3 Tips for Decorating in Fall

By following a few, key home-décor principles, you can achieve a distinct autumnal aesthetic in your home. Here are a few tips for decorating in the fall:

ADD SEASONAL ACCENTS

Fall décor is about embracing the natural, organic elements we
associate with the harvest season. Now is the time to sprinkle leaves, pumpkins and gourds, woven baskets, and corn wreaths around the home.

COLORS

This fall, go for a soft color palette that incorporates darker shades. Lean on oranges, yellows, and browns to give your home a comforting feel. Fall florals are a great way to combine colors and will help tie your table decorations together.

OUTDOOR DÉCOR

When it comes to patio and front entry decorations, it`s time to get cozy! Use blankets, thick fabrics, wicker furniture, and—of course—pumpkins for an eye-catching and comfortable outdoor setup. As the days shorten, put up some string lights and lanterns to enjoy the fall evenings outdoors.

A Short Guide to Pumpkin Carving

Nothing says "October" like a porch full of jack-o-lanterns. Before you start carving, check out these tips and best practices.

Whether your garage is a workshop or a storage space, these tips can help you keep it organized while adding value to your home. And who knows—a fully decluttered garage may be just the inspiration you need to pick up a new hobby or kickstart some home renovation projects.

If you're looking to sell your home in the future, an upgraded garage is a major selling point. Buyers love to see things like new garage doors, fresh exterior paint, and freshly epoxied flooring.
