Dress up the mantel

A mantel is a classic place to decorate and enhance every season. It is conveniently located at eye level, thus attracting the attention of those in the room. With the temperature dropping and the fire in the fireplace starting to light, now is the perfect time to make this space festive and special. Pretty candles or fall decorations like wishes, pumpkins, garlands, branches and leaves are all great ways to showcase your fall mantel.

Create a front porch display

One of my favorite parts of fall is watching all the fun and festive front porch displays. I love seeing the different arrangements and palettes of pumpkins and gourds. Some choose to decorate with a classic orange pumpkin, while others use white and green pumpkins and multi-colored gourds. It’s fun to switch themes every year and try new things. Mom is another great addition to the steps and comes in a variety of different colors. The fall shades are so beautiful! You can stack pumpkins on the steps to make a pumpkin wreath, or make a pretty flower box display featuring mom and pumpkins. Some people like to place zucchini on their railings or fences or on top of door frames. It’s also fun to stack pumpkins and gourds on top of hay bales. If you like Halloween, you can also add some fun spooky elements to your outdoor display. Personalize your monitor to your taste and make you smile every time you see it!

Decorate with natural elements

Incorporating natural elements into fall decor is a great way to bring the natural beauty of the outdoors into our home. You can cut out an autumn leaf and display it on a table or mantel. You can add pumpkins, gourds and apples to display on a table, mantel or pretty bowl. You can try making a “blooming” pumpkin by adding pretty flowers to it, or make a wreath using corn husks, pine cones, and grass or flowers, herbs, and plants from your garden. Even potted kale can add a pop of color to a front porch display. Pumpkin painting is a fun activity for adults or kids that can be displayed on steps or tables indoors or out. Throw a pumpkin carving party and place jack-o’-lanterns on your front porch for a fun nightly display. You can make a fall terrarium and add succulents, acorns and pine cones. Cut out sunflowers and place them in a pretty vase on the table.

Take advantage of warm fall tones

Warm fall tones give us a cozy, nostalgic fall vibe. These shades mimic the natural foliage of the season – golden shades of brown, red, burnt orange and yellow. If you want to create a festive Halloween vibe, use black and white tones. Fall shades make our homes feel warm and cozy this season! We can incorporate these colors into our homes using natural elements such as pumpkins, gourds, acorns, plants and branches, but also with seasonal pillows, blankets, paintings, candles, and more.

Put light fixtures on your porch

Light fixtures are a fun and easy way to light up your porch at night without having to deal with the hassle of carving pumpkins. You can buy bags and cut them yourself, or buy bags with seasonal themed cuts.These pumpkin lantern It would be fun to use again and again every fall!
