Fresh Ideas for Fall Decorating For Every Room in the Home | The Best Non-Halloween Fall Decor

Fall is the season of warm hues, cozy blankets, and the comforting scent of pumpkin spice wafting through the air from your favorite candle. As the leaves change and the temperature drops, it's time to embrace autumn. At Lavender Fields, we've curated a collection of fall decor to bring the beauty of the season to every corner of your living space. Let's explore some fresh ideas for fall decorating, catering to every room in your home.

 Fall Kitchen Rugs

Spruce up your kitchen for fall with our collection of kitchen rugs. Opt for warm, earthy tones with plenty of texture to cozy up  your kitchen floor. Find a cotton rug or polypropylene rug for washability and durability for this spill-prone, high-traffic area. 

Designer Tip: 2x3' is best for in front of your sink, or go up to 2.5' x 8' if you want the rug to span from your sink to your stove.

Embrace the Transition: Preparing Your Home from Summer to Fall

As the warm days of summer gradually give way to cozy feel of fall, it's time to infuse your living space with the enchanting spirit of the changing season. At Lavender Fields, we believe that each season brings its own unique charm, and transitioning from summer to fall is the perfect opportunity to create a welcoming and cozy atmosphere in your home.

Bring in Warm Textures and Earthy Tones

As the weather cools down, swap out lightweight fabrics for chunkier throws, plush cushions, and soft rugs in rich earthy tones. Consider introducing warm shades of rust, mustard, and deep greens to your decor palette. These colors not only evoke the feeling of fall but also add a sense of comfort to your space.

Add Nature-Inspired Accents 

Incorporate natural elements like dried leaves, pinecones, and branches into your decor. A centerpiece of dried flowers or a vase filled with twigs can add a rustic touch to your dining table or mantle. These small details bring the outdoors in, bridging the gap between summer's freshness and fall's coziness. You can also add these elements with throw pillows and blankets like those from our Designers Guild line.

Layer Your Home with Cozy Throw Blankets, Pillows, and Rugs

Layering is key to creating a cozy ambiance. Drape your sofas and chairs with throw blankets, mix and match cushions of different textures, and layer rugs for extra warmth underfoot. These layers not only add visual interest but also invite you to snuggle up and unwind.

Elevated Elegance: Decorating with Neutral Tones, the Lavender Fields Way

Neutral tones have an undeniable charm, offering a versatile and timeless foundation for your home decor. At Lavender Fields, we're here to show you how to embrace neutral tones without ever being boring, by infusing creativity and thoughtful design. 

Play with Textures

One of the easiest ways to add depth and interest to a neutral color scheme is through textures. Layer soft linen cushions with a chunky knit throw or introduce a plush rug to contrast with sleek furniture. The interplay of textures elevates your decor and lends an inviting, tactile quality to the space.

Beyond Opulence: How to Achieve the Quiet Luxury Look in Your Home on Any Budget

Finding serenity in your home is crucial amidst the hustle and bustle of an increasingly busy, stressful world. As our lives become more fast-paced and technology-driven, there is a growing trend in the world of interior design that seeks to create spaces that evoke a sense of calm and tranquility. Welcome to the world of "Quiet Luxury:" – a design philosophy that celebrates understated elegance. Think the Roy family on Succession: logo-free cashmere sweaters, expansive and luxurious homes with the finest of everything (but not shouting it from the rooftops). 

Quiet Luxury is a departure from the opulence and ostentation that has defined the luxury market in the past. Instead, it focuses on a refined aesthetic that stands the test of time. At its core, this trend embraces the Japanese philosophy of Wabi-Sabi, valuing imperfection, asymmetry, and the natural beauty of materials and textures.

What is the color palette of a Quiet Luxury home? 

The color palette of Quiet Luxury is a blend of soothing neutrals and muted tones. Soft whites, gentle greys, warm beiges, and earthy hues dominate the spaces.  These colors also allow natural light to play a significant role, fostering a connection with the outdoors and bringing a sense of balance into the home. Don't be afraid to mix textures: grasscloth wallpapers, boucle armchairs, and mohair sofas are all welcome in these spaces. 

Modern History's artisan-crafted furniture is ideal for a Quiet Luxury home. Shop Modern History at Lavender Fields. 

Quiet Luxury and Minimalism

Decluttering is another hallmark of this trend. In a world filled with excess, Quiet Luxury seeks to create spaces free from unnecessary distractions. This minimalistic approach to decor emphasizes the importance of selecting pieces thoughtfully, ensuring each item serves both a functional and aesthetic purpose.

Crisp, clean, luxury bedding like Sferra is a hallmark of the quiet luxury trend. Shop Sferra bedding at Lavender Fields. 

Where to source Quiet Luxury decor

One of the key elements of Quiet Luxury is the use of natural materials. Wood, stone, and natural fabrics like linen, silk, and wool take center stage, reflecting a deep appreciation for the organic beauty of nature.

Textiles also play a significant role in Quiet Luxury decor. Luxurious, soft fabrics like cashmere, silk, and wool bring tactile comfort to the living space. Layering these textiles adds depth and warmth to the overall design, creating an inviting sanctuary where residents can unwind and recharge.

Our Sferra Pettine collection is the epitome of Quiet Luxury. Shop Sferra bedding online at Lavender Fields. 

How to embrace a Quiet Luxury look in your home

Quiet Luxury is about building a home slowly and with intention - no cheap Amazon furniture here. Instead, one slowly collects and decorates, building a space with their most beloved items.  

Another hallmark of Quiet Luxury is investing in the finer things (within your budget). Get the nice sheets from Sferra, the plush robe you've had your eye on, invest in the handmade dining table. Not only are investment pieces eco-friendly, it feels good to be surrounded by intentionally-selected, beautifully-made objets and furniture.

By embracing natural materials, neutral colors, and minimalism, homeowners can create a serene haven that stands as a timeless testament to the essence of luxury – finding beauty in simplicity. So, if you seek a space that exudes tranquility and offers an escape from the chaos of the world, the Quiet Luxury trend might just be the perfect fit for you.
