I’ll admit it. I absolutely love fall! I love the amount of food and treats you could get with pumpkin flavor, I love the beautiful colors and most importantly, I love to decorate my place! I’m tempted to buy anything in stores that will make my apartment look like it came out of When Harry Met Sally. I spend hours in stores looking for cute items that’ll compliment my apartment. Here are some of the best ones:

1. Scented Candles

There has to be some sort of pumpkin candle at your place right now if you’re a true advocate of fall. If not, there’s the Pumpkin Cupcake candle at Bath & Body Works. I absolutely love Bath & Body Works candles. They leave a lasting scent and occasionally on sale for very affordable prices. This candle has that traditional pumpkin scent that you love along with a little sweetness to it. If you’re not a big fan of cupcakes like myself, there are other scents too like Caramel Pumpkin Swirl, Vanilla Pumpkin Marshmallow and more.

2. String Lights

String lights look so pretty wherever you put them. I keep different types of string lights to mix things up, especially when the seasons come around. I recently bought pumpkin themed ones and I fell in love. I keep them wrapped around the top of my desk and it honestly feels so much like fall in my room.

3. Halloween Themed Baking Tools

There’s so many delicious treats that you can make when fall comes around. I  have a board on Pinterest dedicated to pumpkin cakes and cookies. To make your baked goods even more fall-like, why not add a rolling pin with a little Halloween twist? I found this neat rolling pin on Etsy. You can now decorate your pastries with cute little Halloween icons.

4. Halloween Puppy Plates

So I could spend hours in Pier 1 Imports and it makes me so thankful for their online catalog.  I usually look for cute animal decorations because they’re just so darn adorable. I had to show you guys these plates. They’re super cute and not spooky at all.

5. Cute Fall Decor

The first place I usually head to for any type of decoration is Target’s dollar section. They have such cute and affordable items. Sometimes I do step out of that section to look at Target’s seasonal decorations. I found this Halloween Lit Pumpkin Wooden Wall Decoration. It looks so nice with the lights and will give your place a homier feel.

So take advantage of the pumpkin everything, decorate your place with some cozy fall décor, and enjoy fall!
