As the heat
of summer slowly diminishes ushering the cool autumn breezes we see a shift in
the attitudes of people as well as their wardrobe colors. I don’t know about
you, but I’m already covering my room in fall scented candles and buying cute
army green and maroon sweaters in this summer weather. In addition to clothing options vibrant fall
colors are reflected in everyday products.
Here are some products that will make
you apartment, dorm room, and yourself illuminate with fall style.
iPad Mini and iPhone Cases
For the iPad or iPhone user changing your case
can be a seasonal event. I love changing up my iPhone ad iPad covers every few months, so they match my mood. Plus the covers are usually very affordable on Amazon. These covers are sure to brighten up your fall spirit.
Planners and Planner Covers
When
planning out your day or jotting down your exam dates, it is refreshing to use
a colorful and functional planner. My favorite is the Erin Condren Life
Planner. Not only are the pages cute and useful year-round,
but the company also sells interchangeable
custom covers so your planner can match your mood or the season.
Personally, I am in love with the Halloween planner covers. They are only
$10.95, and if you use my coupon link you get $10 off your order! It’s like getting a planner
cover for free! If you don’t have a life planner yet, you can use the link to
get $10 off your planner purchase instead.
Stickers and Office Supplies
Going along
with the seasonal planners, I love having seasonal stickers and office supplies to help bring me into the fall
mood. Halloween and fall washi tape are fun additions to add to calendars,
envelopes, and letters to friends. On Etsy, designers have themed sticker sets
to add to your planner or calendar. These sets make it easy to have an
Instagram-worthy layout without all of the planning. If you want fall colored
pens and markers, look for deep jewel tone sets like these jewel tone Copicmarkers.
Personalized Autumn Throw
Baby, it's cold outside, or at least a little chilly.
Being away from home has its advantages, but also its downfalls. Sharing a room
with a roommate can be a challenge. Misunderstandings about what belongs to who
has caused frustration between many roommates or even family members. The
solution is personalized products. www.keepsakes-etc.com has a number of personalized
products so that no confusion of ownership can be possible. Their personalized autumn themed throws are
perfect for keeping warm and keeping your stuff to yourself.
Handmade Decorations
Decorating
is one of life’s greatest joys. www.etsy.com is a great avenue to explore when
decorating for the fall season. They have a number of wreaths and even those very popular wooden block “FALL” letter
decorations. The great thing about this website is that the products are made
by the people selling them rather than mass produced products available in a
store. When shopping on Etsy, you are
able to support small businesses rather than huge corporations. Some of the
other fabulous products include handmade wooden turkeys and beautifully crafted
fall themed banners.
Inexpensive Decorations
Decorating
can be very expensive; however, if you know where to shop it can be a little
easier on the budget. One of my favorite places to find cheap fall items is the
Target dollar spot. They often have cute and colorful window clings and pieces
to decorate your desk. If you don’t have a Target nearby, www.partycity.com has
a number of inexpensive party ideas that can be translated into beautiful
decorations for your home. Fabric leaves and woodland friends can help add a
dash of warmth to the room. This particular
website also offers a vast amount of decorating ideas for your
convenience should you be among the not so creative types.
Fall is a
wonderful time full of color and many outdoor activities. Roaming the halls of
your school can be a bit boring if all you see is the same thing over and over
again, so spice up you room as well as your person with these and other great autumn-themed decorating ideas.
