Autumn home decor ideas: Bring Nature Indoors

Here are some nature-inspired autumn home decor ideas that work great.

• Wreaths: Put a seasonal wreath on your door or above the fireplace.

• Natural accents: Use pinecones, acorns, and dried flowers in bowls or trays to add a touch of natural beauty.

• Greenery: Instead of summer blooms, use late-season foliage. With the proper styling, even fake plants can look real.

For instance:

• The Indoor Midnight Blue Harvest Floral Wreath features orange sunflowers and pinecones. It looks great when it is propped up or hung.

• The Sunflower Floral Door Wreath is suitable for use both inside and outside. The bright blue and orange tones give it a bold autumn look.
