home decorations for fall

Decorating your home for fall does not have to be a big event or very expensive. As the Crate & Barrel catalog comes in the mail and you are tempted to buy all the new furniture, remember the orange and brown of fall is going to be replaced by the reds and greens for Christmas at the end of October. Fall home decorations can be as simple as a bag of potpourri in a fragrance like cider apple, pumpkin pie, or plums and berries.
Potpourri can be bought from flower stores, supermarkets and department stores. Try to choose some with fall colors and interesting shapes and place it in hallways to greet guests as soon as they walk through your front door. You'll be surprised at the warming effect this has.
