The leaves change, and the crisp air blows in. Autumn sparks that natural instinct to cozy up your home for the upcoming winter holidays. While you might admire your empty walls, you also can't help but wonder how to reframe that earthy autumn magic within your own space. New gallery wall ideas are hands down the ideal way to change your dull house into a cozy haven.

Let's learn a few easy tips on how to incorporate autumn into your home.

Leverage Warm, Earth Tones

Your fall decor palette is centered around warm and inviting shades. Moving away from fluorescent whites and neons, embrace abundant hues of warm browns, vibrant oranges, and subtle greens.

1. Bring in Wooden Finishes

A pop of wood makes all the difference to a cool-colored room. Elegant wood borders instantly introduce natural earthy textures to your space. You'll quickly notice how much more inviting your home feels once you install these natural accents. Explore our standard collection of picture frames and discover the rustic finish to complement your artistic prints.

2. Highlight Canvas Art

Canvas is a fantastic way to add texture and richness into your seasonal gallery wall. For the right touch of rustic inspiration, add warm canvas print wraps into your grid layout. This simple textured touch can add a touch of rustic charm to your seasonal wall decor. Read our guide for more on hanging canvas art.

Construct an Organic Layout

You are not a fan of square and grid arrangements. Fall invites curves and a cozy allurement. A relaxed gallery wall allows your home to feel as charming as that comfy sweater you wear on frosty autumn nights

3. Center Around One Large and Striking Item

Rather than beginning with multiple items, develop a display by balancing one large square or rectangle with more compact designs. A bold focal point to everything else will feel right at home for your finished visual collection. Need to figure out the perfect sized item?

4. Mix vintage and modern frames

Vintage picture frame styles alongside contemporary borders will bring a warm and pleasing feeling to your space. Having a photo collection as eclectic as your favorite frock makes your living room inviting. Consider a casual juxtaposition that mimics the stunning array of colors falling from the trees every autumn. 

5. Build Interest with Matting 

Choose and customize a photo mat to add an extra splash of color around each photo. Whether the color is deep and green or light and rich, these simple additions will help every photo to sing while also integrating it into the neutral background.

6. Use Mixed Media

Why not hang more than photos? The best gallery wall layouts combine interesting objects with photographs. Try hanging a pressed autumn leaf next to your great-grandma's favorite recipe next to your treasured memories. You can get inspired with ideas from Pinterest for your next gallery wall layout.
