1. Wall Art That Embraces The Season

Target
Hearth & Hand x Magnolia Landscape Lake Burlap Wall Art
Swapping out your wall art is an easy way to shift your space into the season. Think warm-toned abstracts, nature-inspired prints, or vintage botanicals that bring in those autumn vibes without feeling too literal. Even a simple frame swap — like wood or brass — can cozy things up.
2. Throws That Double As Decor

Anthropologie
Anthropologie Sunset Check Merino Wool Throw
A great throw is equal parts cozy and decorative. Drape one over the sofa, tuck it at the foot of your bed, or pile a few in a basket by the fire for instant coziness.
3. Pillows For An Easy Update

Amazon
Amazon Decorative Linen Fringe Throw Pillow, Set of 2
Throw pillows are the fastest (and cheapest!) way to shift your space into fall. Swap summer’s lights and brights for earthy hues like mustard, rust, or deep green.
4. Candles That Smell Like Fall

Anthropologie
Capri Blue Pumpkin Clove Capiz Jar Candle
Candles are basically fall’s signature accessory. Pick scents that lean cozy and nostalgic — apple cider, pumpkin spice, or warm woods.
5. Lighting That Warms The Room

Target
Threshold x Studio McGee Ceramic Table Lamp
When the days get shorter, warm lighting is everything. A new table lamp or a new shade can instantly change the mood.
6. Rugs That Make It All Cozy

West Elm
Pierce & Ward Windowpane Check Handwoven Wool Rug
A cozy rug is the ultimate fall upgrade. Layering in rich textures — like wool, jute, or shag — instantly makes a space feel warmer and more inviting. Try a patterned runner in the kitchen, a vintage-inspired area rug in the living room, or even a plush shag in the bedroom.
