The crisp in the air signals that fall has arrived in all its glory. If you were waiting for more temperate weather in the Piedmont Triad to step out and decorate your home, now is the perfect time to load up on some autumn décor. Grab a plush, warm sweater and check out these fall decorating ideas!

Make A Wreath

Give your front door some flair with a festive fall wreath. With a little work and a trip to your local craft store, you can create something unique. If arts and crafts aren’t your cup of tea, many local stores carry a wide selection of wreaths for every budget.

Add Pumpkins

Adding pumpkins and gourds to your front porch can create a festive harvest look. As pumpkins and squashes come in a variety of shapes and colors, you can mix more muted hues with bright oranges for a pop of color. If you want to keep your younger children entertained and involved, have them pick different designs for jack-o’-lanterns and stack them together as a totem pole.

Warm Things Up

Break out some blankets, throws, and rugs to add a cozy feel to your home. A good idea is to sprinkle in touches of buffalo plaid by swapping out pillowcases and customizing the tablescape with runners and napkins in the color scheme.

Get Ready To Rock

Fall is the season of leaf-peeping and hot pumpkin spice latte. To make sure you squeeze the most out of these gorgeous days outdoors, get a pair of rocking chairs and adorn them with cushions or a throw over the back of them in shades that complement your front porch décor.
