It doesn’t truly feel like autumn without the essentials like bonfires, pumpkin pies, apple-picking, and décor. Below, we’ve rounded up a list of our top fav cozy-fall-home accents for you to benefit from before you leap into a pile of crisp leaves.

  • Create an edible nature morte. Celebrate the harvest season by creating a yummy nature morte, i.e., still life. Use everything the autumn brings us generously – pumpkins, leaves, apples, grapes, etc. With a couple of candles and a wooden box, you’ll easily reproduce one of those thematic oil paintings. 
  • Hang wreaths. Create sweater-weather feel by adding wreaths made of…well, virtually anything: dry lavender flowers, pampas grass, Lagurus ovatus, Ruscus, dried oats, Eucalyptus, fern, Hydrangea, Chrysanthemums, and other gifts from Mother Nature. Hang them on the front door, above the sofa, above the window, on kitchen cabinets, or above the fireplace mantel.
  • Adorn your home with leafy garlands. Who said that the guide to seasonal decor best decoration should be tough to make? Get a pack of golden fall leaves, add some branches, and voilà! The farmhouse look is guaranteed for the above-the-mantel space. 
  • Words. Literally welcome fall into your home with the help of simple Cozy Vibes Await, Sweater Weather Season, Golden Hours, Amber Leaves, Hello Pumpkin sign on a chalkboard.

Start a rustic autumn makeover in early September.

How to organize seasonal decor and store it like a pro:

  • To avoid scratches, wrap faux pumpkins and garlands individually.
  • Store textiles in breathable bags.
  • To avoid moisture damage, store wooden décor and candleholders in dry bins with silica packets.

Get Home Ready for Xmas Time

At Enjoy The Wood, we’re huge fans of Christmas – flamboyant, fun, and with a taste of nostalgia. While we’re just a couple of months away from Noël, we’re sure you’ll appreciate inspiration for the season ahead. Best time to decorate - late November to early December.

  • Add a bow-dacious feel. The simplest and best tips for seasonal home decor – get more bows! This Christmas, they keep trending in all forms – oversized and petite, classy red, and long hauls. The best part? You can add it to literally anything in the room.  
  • Think big. Larger-than-life decorations bring color, festive vibes, and a pinch of uniqueness to your home. Giant snowflakes, ornaments, and honeycombs are created to wow.
  • Black, white, and gold. How about black used as a holiday color? Something you definitely raise an eyebrow to is actually a trendy color scheme!  A black tablecloth in tandem with white napkins and golden cutlery is ideal for those looking to add a touch of glam to their Xmas displays.
  • Take care of smells. On ho-ho-ho season, all of your senses should be engaged! So, get the right smells on with the help of candles, essential oil diffusers (fir, peppermint, and vanilla rock!), pine or cedar garlands and wreaths, and mulled wine.

Finally, celebrations in 2025 are all about personality. Buy what you love. This season, after all, is about nostalgia for the white Christmas, just like the ones we used to know. Decorate in a way that brings you happiness, no more, no less.

How to store seasonal decor:

  • Get divided ornament boxes for baubles.
  • Wrap string lights around cardboard or reels to prevent tangling.
  • Store wreaths and garlands in garment bags or wreath containers to keep their shape.

Spring Wardrobe Change for Home

The days are getting longer and we're finally putting away warm coats – there’s much more to spring! Bring in spring motifs with ease:

  • Add color, color, and more color. Cheery green season vibes come with colorful wall accessories. A couple of brightly painted dishes on the wall, kaleidoscopic rugs, and a set of chairs of different colors will work magic. 
  • Bring in floras. Any room feels more alive with gorgeous blossoms in a vase. It’s the time of lilacs, tulips, daffodils, hyacinths, and crocuses that instantly give an Eden-like feeling to the setting. Faux flowers work well, too.
  • Woven basket kingdom. Bring out those rustic baskets and fill them with florals, Easter-themed eggs, and other seasonal accessories. 
  • Add curves. Organic shapes are hit! Think stools that look like mushrooms, arched mirrors, or/and rounded coffee tables. This kind of artistic edge and modern touch helps welcome spring in a stylish environment.
  • Fill lanterns with blossoms. The days are getting longer, so perhaps you don’t need lanterns anymore. However, if you fill them with moss, faux flowers, and succulents, you’ll elevate your mantel, coffee table, and bookshelf.

How to store stuff:

  • Use tissue paper or/and bubble wrap to wrap delicate faux flowers.
  • Use tall, narrow bins for wreaths.
  • Keep pastel fabrics in a vacuum-sealed bags.

Summertime and the Livin’ Is Easy…

Before the outdoors fun begins (late May to early June), it’s time to refresh the space with some accents:

  • Create a garden on a windowsill. These days and sun kisses are perfect to display a bunch of petite planters on a windowsill. Anything from herbs to flowers works.
  • Hang lights outdoors. Plus, pick some bright-colored cushions and bamboo lanterns for an extra-cozy touch.
  • Beautify the room with regional maps. Bring harmonious vibes into your home and track all of the summer adventures on a map!  
  • Buy new curtains. Make space airier with linen or cotton curtains in light colors. 
  • Fill bowls and vases. Nature’s abundance is your source for summery accents. All those azaleas, peonies, dahlias, daisies, and geraniums add a pop of color that no faux materials can beat. 

When to change seasonal decor? September marks the transition from warm days to autumn, so plan your transformation around that.

How to store summer decor:

  • Clean and dry outdoor lights and lanterns before you put them in the box.
  • Roll up lightweight fabrics and put them in labeled bins.
  • Use clear boxes or/and zipper pouches for similar accents to keep sets together.

Now go upgrade your space and decorate like a pro!
