Abstract Artwork
Whether you’re looking for the finishing touch in one of your rooms, or simple decor inspiration, abstract art is the answer.

Vintage or Distressed Furniture
Vintage, distressed or reclaimed wood furnishings instantly add a touch of warmth and comfort to any room. If eco-consciousness is top of mind, upcycling furnishings is always a great choice, plus there are new furniture options that use reclaimed materials, such as this rustic-look nightstand.

Heavyweight Drapery
Lush, heavyweight drapery will add a hit of drama to any fall decor scheme while also being ultra-functional (read: insulating and light-blocking). Select a moody, gothic velour material or opt for a lush chenille or thick textured linen.

Goodee

Statement Lamps
Adding style and warmth to a room with a statement lamp is a trend that extends beyond the fall season. Consider these artistic yet practical items in your upcoming decor project, from sculptural lamp designs for your living room to clever desk lamps for your home office.
