8 Farmhouse Fall Decor Ideas

Who said you can’t do fall decor in a farmhouse setting? Celebrate the end of summer and back-to-school season with farmhouse inspired fall centerpieces, rugs and home accents. Soak in the crisp morning air and enjoy as the leaves turn to beautiful rust and golden colors.

1. Leaf Garlands

2. Apple Crates

Is there anything more reminiscent of farmhouse décor than apple crates? Stack some pumpkins on an aged wooden apple crate and add some leaves or twigs or replace your storage baskets with apple crates and you’ve got the epitome of farmhouse fall décor.

3. Rough Wooden Trays

Both functional and aesthetic, a rough wooden tray can serve as a beautiful piece to hold all your seasonal goodies. Place a succulent, small pumpkin or pumpkin spice scented candle and you’ve got yourself the ultimate portable farmhouse fall tray.

4. Add A Farmhouse Rug

Add a rustic, fall-inspired farmhouse rug to your room. It will create an inviting atmosphere while also adding coziness and uniqueness to the space. If needed, layer a fall colored rug over a neutral toned base rug - this will give you more room to play with textures and tones. In addition, use a rug visualizer to check whether it fits your current style – we love jute rugs or cream and grey rugs during this season!

8. Distressed White Wood

Set up a faux fireplace or spice up your fall mantle – in between pumpkins, corn husks and foliage, add a wooden plank or sign painted in distressed white for a chic but rustic farmhouse look this fall.

Curious about infusing that farmhouse-inspired autumn charm into your living space? Well, let's start by wrapping your space in those inviting chunky textures, courtesy of snug throws and welcoming pillows.

Elevate the warmth with a touch of nature - picture a vase brimming with autumn's finest florals sitting as the centerpiece on your coffee table. And, of course, we can't forget the beloved pumpkins. To keep the warmth alive on those chilly evenings, toss in a basket filled with blankets in those rich fall hues; they'll keep family and friends cozy.

But this farmhouse autumn magic isn't confined to your living room; it can gracefully wander into your kitchen too. Enhance the vintage charm of your pie safe or hutch with an antique scale, generously piled with a variety of gourds.

Slip a striped tea towel beneath for a hint of pattern and texture, while bittersweet branches introduce the perfect touch of seasonal color. Keep an apron hanging nearby, doubling as a piece of decor and always ready for those spontaneous fall baking adventures. So, extend the spirit of farmhouse fall decor into every nook of your home, letting the cozy allure of the season surround you and your loved ones.
