Festive and Neutral Fall Decor for Your Home
Today is my BIRTHDAY! 🥳 And the first FULL day of fall. I take great pride in my birthday being the first (full) day of fall, haha. I almost always have perfect early fall weather on my birthday, and today is no exception. In addition to the nice weather, September is a fun month with tons of activities and things to do in Boise, and boy have I been busy this month. I’ve had events going on every weekend so far!
Now that we are officially in astronomical fall, I’ve had all things fall on my mind, including home decor. I don’t really decorate my home at any time of year except for the holidays (and even then, I only decorate in the living room and nowhere else), but for some reason I love writing these home decor posts around fall every year and pulling out my one box of fall decor. There’s just something super cozy and comforting about doing a fall home refresh when the weather cools down.
While I love all of the typical deep auburn browns, earthy greens, and shades of rusty orange that make up most fall decor, I also love neutral items that I can keep out year-round. Below, I rounded up some of my favorite festive and neutral fall decor for your home (and it’s all from Target)!
Neutral Fall Decor at Target
There’s just something about fall at Target. It’s magical, isn’t it?! I always end up wanting the entire store, haha! They do fall decor so well. When it comes to seasonal home decor, I’m personally not a big of Halloween and tend to gravitate towards more neutral fall decor to Halloween decor. I love to add interest through various textures (wood, faux fur, velvet, cable knit, glass, etc.) and colors (while sticking to a relatively cohesive color palette).
Shop my 10 favorite neutral fall decor products for your home at Target:
Small Ceramic Pumpkin (Shop all Decorative Objects)
If you’re looking for a small yet heavy item to add to your neutral decor this fall, this cream ceramic pumpkin is a great option. I can picture this sitting on top of a stack of books!
Small Woven Pumpkin (Shop all Decorative Objects)
I love the texture that this small woven pumpkin adds to a home! Adding this pumpkin is a great way to spice up your neutral fall decor. This pumpkin would look good on a bookshelf or in a centerpiece on your dining room table.
Fall Scented Candle (Shop All Fall Candles)
I recently purchased the Warm Cider and Cinnamon candle and OMG, it is such a wonderful fall scent! I love it so much and am going to buy a couple more so I’m well stocked for the rest of this fall (and maybe even next fall haha). Plus, the price can’t be beat—only $6 for the 11 ounce candle! I have the 11 ounce size and it fills our main living space up with its lovely fall scent.
Fall Scented Pumpkin Glass Candle (Shop All Fall Candles)
Did you know that Target makes their fall scented candles available in these really fun and festive glass pumpkin jars?! I’m really tempted to try the Vanilla Pumpkin scent; the slightly tinted clear glass is the perfect neutral touch. Plus, it’s functional well after the candle is out as cute fall storage for candy or other goodies.
Mango Wood Leaf Serving Board (Shop All Fall Harvest Collection)
How cute and festive is this serving board?! It’s the perfect backdrop to your fall cheese platter or holiday meal. The rich brown colors are so gorgeous and the perfect neutral wood.
Small Hops Arrangement (Shop All Decorative Objects)
I did throw in a little bit of color with this fun faux hops arrangement, but the vase is a neutral beige with a bit of texture so it counts as neutral decor. If you’re looking for a simple and somewhat subtle “pop” of color (not my favorite phrase, but you know what I mean) for your space, this would be a fun addition.
Ceramic Bottle Vases (Shop All Decorative Objects)
If you love to lean into all the moody fall vibes, this set of 3 matte black ceramic bottle vases would make the perfect neutral fall decor for you! You can add faux stems to them or let them shine all on their own on your fireplace mantel.
Faux Fur Lumbar Throw Pillow (Shop All Throw Pillows)
There’s something about faux fur that I just cannot get enough of during the fall and winter months! I love it so much. The striped detailing on this faux fur lumbar pillow make it extra special, and it comes in the prettiest light neutral colors that go with anything.
Textured Faux Fur Throw Blanket (Shop All Throw Blankets)
Okay, this blanket is also faux fur, but can you blame me?! Faux fur is definitely not the most family- or pet-friendly fabric (seriously, how do you wash it without ruining it?), but it is nice to look at and enjoy. I love keeping a faux fur blanket draped on my couch for the aesthetic (and my cats like it for the cozy cuddling).
Round Rattan Decorative Basket (Shop All Decorative Storage)
If you need a festive way to corral a bunch of fall blankets or pillows, this rattan decorative basket is perfect! This basket can easily be left out year round. I’m bummed this doesn’t fit the vibes of my home. Please buy it so I can live vicariously through you. 😉
Where do you purchase your festive and neutral fall decor? Even though Target is always my go-to for fall decor, I’d love to hear what other retailers offer fabulous products for fall!
