'Tis the season to stock up on all things pumpkin, pinecones and maple for your home. It’s easy to get carried away with all the fresh fall finds popping up online, but we’re here to prove that you can outfit your home for the season without dipping into your retirement fund. (Please don't do that!)

The secret to adding autumnal flair to your home without breaking the bank is investing in items that enhance the focal point of your room, like a cozy seasonal comforter on your bed, a leaf-adorned doormat for your front stoop or autumnal dishtowel to hang front-and-center on your stove front throughout fall.

Another approach? Buy neutral, understated fall decor that transitions you into the winter months with ease. Fall wreaths with natural elements like pinecones, bare branches, white berry sprays or magnolia leaves check out there.

Save your money for something special, and usher autumn cheer into your home with our budget-friendly decorations that look way more expensive than they actually are.

Dial up the autumnal charm on your breakfast, entry or dining table with the help of this serving platter from Pottery Barn. The stoneware design features a classic leaf silhouette and a creamy ivory finish enhanced by a maple-brown border and glazed finish. Style the seasonal statement piece as a focal point for your table or pull it out for serving guests scrumptious pumpkin bites at your next fall fête.

Add autumn ambiance to your home with tealight candles and these gorgeous amber glass holders. Each set includes six fluted glass candle holders that look far more expensive than they are. Group the glowing holders together to create a striking dining table centerpiece, or break up the lot and scatter them throughout the house to add a touch of fall around every turn.

Fact: Our Caramel Apple Sangria tastes best when served from a stunning seasonal pitcher like this autumnal beauty by Mimi Thorisson for Anthropologie. Each mouth-blown glass pitcher boasts a rustic Italian motif in rich harvest tones like caramel, black and gold leaf. Use the artful vessel to serve up mulled cocktails and ciders, or as an unexpected base for a fall floral arrangement.
