How to Transition Summer to Fall Using Warmth in the Dining Room
Fall means pumpkin spice lattes, football games, and of course changing your decor for the upcoming season. And we're not going to do it with pumpkin spice candles; the key here is to mix fall and summer colors so that you don't feel like there's a drop in temperature because of all the variety incorporated throughout the space! Here are our favorite tips on how to transition from a summer style dining room into an autumn-ready one:
Rugs
Moving your table and adding a rug below gives a pop of color and warmth to your dining room.
Fall Decor
Place a few pieces of fall décor in your dining room, like pumpkins, oak leaves, wheat, or sunflowers.
Color
Bring in textiles with warm tones like oranges, beiges, and browns to offset the cooler colors.
Texture
Replace your tablecloth or napkins with ones that have more texture and a splash of color.
Greenery
Add a few plants to the dining room for greenery to keep an outdoor feel.
Dimension
Create visual interest and give dimension by adding pillows or blankets, changing up your wall art, adding wood pieces.
Lighting
You may need additional lighting during the darker months of winter, but keep the curtains off during the months of fall and let natural light do all of the work for you! Place small candles on the table and light them when it gets dark out.
In the coming months, it will be essential to consider how you want your home to feel. When transitioning from summer into fall (and eventually winter), start creating an autumnal vibe with warmer colors. Then everything doesn't look too cold or stark but instead has some cohesiveness between seasons! What are your favorite fall-inspired color combinations?
