Colorful Autumn Additions

Colorful Autumn Additions

(Family Features)--A nip in the air and the changing color of leaves can only mean one thing --
fall is around the corner.

While dusting off your favorite sweaters and corduroys, don't forget to dress up your home
décor as well. Here are some tips from Jo-Ann Fabric and Craft Stores to bring the cozy charm
of autumn into your home:
Pull in nature. This season is all about celebrating nature's bounty, so bring that celebration
home. Pumpkins and gourds of every shape and color make inexpensive additions that
brighten any tabletop or mantle. Or, place as many of these beloved squashes as you can on
a bale of hay outside the front door for a display the whole neighborhood can enjoy.

Try transitional pieces. Situated right before the busy holiday season, some fall styles can be
eased into both decorating schemes. Rich, wine-colored berries and bittersweet arrangements
look wonderful for both fall and winter.

Add new color trends. According to color experts, fall 2013 will be a season filled with
vibrant purples, bright blues and dazzling greens. These colors blend perfectly with the
autumn décor you already own. Watch as plum hues pop when paired with the traditional fall
foliage of burnt orange, copper, gold and brown. Create your own glittering display with this
Colorful Candle Ring, which features lively, on-trend hues certain to make your fall more
glamorous.
