Seasonal decor is a wonderful way to bring the elements associated with the weather and festivities into your home. When it comes to celebrating fall, there are tons of creative ways to showcase the season’s magnificent colors.
Decor ideas for fall often focus on holidays like Halloween or Thanksgiving, but there are alternative ways to decorate your home for fall that showcase the beauty of the entire season.
Dried fall flowers are perfect for enhancing your traditional seasonal decor. Not only are they beautiful and available in an array of colors, dried fall flowers are usually less expensive and longer lasting than fresh flowers, making them a great choice for decor pieces.
If you have never attempted to use dried flowers in a decor theme, this fall is the perfect opportunity to incorporate them into your home aesthetic.
Ways To Use Dried Fall Flowers
When it comes to adding a personal touch to your home using dried fall flowers, you can be as simple or extravagant as you wish. Whether you stick to pampas grass or go wild with lagurus, bunny tails, hydrangeas, or wildflowers, you can showcase the season in a creative and meaningful way.
If you are a beginner with dried flowers you may want to start with an arrangement suitable for a vase or centerpiece. On the other hand, if you are a more seasoned decorator or are looking for a challenge, dried flowers can be turned into eye-catching ornaments or props.
The Classic Vase Arrangement
Using a vase to display your dried fall floral arrangement may seem ordinary because it's how most indoor flowers are housed, but what if, instead of a vase, you used a large bowl or a terrarium? Look around your home for vessels you may never have thought of to make a unique display.
By changing the base of your arrangement, you can create an aesthetic that fits your personal style without straying too far from tradition, or you can build a one-of-a-kind display.
A Dried Flower Wreath
You can make gorgeous seasonal wreaths using dried flowers. For a fall-themed wreath, many dried flower types would be perfect, but you can also incorporate twigs, leaves, pinecones, and other natural materials to create a stunning fall door showpiece. To create the wreath yourself, you will need to select and gather the dried flowers, a wreath form, and other supplies. You will also need to set aside some time for assembly.
If you lack an eye for design or simply wish to have expert assistance creating your fall-themed arrangement, Flower Works offers several beautiful flower arrangements with fresh flowers and a dried flower wreath option for fall. Our fall wreath features a mix of dried flowers from our very own exclusive dried collection, so you are guaranteed high-quality blooms, arranged with care and expertise. Our staff treats floral arrangements like an art form – matching nature with creativity to make customers' visions a reality.

This season is all about dark and moody hues that give a spooky look to floral arrangements. Colors such as purple, maroon, black, or dark blue hues give a different twist to a dark and moody arrangement. You can then add other pops of color, such as different shades of red, oranges, and even yellows.

With the coming of the fall season comes a plethora of colors, such as golden yellow, maroon, crimson, bright orange, and russet brown. These colors can be reflected in the changing leaves, pumpkins, gourds, and florals of the season. Even if you are not a florist, you can create beautiful centerpieces to use as decorations for your harvest festival celebrations.
