Southern Living's editorial guidelines Updated on August 29, 2024 01:53PM EDT Photo: Southern Living Professional interior designers are already thinking about the season ahead, and how to style everything from fall outdoor porches to their living and dining spaces. The key, of course, is to add rich colors and a lot of texture, but if you don’t have a design degree, that, of course, might be easier said than done. We consulted the experts for their professional takes on how to decorate for fall—and with what. Sharing their favorite on-sale fall decor finds from Amazon, here’s what they had to say. “As the crisp autumn air begins to roll in and the leaves start their annual transformation into a vibrant tapestry of reds, oranges, and golds, it’s the perfect time to bring that cozy fall feeling into your home,” Pamela Williams, Owner and Principal Designer of the Atlanta, GA-based Pamela Williams Interior Design, tells “Southern Living.” “Whether you’re a skilled decorator or just looking to add a few seasonal touches, Amazon has become a go-to destination for finding stylish and affordable fall decor. From plush throws to festive garland, the right decor can instantly make your space feel like a true autumn retreat.” Shop Interior Designer-Approved Fall Decor Picks Dissa Fleece Throw Blanket, $21.99 Huminbo 95-Piece Flowers Bouquet, $19.85 (orig. $22.82) Party Joy Six-Piece Beige Fall Maple Leaves, $29.90 DecorUHome Chenille Throw Pillow Covers, $11.69 with coupon (orig. $23.49) FF FragrFlowing Four-Pack Fall Candle Set, $24.99 with coupon (orig. $29.99) “In Stitches: The Enchanted World of Coral & Tusk,” $57.50 Coyuchi Cloud Brushed Organic Flannel Fitted Sheet Set, $122.20 (was $188) Staub 0.5-Quart Petite Ceramic Pumpkin Dish, $42.21 (orig. $57) Artgar 23-Piece Pumpkin Decor Set, $11.89 (orig. $16.99) U’Artlines Fall Anti-Fatigue Kitchen Mat, $23.18 with coupon (orig. $28.98) Cir Oases 20-Inch Fall Wreath, $35.99 Keep reading to get ready for the season with these interior designer-approved fall decor picks, starting at $12. These Are The Top Home Decor Trends Of 2024, According To Designers DecorUHome Chenille Throw Pillow Covers Amazon Orig. $24 $12 at Amazon On sale for 45 percent off, and also eligible for an additional 10 percent-off coupon, this set of two 18-inch by 18-inch throw pillows is the perfect shade of pumpkin orange—and now only $12. Williams calls them the “perfect addition to your fall decor,” adding that “their rich, earthy tones and [their] cozy texture effortlessly blends with autumnal elements.” Williams recommends styling the pillows on a neutral sofa or layering them with other pillows on a bed to “add depth and comfort” and create “an inviting and serene ambiance.” Williams adds, “Their farmhouse-inspired design, complete with delicate stitched detailing, will invite the feeling of a cozy retreat into your living room or bedroom… By incorporating these pillows into your fall decor, you’re inviting a sense of rustic elegance and homely warmth that makes any room feel more inviting and complete.” Of course, Williams isn’t the only one loving what these throw pillows bring to the table—or really, to the couch. They have a 4.6-star rating and more than 6,000 five-star ratings on Amazon with several reviewers commenting on their super soft velvet feel. Party Joy Six-Piece Beige Fall Maple Leaves Amazon $30 at Amazon Incorporate it into your fall porch decor, use it to outline a fireplace mantle, or drape it across the dining room table like a runner. There’s so much you can do with this beige leaf garland made of six 84-inch pieces. Each individual leaf is 4 inches by 8 inches and, like an artificial Christmas tree, can be fluffed up to appear fuller and more realistic. “This garland will warm up any space with rich reds, oranges, and yellows—capturing the essence of autumn,” Williams says. “What makes this garland stand out is its ability to infuse your home with the cozy, inviting ambiance of fall leaves, creating a sense of seasonal change without the hassle of maintaining real foliage. It adds a dynamic layer of texture and color to your decor, making your home feel like a welcoming autumn retreat. Whether you’re hosting a Thanksgiving gathering or simply want to enjoy the cozy vibes of the season, this garland is the perfect touch to elevate your space with effortless fall charm.” Huminbo 95-Piece Flowers Bouquet Amazon $23 at Amazon “The Huminbo 95-Piece Flowers Bouquet is a great touch of seasonal foliage that is versatile in the way it effortlessly enhances any space with a natural, seasonal touch,” Williams says. “I would style this bouquet in a simple, elegant vase, placed as a centerpiece on your dining table, or arranged on a console table in your entryway to greet guests with a warm, inviting vibe.” Included in the dried bouquet are 57 phalaris, bunny tail grass, eucalyptus, and wheat branches, 30 reed pampas grass, five extra-large fluffy pampas grass, and three plum eucalyptus leaves. Williams adds, “The deep, warm colors of the flowers complement a wide range of decor styles, from rustic to modern, making your space feel cozy and ready for the fall season. Whether you're looking to create a focal point or add subtle seasonal accents, this bouquet is a perfect choice to elevate your home’s ambiance.” Dissa Fleece Throw Blanket Amazon $22 at Amazon This fall-friendly throw blanket does it all, adding a pop of color, texture, warmth, and style to your couch, chair, or bed. While it’s available in multiple sizes and colors, Williams’ pick is the mustard yellow that perfectly complements the other shades in this fall-themed palette. “I recommend this blanket for its soft, cozy texture and charming pom pom details that add a playful yet sophisticated touch,” Williams says. “Style it by draping it over the arm of a sofa or laying it across the foot of a bed, where it not only serves as a warm layer but also brings visual interest with its rich color and inviting texture.” FF FragrFlowing Four-Pack Fall Candle Set Amazon Orig. $30 $25 at Amazon Grab four autumnal candles for the price of one with this on-sale multi-pack by FragrFlowing. Each hand-poured candle—in scents Hello Fall, Spiced Pumpkin, Apple Wreath, and Vanilla Cupcake—features 7 ounces of natural soy wax in an aesthetically-pleasing amber jar. “Our sense of smell is often overlooked in interior design and the changing season is the perfect time to incorporate fragrances of fall,” Williams explains, also calling this set a “must-have for creating a warm, cozy ambiance.” She adds, “I would style this candle on a coffee table, in a decorative tray, or on a mantel alongside other fall-themed decor like small pumpkins or autumn leaves.” Fragrance notes a la plant-based essential oils include pumpkin, cloves, cinnamon, vanilla, apple, citrus, maple, sandalwood, musk, lily, vanilla, sugar, buttercream, and milk. Each candle also features a cotton wick designed to burn cleanly—for up to 200 hours—with little to no ashing, tunneling, or clumping. “Whether you're hosting a gathering or simply unwinding after a long day, this candle set helps set the perfect mood for any fall occasion,” Williams adds. “In Stitches: The Enchanted World of Coral & Tusk” Amazon $58 at Amazon “My top fall decor pick is our new book [with publisher Rizzoli],” Stephanie Housley, author of “In Stitches,” and textile designer and founder behind Coral & Tusk, says. Housley, who grew up in the Ohio River Valley near the Kentucky border and has since relocated to Wyoming, adds, “We are delighted about every aspect of this project, but are over the top thrilled about the cover since it is actually embroidered. With the embellished, embroidered cover front AND back, this treasure adds texture, beauty and surface interest to any coffee table or bookshelf you are styling out this season.” Featuring 224 pages of hand-drawn illustrations of the whimsical sea creatures and playful woodland animals that inspire Housley’s waggish embroidered textiles, the designer is most proud that the book’s “tactile cover” is “reflective of our craft and the content of all the pages.” Coyuchi Cloud Brushed Organic Flannel Fitted Sheet Set Amazon Orig. $188 $123 at Amazon All the fall-themed throw pillows and bouquets in autumnal shades won’t do much to keep you warm as the seasonal temperatures change, so Housley doesn’t want you to forget to blend design with function. “It gets very cold where we live in rural Wyoming, which means fall is a perfect time to swap out our cotton and linen sheet sets for cozy flannel,” Housley explains. “We love everything about Coyuchi, and gleefully use their products all of the time in our photoshoots. I plan to use this sheet set on our guest bed this fall, and add our Halloween pillows for accents!” Staub 0.5-Quart Petite Ceramic Pumpkin Dish Amazon Orig. $57 $43 at Amazon Available in different sizes and three Halloween-friendly hues—matte black, white, and burnt orange—Housley appreciates that these Staub pumpkin dishes are as much for cooking as they are for decoration. Each dish is scratch-resistant, has an easily graspable handle that ensures your hand won’t slip, and is microwave-, freezer-, broiler-, and oven-safe up to 572 degrees Fahrenheit. “I love Staub products and plan to pair these darling pumpkin baking dishes with Coral & Tusk’s newest fun fall table runner, Pumpkin Patch,” Housley says. “These [Staub] pumpkins are perfect because they are very well made, have a timeless design, and are both decorative AND functional.” Artgar 23-Piece Pumpkin Decor Set Amazon Orig. $17 $12 at Amazon According to Williams, this super affordable, 23-piece pumpkin decor set “is a versatile collection of fall accessories I recommend snagging for seasonal charm throughout your home.” The bundle features all the autumnal-themed decor you could possibly think of or even need, including pinecones, acorns, faux leaves, pumpkins, and sprigs of fall berries. “I would style these pieces in a decorative bowl on an entryway console, coffee table, or mantel to create a warm, welcoming display,” Williams adds. “Alternatively, they can be arranged in a vase as part of a dining table centerpiece, integrated into a fall tablescape, or even used to craft your own festive wreath, garland, or 3D wall art.” U’Artlines Fall Anti-Fatigue Kitchen Mat Amazon Orig. $29 $24 at Amazon Anti-fatigue kitchen mats are a big help in the kitchen when you’ve been standing on your feet, cooking all day, but you can also change them out seasonally, too, for an added touch of fall. Williams loves how this kitchen mat offers “both aesthetic charm and practical comfort.” Yes, it’s designed “to reduce physical fatigue” and “provide cushioned support that makes standing for extended periods… much more comfortable,” but Williams points out that it also “brings a fall ambiance to the kitchen, transforming it into a space where comfort meets style.” Cir Oases 20-Inch Fall Wreath Amazon $36 at Amazon And it wouldn’t be fall without a seasonal wreath, right? Williams’ $36 pick mixes traditional autumnal oranges with natural cream hues and the minty greens of lamb’s ear and eucalyptus, featuring pumpkins, berries, leaves, and more. “This wreath, with its vibrant array of autumn leaves, pinecones, and pumpkins, is more than just a decoration—it’s an inviting element that sets the stage for a season of cozy gatherings and festive celebrations,” Williams says. “Style this wreath on your front porch by pairing it with potted mums, a pair of lanterns or pumpkins, and a fall doormat to create a welcoming exterior approach that embodies the spirit of the season.” Was this page helpful?
