Your home's autumnal glow up

Plus, the right time to order furniture, according to our experts. Photo by West Elm / Bouqs / Reviewed I’ve never been an end-of-summer apologist. I’m the one who embraces all things fall the minute I sense an autumn breeze in the air. So while many people are soaking up the last official bits of summer this week, I’m skipping straight to Saturday’s equinox and decorating for the new season. You know, breaking out the jewel-toned blankets, pulling out pumpkin pillows, and slapping [paper bats]( all over my walls. For those joining me in this early-fall phenomenon, take [our experts’ advice on autumnal home decor]( to make your place feel cozier (but if you’re thinking of buying furniture, heed our warning below). And go ahead and bookmark [our tips for taking care of those mums]( you’ll impulse buy at the grocery store in a week or two.

Read this first As the holidays approach, you might be thinking of upgrading your dining room table to fit all your guests or switching out the bed frame in your guest room for something a little nicer. It takes time to pick out the pieces that perfectly match what you’re looking for size- and style-wise, sure, but there are a few other factors at play that may make you want to speed up the process. When you’re buying furniture, be sure to take shipping times into account. You’ll want to make sure that the shipping time retailers predict, plus a few extra weeks of wiggle room, is within your range. After all, you never know what could happen—natural disasters have slowed shipping times before, and they’ll likely do it again. If you need something ASAP, we highly recommend going in person to find something rather than taking the gamble on shipping. Stores like [West Elm]( and [Pottery Barn]( have outlets with lots of options, so you’ll be able to find what you need without waiting for it to arrive.
