Actually, decorating with fall-inspired colors is a favorite way to infuse any living room with warmth and comfort and lend it a pleasing look all year round.
From burnt orange and burgundy to yellow to chocolate and dark purple, a plethora of hues can help create an inviting space with a fall vibe.
Including any color doesn’t necessarily mean painting or changing furniture, an array of ways offers affordable options to do this, such as adding new throw pillows, curtains, or accessories.
Usually, throw pillows are the easiest way and most favorite way to introduce pops of color.
Note that when used creatively, in an unexpected manner, even small-scale splashes of color can make a big impact and completely transform the look and feel of any space.

2. Textures, Patterns, and Scents
Whatever the design style, traditional or with a contemporary twist, fall-inspired living rooms always exude warmth, coziness, comfort, and visual appeal. In classic harvest hues or in bold, unexpected colors, they are usually peaceful, delightful spaces with tons of personality, a symbol of the bounty of fall colors, textures, patterns, and scents.
Using different textures helps lend any space, especially neutral and monochrome ones, a layered, complete look and make them feel balanced and cozy. Furthermore, a room without elements that offer a variety of textures feels cold and uninviting.
Common ways for introducing textures are textiles, furniture pieces, rugs, and plants. Knitted, fur, and faux fur throws, blankets, quilts, and throw pillows, wood, leather, velvet, and knitted pieces of furniture, ethnic-inspired and sisal rugs, tapestries, tablecloths, and grasscloth wallpaper are some of the favorite options.
When it comes to patterns, textiles, such as throw pillows, window treatment, rugs, wall coverings, and upholstery are solutions to choose from.
Note that plaids and stripes in deep, warm hues also an option to add autumn touches to any living room.

On a side note, fall leaves help create affordable yet eye-grabbing seasonal décor. Whether fresh or dried, framed or not, painted or not, attached to walls or even furniture pieces, when creatively used, some leaves can transform any space and lend it a charming, elegant, autumn-inspired look.
Consider also leaf garlands and mobiles, they are an awesome way to create a sense of movement.
When it comes to scents, generally, fall is associated with pumpkin, cinnamon, and apple scents. Scented candles, homemade potpourri, garlands of dried fruit slices, herbs, and cinnamon sticks, pumpkin pies or bread, or simmer pots are just some of the ways to use scents for adding autumn touches to any space.
3. Centerpieces
Usually yet not necessarily poisoned on mantels and coffee tables, fall centerpieces are an awesome way to celebrate fall’s bounty. Whether dried flowers, leaf prints, fruit, branches, nuts, scented candles, feathers, wheat, or seeds, there is a plethora of seasonal beauties that can be used to create eye-grabbing displays.

However, as pumpkins, gourds, and apples are inherently associated with fall, you can’t go wrong using them to make fall-inspired centerpieces.
Painted or not, pumpkins and gourds, as well as apples, can be arranged in cloches and apothecary jars, on trays, cake stands, candle holders, decorative urns, and more to vary height.
