With summer coming to an end (you will be missed), now’s a great time to start planning and shopping for fall home decor. Sure, it might get cold outside but that doesn’t mean you can’t keep your apartment space warm & cozy with these simply & quick tips!
1. It’s All About the Layers
Not only does adding layers with things like throw blankets & pillows provide depth and texture, it’s also a great way warm up your space literally and figuratively. I love this cozy throw from Etsy for keeping warm.
2. Pick the Right Fall Home Decor Colors
It’s not secret that we experience our surrounding with our eyes & fall decor is no exception. Use no-damage temporary wall paper to add colors that are rich and warm like burgundy, dark greens and warm browns.
3. Add A Little Candlelight
Whether you chose to safely burn real candles or you go for artificial candles, adding candlelight to a room bring out the most comforting, warm and nostalgic ambiance. I love this everlasting candle from Everlasting Candle Co.
4. Bring Nature Inside
Adding natural elements, like wood catchall dishes or trays, to your space can bump up your warmth factor while also giving you more options for organization. Win-win!
5. Find Your Fireplace Fit
If you’re lucky enough to have a cute fireplace, give it a good clean and use it this fall. If not, you can always opt for a faux fireplace or even a tabletop fire pit, designed for indoor use, on your coffee table.
6. Use Curtains To Keep The Cold Out
We love thick curtains for the cooler months because not only do they come in heavier fabrics, like velvet, they also add extra insulation to windows. That means you get to keep you space cozy & stylish!
7. Treat Your Feet
A strategically placed area rug to keep your toes warm? Sign me up! This multifunctional piece of decor is just what you need to warm up your apartment.
8. Warm Up The Walls
Adding wall art suited to your fall decor gives you the chance to change up your indoor scenery as well as bring some depth & personality.
9. Seasonal Wreaths
Nothing tell the world that you’re ready for fall quite like a wreath at the front door. I mean, I guess an IG post would work too but this is just more fun!
10. Hot Beverage, Anyone?
If you’ve already got a bar cart, you could consider adding cider to the mix. If you’re starting from scratch, designate a corner of your kitchen or living area for hot teas, seasonal coffees & hot cocoa. Throw in some cute mugs for good measure!
11. Shop For Knits
Natural fibers, much like natural elements from outside, really add to the fall decor aesthetic while warming up your space. This is the time to practice that macrame art you been meaning to get around to!
12. Change Out Those Bulbs
Switching over from white light bulbs to more warmer options like soft white or yellow is a great option for warming up your space. Consider just changing out accent lamps for a more toned down feel!
13. The Nose Knows
Sugar, spice & everything nice! Warm up the room with scents like cinnamon, clove, orange, vanilla and pine. If choosing candles, be sure to go for non-toxic options or give these room sprays a try!
With this list, you’re well on your way to making your apartment the warmest & coziest place, second only to your bed on Monday morning! Fall is right around the corner so get a jump on getting you place ready!
