front door:
The versatile wreath makes a perfect fall decorating piece! You can DIY your wreath by grouping the same type of leaves and creating clear sections. Add a mix of dried flowers or leaves and fresh green leaves and herbs like thyme, sage, or rosemary.
Colors like red, brown, washed-out green will give you the true feeling of the season. But you can go in with brighter colors with dried leaves if that suits your taste.
Add a Throw or two:
One of the quickest ways to make it feel like a fall in your home is adding some throws to your space.
You can straightaway pick out the coziest of throws and drape them over chairs or at the end of your couch. It will give you all the warm and comfy fall vibes within no time.
Also, now you have another reason to curl up on the couch!

Is your home fall-ready without the warm fall aroma? Of course, not. Adding in some candles around the room fills in the air with a sweet, warm smell without you running out of baking supplies.
You can try some rich fall scents like pumpkin spice, amber, cinnamon, and many more. It brings in the perfect fall aura to make your space warmer and inviting.
Set the mood with warm shades:
Warm colors are the best to capture the autumnal feels in your home. Even if you are not planning for a full-fledged renovation, just retouch your space by adding a new coat of warm colors to your living room, bedroom, or any other spot in your home.
In case you are looking for some bright shades, you could go in with colors like red or burnt orange. These are some of the apt colors for the fall season that instantly transforms your living space! You could also try the Warm Amber shade. It is such a fun, happy and bright color that will brighten up your mood in no time.
Bring in some Seasonal Decor:

It is time to change the same old decor at your home. Fall is the perfect time to replace your everyday decoratives, and the best thing is that you can DIY most of these items from things around you. And you do not have to be a professional to pull off these decor items.
You can use things that are available around you like – pumpkins, colored leaves, flowers, etc. You can make the best use of pumpkins from the Halloween party by using them as a vase. Take it a little higher by painting the outside in beautiful patterns. You can DIY your centerpiece too! Go in with a few bundles of dry wheat and tie them using colorful strings. Cover them using glass cloches and place them on your table. You can replace the wheat bundles with pine needles or pine cones once the winter hits.
So, these were some of the ways you could make your home fall-ready. I hope this helps, Emma. Do let me know in the comments which is your favorite pick among them!
