1. Battery Operated Candles

Battery-operated candles are a fantastic choice for creating a cozy atmosphere throughout the year, but they are especially magical during the fall. These realistic-looking taper candles mimic the appearance of real wax with their textured drops and flickering flames, adding an inviting glow to your home. They’re perfect for enhancing the ambiance as the days grow shorter and colder.

Don’t forget to stock up on rechargeable batteries to keep the ambiance going without frequent replacements. I love using a portable charging station to recharge my batteries so our home is always bathed in the warm light of candle glow.

2. Reversible Fall Throw Blanket

This reversible throw blanket was a spring purchase, but its rich colors make it a standout piece for fall. It offers the luxurious feel of Anthropologie without the hefty price tag and adds a cozy touch to any space. The versatility of being reversible means you can switch up the look depending on your mood or the room’s decor.

3. Velvet Pillow Covers

Velvet pillow covers are a must-have for adding a touch of luxe to your fall decor. Priced at just $20 for two, these ruffled pillow covers in a warm gold tone are the epitome of fall style. The soft velvet fabric and elegant ruffled design elevate any sofa or chair. Pro Tip: Invest in high-quality pillow inserts and swap out your covers seasonally to refresh your look while saving money and storage space.

4. Moody Fall Garland

Garlands aren’t always something you think of for Fall decorating, but this rich moody color is perfect for adding some color to your mantle, railings or even down the center of your table like I did on this Christmas table setting! This plum cimicifuga leaf garland looks so realistic and gives me the moody Fall vibes I love! And natural elements like leaves never go out of style so you will use these garlands year after year!

5. Faux Mums

I have learned over the years that I just end up wasting too much money on decorating my front porch for Fall with gorgeous colorful pots of mums. They don’t last long because I always forget to water them! Last year I bought the most realistic looking faux mums that will never die on me and after having them out in the elements all last year and now styling them this year they are still as stunning as the day I brought them home!
