Pumpkins are one of the easiest ways to bring fall into your home, but it's also easy to go overboard. The trick is knowing how to mix them with other pieces so your home feels decorated for the season without having pumpkins on every surface.
If you're looking for a few fresh ideas, here are five ways to decorate with pumpkin home decor using some of our favorite pieces this season.
1. Mix Different Sizes, Colors, and Textures
When decorating with pumpkins, try grouping a few together instead of spreading them all over the house. Choose different sizes and mix materials and textures to make the arrangement more interesting. Three pumpkins can look completely different depending on how you put them together.
For a Chic Artique look, try pairing our Block Print Stuffed Pumpkin with a Felt Pumpkin With Jute Wrapped Stem and a Handmade Wool Felt Pumpkin. Each one has its own texture, so they look great together without being too matchy. You can also tuck some Brown Pom-Pom Picks behind the group to add a little height.
These are also pieces you can bring out year after year, so there's no need to pack them away once Halloween is over.
2. Add Pumpkin Prints With Pillows and Other Accents
Pumpkin decor doesn't have to sit on a table or mantel. Pillows and other everyday accessories are an easy way to add a little fall flavor to your home without finding room for more decorations.
Our Pumpkin Vine Lumbar Pillow and Pumpkin Vine Square Pillow look great mixed in with your everyday sofa pillows. You can also add a Large Tufted Pumpkin Pillow, Knit Pumpkin Pillow, or Pumpkin Long Pillow to a bed or reading chair.
You don't need all of them in one room. Pick a favorite or two and mix them with pillows you already have. It's an easy way to change up your living room or bedroom for fall without starting from scratch.
3. Carry the Same Design From Room to Room
If you like your fall decorations to coordinate, choosing a pattern you love and using it in a few different places is a simple way to pull everything together.
Our Pumpkin Topiary collection has several pieces that make this easy. Hang the Door Hanger on your front door, set the Sitter on a console or mantel, and add the matching Tea Towel and Trivet in the kitchen.
You can use as many or as few pieces as you like. Even two or three coordinating accents can make your fall decorations feel more put together.
4. Decorate With Pieces You Can Use Every Day
Some of our favorite seasonal decorations are the ones that look good and serve a purpose. The kitchen and dining room are great places to add a little fall because you can enjoy these pieces while cooking, entertaining, or sitting down for dinner.
Fill the Pumpkin Vine Pitcher with fresh flowers or seasonal stems, or use it to serve apple cider! Our Painted Pumpkin Wine Glasses are a fun addition to a fall dinner with friends, while the Crochet Pumpkin Trivet adds a seasonal touch to your kitchen counter.
If you're putting together a snack board for company, the Pumpkin Topiary Tray & Toothpick Set is another fun way to bring in the season. Little details like these make everyday gatherings feel a bit more special without requiring a lot of extra decorating.
5. Finish With Candles and Fall Scents
Once you've arranged your pumpkins and other fall accents, it's time to add a candle to finish the space. The soft light looks especially nice in the evening, and a seasonal scent is an easy way to make your home really feel like fall.
Our Pumpkin Sandalwood Artisan Mossy Glass Tumbler candle looks beautiful beside a pumpkin arrangement, and smells great, too! You can also use our pumpkin sandalwood scented Driftwood Candle Tray to create a simple display on a coffee table, entryway table, or kitchen counter.
And if you love the smell of apples and warm spices this time of year, Thymes Simmered Cider is a customer favorite. It's a lovely choice for your own home or as a gift for someone who loves fall.
Bring a Little Fall Into Your Home
You don't have to redo an entire room to decorate for fall. A few pumpkins, some coordinating pillows, and a candle with your favorite seasonal scent can make a big difference. Start with a spot you'd like to refresh, then add a few pieces you love.
