Easy Ways to Upgrade Your Home Decor in Time for Fall
Creating a warm and inviting space to welcome in a new season at home doesn’t have to require a big investment of money or time. In fact, some of our design experts’ favorite seasonal recommendations are simple enough to try on your own just in time for fall! Since Urban Natural also prioritizes sustainable, handcrafted, ethically responsible, organic, and USA-made products to encourage a more environmentally friendly furniture industry, you can be sure our suggestions promote a healthier home for you and your family, too. Whether it’s some quick decor swap-outs, a few small but intentional lighting changes, or investing in a new heirloom-quality piece with quick ship delivery, these easy interior design upgrades will have you ready for crisper autumn days in no time:
Soften up your space with seasonal textiles and accent pillows.
Fall doesn’t just usher in cooler temperatures, but a slower pace of living as well. Gone are those long summer days spent in the sun, and packing every hour of vacation fun; autumn is an opportunity for a much-needed rest and reset. Why not make your living room and bedroom spaces feel especially cozy and worthy of a little extra indulgence?
Swapping out your accent pillows is an easy way to incorporate an earthier color palette and more texture to any space. For a layered look with your accent pillows that’s especially attractive this time of year, our interior designers love to get creative with fabric options, too. Consider the bestselling woven leather pillows from Loloi, or a luxurious velvet with Jaipur Living’s Emerson Bryn pillows.
Coordinating your fall pillows with some fresh throw blankets not only makes a room feel warmer, but also offers another opportunity for a more textured aesthetic. Throw blankets are easy to curl up with for the longer evening hours of fall too; try a super soft alpaca throw from Fells Andes, or a warmer wool option from Jaipur Living for a look that’s both functional and instantly of the season.
Making a textile update in the bedroom is even easier when you opt for one of Jaipur Living’s pillow and throw bundles in rustic earth tones. Our team also recommends Libeco’s heavier coverlet and matching pillow case collections, which blend organic Belgian linen and natural wool. Be sure to check out their Nash style, or the Highland Stripe coverlet with matching pillows for added fall inspiration.
Set the fall mood with lighting, candles, and decorative mirrors
An often overlooked, but key element of interior design is lighting. That’s because the right amount and type of light can either showcase your furniture and decor perfectly, or distract the eye from appreciating an otherwise beautiful space. For autumn, our team encourages softer lighting additions like the washi paper lamps from Asano that offer a more ambient warmth to tables, desks, and corner spaces. Candlelight is another way to bring a particularly stunning seasonal element to your home; even something as simple as a standalone candle from East Fork, with its reusable vessel, can extend a really lovely effect. For a light source that also doubles as art, pair a Moonlight Candelabra in solid walnut wood with hand-dipped taper candles in fall colors from The Floral Society, and you’ll instantly feel the difference. Finally, never underestimate the importance of decorative mirrors as daylight hours grow shorter. They can effortlessly create the illusion of a larger space, while reflecting natural light for a more expansive feel. Looking for a larger option that makes a great addition to any design style? Our interior designers love the contemporary elegance of Ethnicraft’s sustainable PI Floor Mirror.
