With autumn just around the corner, get ready to bring in crisp cool days and changing colors. Chocolate browns, burnt oranges, marigold yellows and deep reds are abundant outdoors, so create an inviting atmosphere with these colors indoors. As you break out warm sweaters and send the kids back to school, decorate with fall color schemes to bring the comforting hues of autumn inside your home.
Rich brown sofas or chairs add a beautiful contrast to light wooden floors. Create an attractive, eye-catching focal point in a neutral room with an orange or yellow chair or table. Sheer tan or golden curtains can add a sense of privacy or separate different parts of a larger room. If you choose to focus on one color scheme, be weary about overdoing it – choose a color that is dynamic but not too bold, such as a faded marigold.
You can also add fall color schemes to different accent pieces. Wine color pillows or amber throws on a sofa add a splash of fall color. Brighter hues such as orange and yellow add vibrancy to a room. Paint the back of a bookcase or purchase a side table that is lined with these one of these bright colors to make certain aspects of the room pop out.
Muted earthy patterns paired with brown and tan accents such as wood or bronze create a natural aura throughout your room. If you want to bring nature indoors, find artwork or bring in foliage that encapsulates these colors. Forest green gourds or a blazing red branch are common autumn-themed decorations.
