Our 7 favorite decor elements for transitioning your home from Summer to Fall

Our 7 favorite decor elements for transitioning your home from Summer to Fall

September's arrival signals the exit of another relaxing warm summer and Fall's entrance to the Northern parts of the world. Children are back in school, and local beaches are slowly emptying of bathers and sun worshippers. A slight whisper of cooler air permeates the atmosphere in the early mornings and late evenings.

Yellow, orange, and crispy brown leaves will soon replace vibrant, green foliage before falling to the Earth in a yearly ritual. We can take many cues from many natural cyclic events, for instance, seasonal changes and oceanic tides, and apply them to daily living.

Significant changes like renovating a home can make one feel enlivened and motivated with fresh paint, new flooring, and an updated bathroom. If you're looking for the same pick-me-up without all the work, then a smaller project, like turning over your everyday decor to autumnal decor, is an easy solution! With a few simple yet refined pieces to revitalize your space, your home is ready for Fall.

Canvas Art for the Great Outdoors

Cooler temps don't necessarily mean spending less time outdoors.
Fall is the best time of year to take a daytime catnap on your patio hammock or invite friends over for an evening around the fire pit, making smores and sipping on a warm beverage.

A quick way to get in the Autumn mindset is updating your outdoor art to match the season. Swap out the palm trees and beach artwork for a soothing earth-toned abstract piece of canvas art. It evokes the season and helps set the mood when friends come over to carve pumpkins instead of a splash in the pool.

Ambient lighting and a Nature-Inspired Stool

Proper lighting in a home is not one size fits all for all times of the year and every type of space. In the warmer months, letting the sunlight in through an open window along with a refreshing breeze is entrancing.

During cooler months, an open window brings more than just sunlight. Bring more light into a room with an additional lamp. A tabletop lamp in seasonal colors adds light and ambiance with the flick of a switch, not to mention it's easy to store during off months. The lampshade in a classic fall color brings the season to the room in a subtle and sophisticated way.

Space is at a premium in any home, even more so when guests or family are over. The lack of square footage can present a challenge, but not if you're savvy.

How about a seat that doubles as an  end table? Our silver-toned sturdy stool will seat extra friends during game night or a place for drinks when the kids have their friends over. The natural tree shape brings your yearly apple picking outing to mind, subtly adding an additional layer of fall seasonal décor.

Storage Options for Your Utility Room

It's sometimes a challenge to keep utility rooms like the laundry room clean and organized. Bottles of detergent line dark corners while a pile of clothing sits in the middle of the floor.

To give your laundry room a decor boost, add a space-saving storage cabinet with a farmhouse aesthetic and a rolling door to hide dryer sheet boxes and leaky detergent bottles. This dark brown wood unit also comes with a row of hooks ideal for hanging damp clothing to air dry.

A large bamboo and metal storage basket can hold at least a load of laundry and address clothing being lost or further stained. This basket will complement the barn door cabinet and easily blend with all color palettes because of its chic natural tone.

It's Time To Wine

With Fall creeping in and the holidays not far behind, it's time to stock up on your favorite cooler weather wines for your guests who plan on coming around for an enjoyable evening by the fire. A natural hued wooden crate wine rack keeps your bottles safe while creating a cozy farmhouse feel in your kitchen.

Small fresh pumpkins and sprigs of fall flowers or colorful leaves arranged on or around your wine rack can further capture the seasonal transition. These small but pivotal objects are the hallmarks of Autumn.

Display Words of Gratitude

You want your home to be a charming sanctuary of enjoyment and a place to unwind and shed the day's stresses for your loved ones. Warm throws adorn chairs and couches, and strategically placed aromatic candles send forth smells similar to grandma's kitchen after a day of baking cookies and pies. Fall is the perfect time of year to create a snuggly nook for sipping cocoa and reading a captivating book.


Thankful, Grateful, and Blessed wall sign surrounded by dainty florals and a charming vintage-inspired wood frame draws on specific aspects of rustic Americana-style design that fits in nicely with classic and traditional furnishings. Typographic pieces have a way of infusing a home with warmth through inviting sentiments.

Curating decor for your space isn't just about aesthetics. Aligning practical and attractive pieces simultaneously with seasonal changes can create a positive home environment by forge bonds with family and nature.
