Fall brings with it the promise of hot chocolate on cool nights, long walks through trees adorned in red and gold, and rustic embellishments anywhere and everywhere. When I think of decorating for the fall, I'm reminded of rich autumn colors and warm wood tones... and how to beautifully incorporate each of these into every room of the home! — Morgan from Pepper Design Blog

Doesn't this little ceramic owl jar just make you smile? He screams fall and deserves a spot in every home — even if just for the season. I love the colors and the quirky wink. Fall decor doesn't get much better than this!

Birds are trendy this year and I can't help but jump on the bandwagon when I find adorable lamps like this. At one time relegated to a dark den, this gold find would shine in a shabby-chic living room, providing just a touch of fall spirit to the space.

For a rustic addition to a living room or bedroom, try this wood mosaic mirror. It loudly announces the coming of fall and is sweet enough to keep up year-round. Just be sure to keep the rest of the surrounding decor light to avoid a lumberjack effect!

Sprinkle warm colors throughout your house for a fall vibe. Better yet, use a wallpaper in a rich pattern to give a punch of bright, autumn orange to your space.

For a more muted wallpaper that creates an equally appealing vibe, try neutral colors in a geometric pattern. The warm wood of the credenza and bright metallic gold of the sunburst mirror play beautifully off of the browns in the wallpaper.

A sheer curtain in a modern print helps to balance out bold wallpaper and patterned fabric accents. This trellis print in a white and brown is perfect for fall, or any time of the year. For an even bigger statement, double up these curtains with a weightier fabric hung on each side. These sheers will let just the right amount of light pass through.

Top off bold patterned wallpaper with softer accents. A classic floral will both stand the test of decorating time and will play off of the various colors in the room. This fabric covering throw pillows or a bench would be a great accent piece to fall wallpaper.

I would complement pops of burgundy and orange fall colors with muted greens and metallic accents. This pillow in a simple, branch design makes a great autumn accent for the couch or an occasional chair.

I can't think of anything cozier for your feet than a soft, flokati rug. Your toes will thank you as the months get cooler and you instinctively avoid tile and hardwood floors walking from room to room.

These rubberwood trees would make the perfect fall sculptural addition to your mantle. When decorating for fall, keep warm, wood tones in mind.

Take a sculptural piece or natural branches and add your own felt leaves in bold, autumn colors for a customized fall decor addition to the center of your dining room table.
As an alternative, let kids decorate paper leaves for the tree or ask guests to pull a leaf off of the tree when they arrive — the flip side is their seat assignment.

Every entryway needs a storage spot suitable for coats and mittens. Even beach dwelling folks could utilize a rustic rack for totes and hats!
This set of hooks feels like it was made for fall, both in the practical and visual sense.

For the rustic and eclectic at heart, these antler pulls are a fun way to pay tribute to months of cooler weather, long outdoor walks bundled in coats and scarves, and the beauty of nature.
Why not install in a strip of reclaimed birch wood and use as winter coat hooks hanging on the wall?

Let's stay with unique fall hardware for the moment: how great is this brass mushroom knob from Anthropologie? I'm imagining it re-purposed as a towel hook in the bathroom or even as a pull on a giant wicker basket full of board games for the family (the perfect fall evening activity).

Bring the outdoors in with a rustic (yet very modern) tree stump side table. An ideal accent for fall, this table provides a functional purpose for beautifully reclaimed materials.
I would pair it with a white modern sofa and an industrial coffee table for the living room.

| Classic white dinnerware is a decorating staple, and when dressed up with autumn-colored linens, makes a quick and easy fall place setting. You can't beat crisp, white dishes year-round! |

Pair your crisp white dishware with fall colors in a variety of orange shades. A rich burnt orange pairs nicely with bright green, while a muted orange is well complemented with tans and yellows. I love the entire lineup of orange linens by Chilewich and would layer several of the napkins and place mats for added depth of color at the dinner table.

I would pair white dishware and orange linens with a suzani runner that evokes the colors of autumn — but in a modern and trendy style. This handmade runner is the perfect addition to my fall dinner party.

A delightful fall evening would include a warm outdoor fire, an over-sized wool blanket for two and a delicious bottle of red wine — beneath, of course, these beautiful hanging candle holders.
Line the edge of an outdoor pergola for a dinner party or hang in the branches of a favorite tree to create your own starry night.
