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.

Embrace a Candlelit Glow

As the days get shorter, embrace the magic of candlelight. Place scented candles around your home to create a soothing and aromatic atmosphere. Opt for fragrances like cinnamon, vanilla, or warm apple pie to evoke the essence of fall.

Plan Your Seasonal Tablescapes

Whether you're hosting a harvest dinner or simply enjoying a family meal, consider creating a captivating fall-themed tablescape. Rustic chargers, textured placemats, and elegant dinnerware in fall shades will elevate your dining experience.

Fall Decorating Roundup: Our Fall Decor Favorites for Every Room in Your Home



At Lavender Fields, we love fall:  the apple cider donuts, the crisp autumn air, the changing leaves. Most of all, we love decorating for fall! Finding the prettiest fall throws, candles, and decor to stock the shop with is one of the best parts of our job. 


We start stocking the shop with fall decor starting in August, and we like to transition into fall decor around Labor Day. This year, we have a treasure trove of new fall items for the home, and we’re sharing our favorites for every room! 


Front Porch Fall Decor | How to Decorate Your Front Porch for Fal


Let’s start at the beginning! Whether you have a big wraparound porch or just a teensy stoop, there are still tons of options for how to decorate your front porch. 


We always like to start with a fall wreath - the ones with dried florals are beautiful. You can even make your own!  A doormat adds color and interest to your doorstep. 




Depending on how much space you have, we always like to add planters with fall flowers like mums in them. Our Aged Metal Soaking Tub Relic gives a vintage farmhouse look, and you can switch up the flowers seasonally. Then, stack your pretty pumpkins along the stairs! 





If you have enough space, you can really have fun with your fall decor. For larger porches, we like a porch swing like our Red Egg Porch Swing. You can switch out the pillows for the seasons - for fall, we like to add cozy throws, too. Add an outdoor rug from our Dash and Albert outdoor rug collection to really make it cozy.

Front Entryway Fall Decor | How to Decorate Your Entry for Fall


If you can fit it, your entryway should always have some sort of console table or casegood piece in it - both as a landing spot for mail or to put your purse while you take your coat off, but also for seasonal decor! 


For a modern glam look, we like our Modern History Stacked Console

If you’re more into a farmhouse or French Country look, we love this three door mirrored cabinet from Modern History - the storage makes it great for smaller spaces!

A mirror is always a good idea above an entry table - it gives you a chance for that last minute makeup check right before you leave. We like our Jamie Young Audrey Mirror, which is super affordable for such a high quality piece! 


On top of your entry table, we love vases with fall arrangements in them. Our Etu Home artisan vases come in a range of sizes to cluster on your table.  You can get a real bang for your buck with our Jamie Young set of three Gwendolyn hand-blown vases


We then layer in other natural elements, like pumpkins and gourds. We always add a candle, like our Finding Home Farms collection of fall candles


Living Room Fall Decor | How to Decorate Your Living Room for Fall


Decorating your living room for fall is all about layering cozy fall textiles in your space. We love a great wool throw, like this pretty one from Designer’s Guild. We also have dozens of fall throws on our site here. Put them in a pretty basket, like one of our Pigeon and Poodle handmade baskets. 


Designer's Guild Bampton Throw



For the chairs and sofas, you can never have too many throw pillows! We love this “Give Thanks” one that can last you through Thanksgiving. 



For a luxe look, try Bella Notte Linens velvet throw pillows - you can’t get softer than these! If you’re looking to add a little fall color in your home that you can easily change out, try our Pine Cone Hill Panne Velvet pillows.

And of course, a gorgeous fall candle - we love our colorful hobnail Simpatico candles for the living room. 




If you have a mantle in your living room, that’s a prime space to decorate for fall. We like to add pretty candlesticks with nice taper candles in fall colors. Then, add some autumnal elements, like glass, velvet, or real mini pumpkins. If your home has more of a neutral or farmhouse feel, we like the white and green pumpkins instead of orange ones. 




Dining Room Fall Decor | How to Decorate Your Dining Room for Fall

With all of the fall holidays, your dining room will be well-used this time of year. We like to jazz up a dining room with fall or harvest decor to make it feel warmer and more cozy.


First, make sure your dining room has great lighting - put it on a dimmer if you can to adjust the mood. We have a range of beautiful chandeliers for every home decor style.  Our wood bead Jamie Young Blanca chandelier can read farmhouse, French country, or coastal, depending on how you style the rest of the room. 


If you haven’t freshened up your dining room rug in a while, now is the perfect time to do it - it’ll be brand new and ready for the holidays!


If your dining room is more formal, we love to do a wool rug underfoot, like our Dash and Albert Healy Blue Woven Wool Rug. If your dining room is more casual or you have lots of kids or pets, try an indoor/outdoor rug that’ll clean in a cinch




We like having some fall-inspired serveware for your holiday get-togethers - our brand new Colette olive green glassware is a great way to keep an autumnal vibe with your usual china. If you’re looking for a major dish upgrade, our Arte Italica dishes are handmade in Italy, and the Vetro collection has real gold in the hand painted design!

To finish your table, you’ll need some fall-ready linens. We love these TL At Home vintage velvet napkins. 



Bedroom Fall Decor | How to Decorate Your Bedroom for Fall

As the weather gets cooler, we like to do a few simple things to make our clients’ bedrooms cozier and more festive. When guests come to stay for holidays like Rosh Hashanah, Thanksgiving, and fall gatherings, it’s a great time to freshen up your guest room, too.

Switching out your sheets for the fall is an easy way to keep it festive all season. Our brand new Pine Cone Hill Silken Solid Sheet set in Spice is a fun way to add fall colors to an all-white bed. 


Fall throw pillows are another way to decorate your bedroom for fall. Every bedroom should have a great throw blanket, too - we like to add a few in guest bedrooms. Check out our wide range of throw blankets here. 




We like adding a fall candle to every bedroom. Click here to check out our fall candle collection. Don’t forget the cute matches - you’ll never have to hunt down a candle lighter!
