Natural Branches

We often overlook the bounty of nature. Perhaps to acknowledge this gift of God, we infuse our interiors with natural elements during the Fall season.Incorporate the autumn harvest colours like red, orange and metallic while decorating your home for the season. 


Use Neutral and Warm Tones
Dried corn, dry branches, leaves, wood, fruits, flowers, vegetables, especially pumpkins, etc are used in imaginative ways both inside and outside the houses for Halloween and Thanksgiving decorations.

Fall also means decorating with bright hued interior.

You can collect fallen leaves and foliage from your garden or  during your walks in the neighbourhood and press them between books. To avoid staining your precious books, use newspapers or other papers inside the book to hold the leaf.

A vase with colourful red, maroon and golden maple leaves; or a bunch of naturally preserved soft Caspia in fiery golden orange will add pops of colour to your space.


String of Bright Leaves
Add a festive look to your room by stringing together some bright freshly plucked oak leaves and hanging them over the door or the mantle. Or simply toss a handful of leaves in a bowl to enhance your coffee table.
