Prepping Your Apartment for Fall

Fall is upon us which means chillier nights, changing foliage and fall festivities. Fall is full of new colors, outdoor activities and cozy evenings. Take a few simple steps to help your apartment reflect this exciting season.

Incorporate Warm Colors

Adding fall colors is likely the easiest way to transform your space for any season. Throw pillows and blankets, place settings and table decor area rugs and kitchen and bath towels are all ways to incorporate seasonal colors. Try mixing a bold color, such as dee berry, mustard or burnt orange, with neutrals like beige, chestnut or off-whites.

Decorate Your Front Door and Entrance

Decorating your entryway will not only make your apartment welcoming for guests, but will bring a little fall cheer to yourself every time you come home. There are many different varieties of fall wreaths, ranging from bold florals to neutral foliage. Mums are a beautiful seasonal flower that are affordable and come potted and ready to decorate your front door. Add a festive pumpkin or two and your doorstep will look picture perfect.

Tidy Up

An important part of transitioning to each season is tidying up for a fresh start. Gather all of your summer items and find a place to store them. Plastic storage bins are great for smaller and decorative items. Larger items like coolers and beach umbrellas may need space in a closet or garage. Organize your fall clothes and shoes to be accessible and tidy. If you enjoy fragrances, try a seasonal candle or essential oil diffuser.

Enjoy this season and all of its festivities and come home to your cozy fall-ready apartment.
