Fall flair

Fall has arrived and we are surrounded by beautiful colours of leaves, soothing sounds of the wind, sweet smells in the air and the soft cozy throws and clothing.

Here are 5 tips to get your home ready for fall.
 
Start with your entrance...
 

Hang a fall wreath on your door. Fall mums make a colourful eye catching entrance. They are inexpensive and you can plant them in the garden before the frosts come and they will be gorgeous next season.
You can also put faux leaves and flowers mixed in with the real ones and it will give you a fuller look.




Accessorize with warm tones.

A great way to incorporate fall into your home is by using warm tones in your accessories. Gold, orange, red and brown.







Leaves

The main theme for the season is leaves. You can decorate anything with them, from walls to pillows, plates or just have them around the house.







Candles

Candles bring warmth to a room even without being lit. There are so many autumn scents that give your home that yummy smell. You will never want to leave.
 





Pillows and throws

Nothing is nicer than cuddling up on a cozy chair in front of a roaring fire with a soft throw. Knitwear or faux fur are nice choices and add texture.


 
 
Most of all, enjoy every minute with the people you love.  Good food, good wine and lots of laughs.
