4 Ways to Decorate for Fall for the Reluctant Seasonal Decorator

by Lindsay Ballard on October 7, 2014 14 Comments

I am a reluctant seasonal decorator.  I absolutely love the thought of decorating my home to usher in each season.  But, the thought of putting things out only to be taken down and stored a few weeks later brings my lazy side to the forefront.

This year, I haven’t even started adding any Fall decor into my home.  In all honestly, we are still wearing shorts and flip flops in Central Texas, so it’s hard to embrace the new season.  I have been thinking about it, though, and I have come up with some ways to help me decorate for Fall without feeling like I’ve gone overboard.

In case you also consider yourself a reluctant seasonal decorator, I offer you four ways to embrace Fall in your home:

1.  Start Small

When seasonal decorating feels overwhelming, start small.  Often times, the best styled rooms just give a hint of the season at hand.

Take this gorgeous living room by Julia at Cuckoo 4 Design.  She usually has some mini disco balls in the coffee table vignette.  By replacing them with some mini pumpkins, she was able to give a nod to Fall without moving around everything in her room.

Maybe you’ve fallen out of love with your home.

The switch from kids home for the summer to back to school is a huge lifestyle change for our homes. Whenever your lifestyle changes dramatically it’s easy to feel a bit disconnected from your home.

I want you to fall back in love with you home!
