What is a Cloche?
A cloche, derived from the French word for “bell,” is a dome-shaped cover traditionally used to protect delicate items like small plants. In home decor, a cloche adds a touch of elegance and importance to whatever is displayed within, making it a versatile piece for any season. Whether you’re showcasing seasonal treasures or favorite collectibles, a cloche can transform ordinary items into eye-catching decor. For fall, this piece offers endless possibilities to elevate your home’s style.
How Can I Style a Cloche In My Home for Fall
Styling a cloche for fall is all about embracing the season’s natural beauty and cozy ambiance. Here are five easy ways to decorate your cloche this fall:
tablecloth / dining chairs / rug / sofa / accent chairs
1. Pumpkins and Gourds
Pumpkins and gourds are quintessential fall decor. For a quick and colorful update, fill your cloche with small gourds or these small paper pumpkins. Their varied shapes and vibrant hues add a cheerful, seasonal pop to any space. Whether placed on a mantle, dining table, or coffee table, this simple arrangement instantly brings fall vibes into your home.
2. Natural Materials
One of the best things about fall is the abundance of natural materials perfect for decorating. Pinecones, acorns, and dried leaves are ideal for filling a cloche. These organic elements not only look beautiful but also bring the outdoors in, creating a warm, earthy atmosphere. For a unique twist, try adding Spanish moss to enhance the natural, woodland feel. Remember, if you collect pinecones from nature, be sure to bake them at 200°F for a few hours to remove any moisture and bugs.
3. Figurines
Give your cloche a whimsical touch by displaying fall-themed figurines. Whether it’s a ceramic pumpkin, a cute squirrel, or a Halloween ghost, these small treasures add personality to your decor. For a modern update, spray paint your figurines in metallic tones like silver or gold. This quick DIY project turns everyday items into chic, curated pieces perfect for the season.

4. Candles
Candles are a fall decor staple, and a cloche can be the perfect way to showcase them. Use a small cloche to cover your candles when they’re not lit. This not only protects them but also adds a decorative element to your space. Imagine a cozy corner with a cloche-covered candle on your coffee table, ready to be lit as the evenings grow longer.
5. Books
For a sophisticated, academic vibe, place a stack of vintage books under a larger cloche. This display is perfect for a library or study area, channeling the moody, intellectual charm of fall. Pair it with other seasonal decor like a plaid throw or leather accents to create a warm, inviting space that’s perfect for reading or relaxing.
