Fall Decor Ideas for the Season

When the weather cools, we love to cuddle in front of the fireplace. It doesn’t matter if you spend so much time around the fireplace. Why not make it festive? Your living room’s focal point is the mantel. This should be your starting point for decorating your home in the fall.

Mix textures

Subtlety is the Way to Go
