Figure A
Shari and Matt bring the outdoors in with simple natural touches to add the warmth of fall to your home's entrance:
  • To add light and warmth to a stairwell, hang framed mirrors with attached candleholders. Dress them up with warm-toned candles and sprigs of fall berries or foliage for even more color (figure A).

Figure B
  • Decorate the outer treads of stairs with pinecones and bittersweet for a stylish seasonal look that's out of the way (figure B).

  • Warm floors with functional area rugs to handle the wet and dirty weather conditions.

    Figure C
  • Create a vignette with a rustic wooden chair draped with a colorful throw. Add a weathered straw hat to the chair's back and place a basket of mums and pumpkins next to it (figure C). The chair creates not only an autumnal focal point, but it's also functional for removing muddy shoes.
