Fall is a season for spending time with family and friends, entertaining, and enjoying the holidays together. In order to prepare your home for this season, it can be a great idea to revamp your living room using fall colors and styles. When choosing the right fall colors for your living room, it is best to consider the emotion and feeling that you want to evoke.

Bright

Fall weather can be very cold, bleak, and dreary sometimes. That is why some people choose to use bright fall colors in their living room in order to lift your spirits as soon as you walk in the door. Greens, bronze, and gold, and pale yellows are great for creating this cheery effect that many desire.

Warm

Another way to combat the cold of the outdoors is to brighten the indoors using warm reds and oranges throughout the décor. Because of the changing of the leaves, reds and orange are classic choices for warm and cozy fall living room decorating.

Wooden

Fall decorating is not limited to just paints, fabrics, and curtains. You can also create an interesting and unique look by decorating your living room with wooden accents, furniture, and other details. Shutters, blinds, and custom closets can help you incorporate a lot of natural deep browns into your living room fall color scheme.

Prints

Using prints is not reserved for the springtime. When decorating your living room for fall, a great inexpensive way to make a huge difference is to hang a beautiful window treatment that incorporates a fall-friendly print. Fall prints generally have larger bolder floral designs or leaves, and incorporate rich colors such as red, orange, and brown.

Cool

If you feel like creating a relaxing place to hibernate for the season, you can decorate your living room with cool blue hues. You can create a tranquil fall living room with serene light blues, using deeper bolder blues as your accent pieces for a bit of variety. 

Accent

Fall is a great season for bold accent pieces. If you prefer a more neutral and tranquil décor, but want to incorporate variety, accent colors can have a major impact. An accent piece can be a wall painted a deep red-orange color, a forest green window treatment, or throw pillows that incorporate every rich color you see in the falling leaves outside. The best part about using accent pieces and colors is that you can give your living room a fall makeover even with the smallest of budgets.
