8 Frugal Ways to Decorate Your Home for Fall

Do you love the look of Fall home decor, but don’t have the budget to get the look you want? The great news is that you can achieve the perfect Fall look that is both warm and cozy without going broke. By using natural elements around you and by getting creative with thrift store finds, you can decorate your home for Fall for just a fraction of buying new. Take a look below at 8 frugal ways to decorate your home for Fall so you can enjoy a fabulous and frugal fall, no matter what your budget may be.

 

8 Frugal Ways to Decorate Your Home for Fall

1. Save those falling twigs and branches.

If you are constantly picking up twigs and branches in your yard, you are in luck. Save them and gather them in a vase for a cheap and easy centerpiece. If you wish, you can spray paint them with metallic spray paint, and even sprinkle them with glitter,  prior to assembling them in a vase.

 

2. Find some gourds and mini pumpkins.

Gourds and mini pumpkins can often be found for 4 for $1. At some farmer’s markets where they are in abundance, they might be even less. These are perfect when used as bowl fillers or when added to centerpieces. They also look amazing displayed on mantels, window sills, or in baskets.

3. Shop thrift stores for warm and inviting pieces.

Why not head to your local thrift store for warm and inviting objects to perk up your space? Look for wooden bowls, baskets, fall themed artwork, small furniture pieces you can paint in fall colors, small lamps, and other items that offer a cozy feel. You can usually purchase these items for pennies on the dollar.

 

4. Change out your throw pillows and blankets.

This is a quick and easy way to add fall color to your space. Change out your throw pillows to a color that is a rich earth tone. Check out these options on Amazon for some inspiration! You can also do the same with your throw blankets. Change them out for a rich color or faux fur that is perfect for chilly fall nights.

 

 

5. Add some dollar store Fall-themed towels to your bathroom.

Most dollar stores offer Fall-themed hand towels for just a buck, so why not grab a few to add to your bathroom? You can even keep a few in the kitchen to help permeate the Fall theme throughout the entire house.

 

6. Add fall colors to your picture frames.

Paint wooden picture frames (or even spray paint metal ones) in rich Fall colors. This is a great way to create a fall display of photos for less since you are upcycling frames you already have. In fact, you can add a little paint to just about any home accessory to give it rich Fall color!

7. Make it smell like Fall.

One of the easiest and cheapest ways to get a home to feel like Fall is to make it smell like Fall. You can always burn inexpensive dollar store candles in scents like apple or pumpkin spice, or you can even heat a little cinnamon and cloves mixed with water on the stove for the same effect. This past year I also found a bunch of Fall scents for wax melters, too. I LOVE the cinnamon roll scent I found, and it makes the house feel so homey.

 

8. Add charm with inexpensive vintage pieces.

You can always cozy up a space for Fall with inexpensive vintage pieces found at most thrift stores and antique shops. Make a display of old books, or toss an old quilt over a chair. You can even find a beat up chair with the seat missing and stuff a pot of mums into it for quick patio decor.

Are you ready to get your space fall ready without breaking the bank? Give these 8 frugal ways to decorate your home for fall a try and see how fun it can be!
