There’s something about fall that just makes you feel cozy and happy. Maybe it’s the leaves changing color, the cool breeze in the air, or the pumpkin spice in the air. Whatever it is, people love to decorate for fall and make their homes feel like fall. Here are a few ideas on how to create a fall mood in your house.

The first way to set the mood of fall is by carving pumpkins. While you can carve Halloween pumpkins, some people choose to carve them with designs or messages for Thanksgiving. You can either make them small and put them on your front porch or make a big one and put it on your kitchen table.

When you’re done carving pumpkins, it’s time to light them up. If you want your house to smell like pumpkin spice, then grab some scented candles and place them around the pumpkin. The pumpkin will not only make your house smell nice, but it will set the mood for fall as well.

Speaking of scents, another way to create a fall mood is by placing scented wax tarts around the house. You can put them in your kitchen or living room, for example. The nice thing about these is that you can also change the scent based on what holiday it is.

As you light up your pumpkins and place scented wax tarts around the house, it’s time to decorate. You can put up your fall decorations such as scarecrows and hay bales, but you can also decorate for Thanksgiving by putting out a cornucopia.

Lastly, don’t forget about the changing colors of leaves! Grab some autumn-colored vases and put some leaves in them. Place them around the house for a nice pop of color.

By creating a fall mood at your home, you won’t feel like sticking to one holiday. The fall mood will make it feel like it’s Thanksgiving, Halloween, and Christmas all at the same time. Once you set the mood of fall in your home, you’ll never want to leave!
