As we shift into fall, there’s an impulse to get fully into the spirit of the season — with scented candles, pumpkin spice everything and leaves on every surface. Even though fall has its own feel and décor, the shift from summer to fall can still be subtle, requiring very little work to make the change. Here are a few tips on how to set up your seasonal décor for easy shifts between the seasons.
4 Ways to Add Subtle Seasonal Changes to Your Décor
- Keep your seasonal décor flexible. Instead of laying out a huge amount of décor that is specific to individual seasons, look for more general fall-themed options, such as adding apples, leaves, pine cones, burlap, candles and straw.
- Shift between seasons by adding a few touches. With school starting, add a few apples to your centerpiece or mantle as summer’s long, slow days shift into fall’s dry, cool weather and falling leaves. As the season continues, add a fall-themed bow to a door wreath or bouquet.
- Make subtle shifts from summer to winter. If you can, consider adding acorns earlier in the season and replace them with frosted pine cones later on. You can also create an arrangement of fall flowers in September and replace them with frosted berries around Thanksgiving.
- To celebrate holidays, add a few special items that will still work through the rest of the season. A few simple changes can help you recognize holidays without going overboard in the process.
By keeping your décor adaptable to the changes in the seasons, you’ll be able to reduce your overall workload while still making your home look fabulous. Is it the house itself that’s part of your décor problem? Why not find out what our architects can do to make it right for you?

In the work area, we used what we know works and copied the Edwards office for the desks. We put in a similar Kitchenette, but stayed with the theme in the office and had the cabinets painted a custom color; purple of course.
Hello world! Anna Griffith here from Tab Associates. I have been with TAB Associates for almost a year now and feel so lucky to have found such a great team to work with. I received my masters last spring from University of Colorado Denver and moved to the valley shortly after. It feels so good to be back in the mountains of Colorado.
been an incredible experience and I feel very fortunate to be working with committed, talented and imaginative minds (both in our office and the teams we collaborate with). Since moving to Colorado I have been enjoying this thing people around here call “snow”, as well as trying to indulge in the lush Colorado forests by way of camping and hiking. During college I got to experience living in Barcelona and got acquainted with several other European countries and cultures, and ever since then I try to keep traveling to new cities and places (foreign and within the US) to continue expanding my knowledge of other cultures and the human interaction across the world.
