Fall’s cooler temperatures and warm hues signal the end of summer. But, the start of sweater weather also offers the chance to update your outdoor space. The great new is that you can bring autumn to your domicile with these outdoor fall decorating ideas without overhauling your whole space. Update With Fall Colors and Textures Whether looking for ways to infuse the top 10 Pantone® fall colors into your backdoor space or want to cozy up your outdoor décor, minor updates make a big impact. But, you don’t have to ditch your existing outdoor décor every time the seasons change. Seasonally-savvy Pro Tip: Mix and match layer colors, textures and patterns for more impact. A gold velvet pillow, a red plaid pillow, and a white faux fur pillow with a flannel throw is a cozy pillow combination to welcome autumn. Consider adding pops of color, like Red Pear, Ceylon Yellow and Ultra Violet in outdoor rugs. Layer warm textiles like velvet and flannel through pillows and throws. Or, sprinkle in patterns like fall-perfect plaid in curtains and pillows, and tell friends and neighbors that autumn is officially here. Autumnize Your Greenery Decorating your outdoor space doesn’t have to stop at your patio. Updating your planters and garden with seasonal floras adds the color and texture with minimal effort. Greenery that works both outdoors and indoors maximizes its usage. Plant at the beginning of fall before temperatures dip too far and then when weather cools down these can even be brought indoors. Seasonally-savvy Pro Tip: Create fall focal pieces with autumn colors, patterns, and metallic sheens. Pairing small visual cues like metallicized candle sticks with mini pumpkins and plaid table runner are the perfect way to transition to fall without blowing your budget. Remember to Update Your Porch Fall décor doesn’t stop at your backdoor; a few simple details can add just the right touch of the season to your front porch. Consider adding a sunset harvest wheat wreath or autumn leaves laurel to your front door. Rustic wood signs in many fall-friendly sayings are an easy way to transform your entryway with a farmhouse feel. And, don’t underestimate the impact pumpkins can have in white, metallic, or au naturel hues. Seasonally-savvy Pro Tip: Foliage Finder Mums are affordable, versatile and can be grown in a container or in big planter pots, typically available in orange, bronze, and yellow. Begonias come in reds and burgundies and make nice plants both indoors and out. Geraniums can be left without water until spring and still brighten up your backyard. And, don’t underestimate the power of succulents: these no-fuss plants come in a wide range of shapes, textures and colors and don’t require water, or much maintenance in centerpieces, accents and even door wreaths. Once you’ve transitioned your backyard with these outdoor decorating tips for fall, alfresco dining is the perfect excuse to spend more time outdoors and take in all the colors and style you’ve welcomed to your backyard space. Consider taking your dining experience off your patio and into your garden to really immerse yourself in the season before rain, snow, and another season take its place. Winter will be here before you know it.
