Decorating for Fall: Color
/Decorating for fall is all about color. Is there anything more appealing than mountainsides awash in the vivid hues of fall foliage? Brilliant gold, deep orange, dark red--all can be translated beautifully into lush interior color palettes.
This year decorating for fall is even more fun. With colors boasting evocative names like Autumn Leaf, Dark Cheddar, Red Pear, Baked Apple, Butterscotch, Sugar Almond and Roasted Pecan, who can resist?
Today, let’s focus on that deep Red Pear and other complementary dark tones. Of course, any hues that mimic fall foliage work wonderfully together.
Full-Color Makeover?
While not likely, this color option can create stunning results. If you’re ready for a total change and have the time and the budget, a room in colors like the one shown below will give you the change you’re craving and much more. Gorgeous hues, don’t you think?
Change Small Touches
This is the same color palette as seen above, but this room only required a quick change of color for the season. Toss pillows, a throw, and a rug--just change them out, and you can immediately go from light and airy summer to the warm and cozy look of fall. No-fuss, no muss. Just quick and easy in a few minutes.
Get Creative with Fall Color
Who knew a long-legged bird could bring fall color to all-white spaces? The dark hues of the feathered creature can be picked up in decorative accessories like the vase seen in the adjacent room or with pillows, throws, or tabletop accessories. The colorful wall is one of those removable murals that are readily available right now. They’re easy to put up and take down. More importantly, the wall murals come in a variety of sizes and designs if unexpected birds are not your thing.
So, you see fall decorating doesn’t have to be traditional. It doesn’t have to scream “fall foliage’ to create that wonder autumn feel. Time to light a fire in the fireplace, fill the house with scents of spiced apple cider or frothy hot chocolate and sit back and enjoy the great results of your mission to decorate for fall.
