Halloween is right around the corner, which means the holiday season has begun. To avoid the stressful rush of overpriced last-minute decorations, why not try your hand at creating your own with trending decor ideas that translate from Halloween into Thanksgiving. Here are quick and easy Fall decor ideas to transform your apartment living space at The Cordelia Apartments.
Why DIY?
So why DIY decorations? There are many reasons to make your festive decorations, including cost-effectiveness, sustainability purposes, and having unique interior decor that nobody else will have this Fall season.
Another benefit is the sense of creativity that comes from homemade decorations. When a person activates their imagination, they may even improve their overall health by increasing their brain function and physical and mental wellbeing. Having a sense of ownership and gratitude towards your DIY creations will trickle over the whole Fall 2021 holiday season, making it more enjoyable and less stressful.
Get Inspired By These Decor Ideas
Pumpkins are a traditional representation of Halloween, but how can you make them correlate with Thanksgiving? There are several fun ways to reinvent the pumpkin to suit both holidays and your interior decor.
Why not try a different color scheme that’s unique and chic? Paint alternating mini pumpkins in black and white and scatter them in bunches on your dining and coffee table. Pair the pumpkins with tall black candles for the dining table and small white candles for the coffee table. You can shop locally and grab some autumnal scented candles that transition effortlessly from one season to the next.
If traditional Fall colors are more your vibe, gather a few large and midsized orange pumpkins from The Pumpkin Patch on Sauvie Island and create holes near the stem, where you can insert berry branches. This aesthetic works best when pumpkin berry branches are coupled in threes. Place these beautiful either on the dining table or scattered throughout your apartment living space.
Plan Your Festive Fall Creations
Even for the easiest Fall decor, a little planning never goes astray. Set aside an afternoon to gather your materials from your local Portland shop. Start creating your homemade Halloween and Thanksgiving decorations effortlessly and with ease. Enjoy the Fall 2021 festive season, feeling happy and proud of your holiday trending decor!
