The most beautiful seasonal decoration – what does it include?
Color palette for autumn decoration
Autumn is the season of bright colors and bountiful harvests that can serve as a source of inspiration. When choosing a palette for seasonal decor, remember the colors of nature. They range from dark gold, coral red, pumpkin orange and even sandy browns and beige tones.

Basic elements of autumn decoration
textiles
The main recommendation of designers is to have three variants of textiles in the house: for spring/summer, for autumn and for winter. By replacing pillowcases and blankets in the living room, curtains in the bedroom and tablecloths in the dining room, you can create a completely new atmosphere and mood in the house.
Choose pillowcases with white, beige, light brown or dark orange patterns. Play with textures and patterns by combining flannel fabrics, corduroy and burlap. Small buttons are ideal for decorating the covers. It only takes a few minutes to change the covers, and the old ones won’t take up much space in your wardrobe and will last for many years.
The easiest way to update the decor of the living room is to put a plaid in the color of the fallen leaves on the sofa. No matter the color or style, the mere presence of a plaid gives any room a cozy feel. Of course, plaids are not just for decoration in autumn. On cold evenings, they transform into a very functional detail that allows you to comfortably watch your favorite TV series.

Vintage items
Vintage frames, family photos, yellowed pages of old books – many vintage items are associated with the fall season. You can find them in the attic of the family home, at the flea market or in an antique shop – vintage in all its forms is the most striking interior design trend of our time. Old things are no longer thrown away, but rather carefully preserved, restored, reissued and sold at auctions. Sea buckthorn branches in a vase from “Grandma’s” set is a simple way to quickly create an autumn composition on the table. A record player is also a great way to add a touch of romance to any interior.

Candles
Candles are a great way to warm the house when the weather outside isn’t so pleasant, and they also provide an unobtrusive source of diffused light in the (increasingly lengthening) evening hours. Live flames are traditionally associated with coziness and the right scent can lift the mood. Pay attention to the size and shape of the candles so that they fit the area you want them to complement. Candles are also an important accent in interior design. Designers make them in figured containers, patterned boxes or glass cups. Spicy notes are very popular in autumn. Choose candles that smell like cinnamon, cardamom, and citrus.

Autumn wreath
An autumn wreath is one of those decorative elements that can last for several years. It can be made from dried flowers or artificial leaves, pine cones and decorative pumpkins. You can buy the base for it in any flower shop. The front door can be decorated with a large wreath, the elements of which can be found literally underfoot. The base for the wreath should be neutral, then you can change the accents depending on the season and in winter replace the small pumpkins with pine branches and Christmas balls.

Ceramics and glass
Autumn is the perfect opportunity to renew your plates and cups. Simplicity, naturalness and elegance are now in vogue. The once popular lush ceramic tableware is replaced by imitation of natural materials and minimalism, with color accents. Graphic ornaments, wavy lines and other geometric figures are fashionable. You can create a composition on the table from glass vases of the same color, but of different heights and volumes. Handcrafted terracotta and clay vessels are best combined with wooden bowls. The key is the tactile appeal and the ostentatious imperfection of the lines, which highlights the handcraft of the piece.
