We love decorating, am I right? Especially if it involves anything Fall or Halloween, well, at least I love it! I feel like fall decorating really brings a soothing mood to the air. Halloween décor is obviously a must, but surprisingly, there is a season before Halloween. I know, SHOCKING! Fall is what leads into Halloween, and we all know that you can’t have a chapter 2 without a chapter 1. I am here to give some ideas to bring chapter 1 to life.

To me, the right vibe has to be set for any type of season. When dealing with Fall, it is not hard at all to set the right vibe. From cozy weather to leaves falling and changing colors, it’s almost as if the earth is decorating for us, which in a sense it basically is. The retail world loves to sell decorations for each season of the year WAY before the seasons begin. That is not bad, though, because it gives us ideas on how to decorate.

If you just do not have a creative mind at all or the motivation to try to decorate, that is totally okay! I suggest decorating for the Fall to make online classes in your bedroom seem cozier or to make that Netflix show easier to fall asleep through (unless it’s Gossip Girl). Here are some cute decoration ideas and where to get them at:

  • Candles Candles Candles

    • Bath and Body has a new line of candles and scents called The Fall Bakery

  • String Hanging Lights

    • Target is my go to place for hanging lights for my room

  • Pillows and Blankets

    • T.J.MAXX is perfect for fall home décor especially the cute pillows and blankets they sell

  • Decorative Pumpkins

    • Not fall without a Pumpkin and Hobby Lobby feels that

  • Wreaths

    • Nothing says Fall like your front door reminding you of the wreath you bought at Hobby Lobby

To say the least, those were just some of the main Fall décor ideas. You can never go wrong with a little decoration around the house or apartment. If you decide on buying any of these decorations, then I promise the vibe will feel better, and you will be ready for Chapter 2!
