 Fall Living Room

After a long summer full of outdoor fun, many people find themselves retreating to their living rooms during their free time in the fall. This makes now the perfect time for some cozy living room upgrades. Here are a few things our real estate agents recommend doing to create a warm and inviting sanctuary inside your home. 

  • Bring Natural Elements Indoors
    Incorporating some of fall's hallmark natural elements into your living room design will make the space feel like a snug hidden grotto tucked away in the wilderness. Pour some acorns or pine cones into a vase, tie some dried plant stalks together into a festive bunch, or snip a bouquet of colorful chrysanthemums from your garden beds. You can also add furniture and decor items made from natural materials like wood, stone, wicker, rope, and rattan to your living room to achieve a similar look.

  • Accent with Warm Colors
    Fall colors all fall on the warm side of the color wheel. Bringing those warm tones into your interior design can evoke autumn vibes without making the room feel stuck in time when the season changes. Add some small warm-colored decor items like a vase or cushion slipcover to your living room or go big with an accent wall in traditional harvest tones. 

  • Put Up Some Seasonal Wall Art
    Changing up your wall art is an easy way to bring fall tones and imagery into your home. Put up a few new prints of landscapes full of fall foliage, cozy domestic scenes, or any subject with lots of rich reds, oranges, yellows, and browns. You'll instantly make your living room feel homey and welcoming. When the season is over, just swap out the prints for a quick update.

  • Use Scents
    Scents are an underrated way to build a specific atmosphere in a room. Place a few scented candles or wallflowers in your living room, using them as an additional source of soft light in darker parts of the space. You can find plenty of comforting fall scents like pumpkin, apple, and cinnamon in stores right now. If you go with candles, though, be sure to never leave them unattended while lit.

  • Decorate with Blankets and Throw Pillows
    Cool fall weather got you spending more time indoors? Add a few soft throw pillows and blankets to your living room to create the perfect place to curl up and stay a while. On top of their functional purpose, these items can also serve as decorative accents in your interior design. Choose highly textured fabrics like velvet, heavy knit, and corduroy to give the room more dimension and visual interest while preserving that cozy fall vibe.

  • Add Mirrors
    With less natural light coming in during fall's shorter days, your living room may start to feel small and cramped. Placing a few mirrors in strategic spots will counteract this problem by reflecting any light in the room back into the space. Pay special attention to corners and shadowy areas that tend to fade into the background. Your room will feel much more open without any of the harshness of direct artificial light. 

Upgrading your current living room is a great temporary solution, but these small changes may not satisfy you in the long run. That's where we come in.
