3 Stylish Fireplace Decor Ideas for Fall
Decorating for fall can be a bit tricky, especially if you want to decorate like an #adulting boss and do more than place a few pumpkins around the house. Whether you’re lucky enough to have a toasty warm hearth with a mantel, or you’re trying to get creative with a non-working fireplace, here are three ways to help get your fireplace in the autumnal spirit. This week’s edition of Decor Resolutions will show you how to transform your living room with fall-tastic accessories like pretty wreaths, mood-setting candles and a pumpkin or two. Scroll on to see how we’d style the mantel for a boho-chic home, minimalist abode and preppy space.
Feathers are a fun textural addition to any fall motif. They’re soft, a bit wild and can go elegant or super boho, depending on how you style them. Set up a “bouquet” of feathers in a glass vase and arrange an eclectic mix of rose gold pumpkins and copper candlesticks along the mantel. Brighten up the space with a pinecone garland and copper picture frames featuring your loved ones. If you have enough room, set up a faux fur stool (complete with cozy throw blankets, of course) where guests can sit and enjoy the view.

HOW TO DECORATE A MINIMALIST FIREPLACE
Incorporate a neutral color palette, such as sage green and white, then punctuate it with chic black lanterns and silver elements to create a unified color story that’s totally on point for a minimalist vibe. If you’d like to try something other than pumpkins, why not evoke the spirit of the season with branch-shaped candlesticks, a color-dipped buffalo figurine and a copper light garland. Even if you have a non-working fireplace, a pile of birch bark logs brings a touch of coziness to the space.

HOW TO DECORATE A PREPPY FIREPLACE
A gold metallic motif is a chic way to take your mantel from summer to fall. Adding gold to your black and pink combo feels festive, sophisticated and totally fall-tastic. Consider spray-painting or gold-leafing some thrift store accessories, and bring in gilded lanterns or gold tea light candles for a little sparkle. Seal the deal with a tasseled garland, a basket full of throw blankets and a leafy wreath. This fall is going to be a cozy one.
