10 Creative Fall Decorating Ideas to Cozy Up Your Home
As the leaves begin to change and the air gets crisp, it's time to embrace the beauty of autumn in your home decor. Here are 10 creative fall decorating ideas to bring warmth and charm to your living space.
1. Pumpkin Vase
Give your pumpkins a new purpose by turning them into elegant vases. Hollow out a white pumpkin and fill it with seasonal flowers like fall foliage and mint green leaves for a lovely centerpiece. To ensure your arrangement lasts longer, place the flowers in a vase of water that fits snugly inside the pumpkin.

Repurpose an old rake into a unique fall decoration for your door. Use faux or real branches to adorn the rake, depending on your preference. A timeless mix of evergreen and bittersweet branches works well and can carry you through to winter. Tie a piece of twine around the bottom and hang it on your door for a rustic, yet charming, welcome.
