Rich Toned (Faux) Florals

Layered Textures
Layering textures is an enduring decor option because of how easy it is to change up with each season. As the temperatures begin to drop, look for chunky throw blankets that lend coziness and style to any room in your home, perhaps in fall foliage-inspired hues.

Natural Hues and Earthy Tones
Fresh paint is always a reliable way to welcome the feeling of fall into your home. Let nature inspire your colour choices this season: think earthy, sandy tones, stone greys or deep olives.

Abstract Artwork
Whether you’re looking for the finishing touch in one of your rooms, or simple decor inspiration, abstract art is the answer. The options are infinite, from bold geometric patterns to dreamy watercolours. Bonus points if the art piece features a timeless, nature-inspired hue, as featured on the previous slide.

Vintage or Distressed Furniture
Vintage, distressed or reclaimed wood furnishings instantly add a touch of warmth and comfort to any room. If eco-consciousness is top of mind, upcycling furnishings is always a great choice, plus there are new furniture options that use reclaimed materials, such as this rustic-look nightstand.
Hensley Reclaimed Wood Nightstand, Pottery Barn, $630.

Heavyweight Drapery
Lush, heavyweight drapery will add a hit of drama to any fall decor scheme while also being ultra-functional (read: insulating and light-blocking). Select a moody, gothic velour material or opt for a lush chenille or thick textured linen.
Belgian Heavyweight Textured Linen Drapery, Restoration Hardware, from $225.
Goodee
10 / 10
Statement Lamps
Adding style and warmth to a room with a statement lamp is a trend that extends beyond the fall season. Consider these artistic yet practical items in your upcoming decor project, from sculptural lamp designs for your living room to clever desk lamps for your home office.
