Invite Fall Indoors With Glamorous Gourds & More

Orange Pumpkins Are Passé: Chic Interior Accessories That Bring Autumn Vibes Inside

Autumn decor is a favorite of ours with its warm colors, rich textures and organic themes. Less glitzy than Christmas and more toned down than summer, natural elements take center stage. For many families, squash, pumpkins and other gourds serve nicely as seasonal traditions.

Live, freshly harvested and intact gourds should have a lifespan of eight to twelve weeks, but if they’re the centerpiece of your fall decor, you’ll have to cross your fingers at the farmstand each year in the hopes of finding the right size, shape and color for your mantel or tablescape.

That’s why we love seasonal interior accessories that nod to the harvest traditions of autumn, but enjoy an infinite lifespan. Here are some of the ways we bring fall aesthetics into our homes each year.

Warm Hues

While we’d love to redecorate our homes for each season, quarterly paint jobs and reupholstery treatments just aren’t worth the headache. But you can still bring warm, autumnal hues indoors—shades of burnt orange, rich chocolate browns and muted reds like burgundy and wine—by rotating your accents. Switch a summery coral or royal blue throw for a deeper colored blanket on a neutral-colored armchair or sofa. Swap out silver accent accessories for golds. Your mantel and dining table are two surfaces where you have the most room to get creative and playful with the tableaus you create: make a bold statement here that can speak for your whole room.

Immortal Organics

Making wonderful exterior decorations all autumn long, we are in love with harvest fruits like pumpkins and squash. But in an elegantly appointed interior, there are more sophisticated upgrades available. One of our favorites is Hot Skwash by Daria, a unique line of plush nature-inspired figurines available in a wide range of colors, fabrics and sizes. With a palette as diverse as nature and luxe accents including feathers, Swarovski crystals and intricate beadwork, Hot Skwash table decor is an elevated version of a mini-pumpkin tableau for a one-of-a-kind tablescape.

As an exclusive retailer of Simon Pearce glassware, we are also fortunate to have access to the line’s stunning collection of autumnal-inspired artifacts, which include the glittering pumpkin, willow pumpkin, glass gourd and glass acorn. Like all Simon Pearce glassware, these handcrafted, crystal-clear sculptures will reflect any environment where you stage them, capturing and throwing light so that everything around each piece glitters. They’re the perfect addition to bring light into any room in a season that can frequently be gloomy and overcast.
