Every year, us Michiganders are delighted with one of the most amazing spectacles in our country, and that is the changing of the leaves during the Fall season. Michigan’s landscape becomes a canvas where Autumn hues of orange, yellow and burgundy shape the backdrop. While the outdoors are a sight to see, many attempt to capture the essence of outdoor Fall and bring it into their home. Let’s take a look at some Fall flooring and decorating ideas to bring into your home.
Hardwood
Hardwood flooring is a Fall favorite, with its ability to create a rustic appeal. Try a darker hardwood with an aged look, and it’s sure to blend in perfectly with any Fall decorations.
Area Rugs
Not everyone wants to create a Fall landscape in their home for the entire year, therefore an area rug is a perfect way of capturing the essence of Fall for as long as you’d like. Try some darker autumn reds or perhaps some burnt orange colors to mimic the look of the Fall leaves on the ground. Throw in some Fall decorations and you will have yourself a Fall playground in your home.
Set The Mood
While we all enjoy the beauty of the natural sunlight during the summer months, some prefer to darken things a bit during the fall and winter months and embrace the holiday season. Try a darker flooring, whether it’s hardwood, laminate, carpet or just about anything. Combine that with a darker shade of paint, blend in some low lights and perhaps some candles and you have yourself the perfect Fall appeal.
The Fall season has just about something for everyone, whether you’re going for that rustic, darker appeal or a light, friendly approach to the Autumn season. Try some different things and don’t be afraid to experiment. As always, we are just a phone call away if you want some advice.
