Where do I find affordable seasonal decor items?
Q- I want to decorate my space with a seasonal feel without having to paint or do other highly labor intensive jobs. My solution is to add seasonal decor items. Do you have any suggestions on where I can find affordable statement pieces as well as item ideas that will help bring in that beautiful autumn feel?
A- Autumn is a beautiful, colorful time, so it is understandable that you would want to incorporate that into your home. I understand your desire to want to keep it simple and affordable, while still brining in the special feel of the fall. Fortunately, it is possible to transform your space without it being a major expense or undertaking.
My first suggestion is to visit your local florist offering home decor items. Florists shops change their items seasonally and are usually very on-trend when looking for the hottest seasonal colors. Another advantage is that since they do tend to follow the seasons so closely and need to clear out inventory rather quickly; their prices tend to be much more reasonable.
Next, look for items that are easily changed and add a seasonal feel without being holiday specific. When you do this, you can extend the time of usage or otherwise incorporate it into your space. Look for beautiful and uniquely scented candles, rustic mirrors, and of course the lovely jeweled hues of the season. It can be something as simple as adding some vibrant sunflower colored pillows to the seating or setting off a space with mason jar organizers that call attention to the harvest season.
The choices are as limitless as your imagination, so dig in deep, find your inner decorator, and enjoy
