Seasonal Wreath

The fall season is finally here, and millions of homeowners across the country are gearing up to create a new look for their home. There are many Sarasota and Bradenton homes for sale that are awaiting an autumn transformation.

Our real estate agents have the tips you need to give your home a seasonal touch. 

  • Add Some Natural Elements
    An easy way to spice up your home during the fall is to add some natural elements to your indoor space. This can include potted plants or cutting some branches from a tree outside and putting them in a vase. Pumpkins are a very popular go-to for fall decorations. Instead of orange, you might want to select green or white pumpkins for a more trendy look.

  • Redo Your Lighting Scheme
    As we move further into the fall, you'll notice that the days are shorter. This means there will be less natural light. If you're looking for a fun home improvement project, you may want to install an entirely new lighting setup. But an easier way to give your home a new look is to add lanterns and candles to the decor. Not just inside. One of our favorite ideas is to pair open lanterns and pumpkins for the front porch.

  • Change to a Cozier Decor
    Whereas being active is often a symbol of summer, being cozy is a symbol of the fall. Your home should reflect that. Add some new textures with the use of large blankets, layers, and heavier fabrics. If you ask us, we'd say that boucle, which is a type of woven fabric, is the perfect way to achieve a cozy effect.

  • Switch to Warmer Colors
    Switching to warmer colors for the fall is one of the easiest ways to make your home look entirely different. Grab some throw blankets and pillows with fall colors such as brown, red, and orange. This is a big change from how many homeowners decorate their homes in the summer, which is typically with cool blues and bright whites.

  • Add Some Table Decorations
    A quick and easy way you can give your kitchen and other areas of your home a brand-new appearance is to add some items to your tables. A nature-inspired centerpiece consisting of dried flowers, pine cones, and candles is a perfect addition to any table. You can either dry the flowers yourself or head down to your local florist and purchase some instead.

  • Create a Few Jack-O'-Lanterns
    Jack-o'-lanterns are great for Halloween, but you've probably noticed that they're very popular throughout the entire season. There are many YouTube videos that will show you how to create very lavish designs. If you don't trust your pumpkin carving skills, you can find someone local who will either sell you a pre-made jack-o'-lantern or create a custom one for you.

  • Install a Backyard Fire Pit
    If you're looking for something more impactful, you may want to consider installing a backyard fire pit. As home improvement projects go, a fire pit isn't very expensive. If you're not interested in anything too lavish, there are small, inexpensive ones that you can basically place on any surface. Gathering around the fire pit, especially as the weather gets colder, is a wonderful way to hang out with friends and family.

These seasonal touches will instantly transition your home from summer to fall. Contact us for more exciting seasonal touches or to find the perfect home for you and your family.
