Favorite Fall Design Trends

The transition from summer to fall provides the perfect excuse to update your home with new accessories, some fresh colors inspired by the season, and design trends that add warmth and interest. Here are some of fall’s top trends that you may want to try . . . 1. Create a Gallery Wall – It’s an easy way to add personality to your space. Allow your gallery to include a mix of things such as prints, drawings, plates, as well as artwork found at flea markets and on Etsy. 2. Mix & Match Styles – Instead of thinking that all interior spaces have to match, take more of a risk by mixing ad matching styles and design genres to create a unique look. 3. Try High-Contrast Colors – The softer muddy colors that have been so popular for the last number of years are making way for clearer brights. Try mixing basics in white or black with a bright accent color of your choice. 4. Use a Tray – Lacquered or textured trays are a great, inexpensive way to pull items together and add bold pops of color to your space. 5. Display Vintage Accessories – Keep your eyes open at flea markets, yard sales or thrift shops for charming, inexpensive items such as baskets, toys, signs, kitchen gadgets, etc. 6. Incorporate Bold, Graphic Patterns – The patterns that used to be an exception are now the norm. If you’re not comfortable going too bold, experiment with accessories such as pillows, artwork, tableware, etc. 7. Bring in Chunky Knits – Design trends often follow those that we see on the runway. Tweeds and knits are a huge trend in fall fashion, so it makes sense that we’ll be seeing all sorts of knits in upholstery, pillows, throws and other soft accessories. 8. Set an Eclectic Tabletop – Shop for dishes, bowls and glassware in fun prints, dots, stripes and bold colors, then

create a fun, vivid display for your family and your dinner guests.
