Decorating for Fall can be hard for me. Don’t get me wrong. I love the fall as far as the crispness in the air and the changing colors of nature. The reason it is hard for me is because my design aesthetics lean towards a fresh, spring look. Using the existing colors in my home, which consist of:
- Maize yellow
- Spring greens
- Porcelain blues
- Watermelon pinks
- Black and white
I think of the colors of fall that I do enjoy, the textures and the elements that I enjoy. Then I make a list!!!
- Wooden bowls
- Wooden turned candlesticks
- Wooden cutting boards
- Clear apothecary jars filled with beans in black, white and split peas for my pop of green.
- Pomegranates with their wonderful pinky red color
- Eucalyptus wreaths or leaves for the soft green
- Cream colored candles
- Basil colored candles
- Black silhouettes
- Crisp red and green apples
- Brass candlesticks that glow
- Pumpkins and gourds in white and greens
- Touches of cheetah print in pillows or throws
- Black lampshades in place of my crisp white shades
- Mums in white, purples and golden yellow
- Clay pots
- Artwork with black backgrounds or black frames
- Textural baskets
- Bakelite silverware
- Lanterns
- Nuts and acorns
- Branches in vases
- Leaf prints
What would you put on your list?
