The $100 Fall Home Refresh

You don't need a shopping cart full of seasonal décor to give your home a fresh look for fall. With about $100 and a little creativity, you can make a noticeable difference.
Start at the front door. Spend $25–$30 on a new doormat or seasonal wreath. Add a few pumpkins from a local market or grocery store and you've created an inviting entrance without covering the porch in decorations.
Bring fall indoors with texture. A new throw blanket and a couple of pillow covers can change the feel of a living room for around $30. Look for warm neutrals, plaids or deeper shades that work with what you already own.
Swap out a few everyday details. Use the remaining budget for something small but noticeable — new kitchen towels, a fall centerpiece, a cozy candle or even fresh mums for the dining table.
The trick is not trying to decorate every room. Pick two or three areas you see and use the most, then make a few intentional changes.
And remember, fall decorating doesn't have to mean orange pumpkins everywhere. Natural wood, greenery, branches, woven textures and warmer fabrics can make a home feel seasonal while still fitting your personal style.
A little change can make home feel new again — and $100 is plenty to get started.
