Check Out 6 Fall Exterior Home Decorating Tips.

Color:

Olive Green, Kelly Green,… really any green, Peacock Blue, and Burnt Orange are making a comeback this Fall and heading into 2020.  Paint your front door or change out the summer pillows on your outdoor furniture and add some fun. Don’t be afraid to use velvet or an Aztec print to bring your space to life.

Wood Accents:

Wood, wood, and more wood… yes please! Wooden doors, wooden columns, wooden accent walls, wooden gables and porch accents, and even wood outdoor furniture are huge game changers this year, especially moving into Fall. Natural teak hardwood porch furniture is always in style.  Another easy way to achieve the wood accent, buy a wooden planter and pop your Mums right inside.

Adirondack Chairs and Throw Blankets:

Yup. Just when you thought summer was over… this Fall we are seeing an upswing in Adirondack sales.  Not surprising considering they’re well made, comfortable for all sizes, come in a variety of colors, weather resistant, have matching foot rests, and are easy to move from one place to another.  This Fall put your Adirondack chair around your outdoor fireplace, pair with a comfy throw blanket, and call it a night!

Comfy Outdoor Furniture… Bring the Inside, Out:

This Fall, more than ever, people are in search of a comfortable outdoor space.  That said, we are bringing the indoor amenities to your outdoor space.  Have you heard of the Oasis Sofa? If not, you’re in for a treat.  I had my first experience with an Oasis Sofa after attending an outdoor party in the neighborhood.  The sofas are made of marine grade plywood, with foam core cushions covered in water repellent wrap.  It is recommended the sofa stay covered when not in use; however for a pretty penny the Oasis can create the warmth of inside living in your outdoor space.

Lanterns and Outdoor Twinkle Lights:

Lighting is key to a comfortable outside space.  Because of this, lanterns are becoming more and more popular, not only for inside decor but also outside.  They provide the perfect amount of illumination without being too stark or bright.  These Caleb Lanterns are not only beautiful but also movable and functional.  Pair your new lanterns with string lights and let the good times roll!

Fire Pits and Outdoor Fireplaces:

Nothing says Fall like an outdoor fire pit.  We have noticed an upswing in clients asking for outdoor fire pit suggestions.  Some are movable and even gas powered.  Others are more rustic and built stationary with pavers or bricks.  Whatever your taste, a fire pit is a great way to bring people together.
