DIY Decorating: How to Prep Your Guest Bath for Fall

Decorating for the seasons is not confined to just social areas of the home. The bathroom may be a private retreat, but is still one of the most daily used rooms. “Wow” your visitors with a guest bathroom that reflects the autumn season. Here are some quick ideas to revamp your space.
Personalize Your Space with Family Photos
We don’t know what it is about the fall that makes things so family focused. Perhaps it is the start of school or the spirit of holiday giving. Nonetheless, family photos add a personal charm while showcasing memories. Replace artwork with vintage (black and white will do) photos of your family.

Change Your Linens
Summer linens are lightweight to help combat scorching temperatures. Now that fall has arrived, so come the blustery weather and cooler temps. To reflect this change, incorporate towel collections with thicker fibers. Linen and microfiber are great for the fall season. Turkish towels are ideal for their luxurious feel and density.
Natural Wood Bath Accessories
Fall is all about bringing the outdoors in. Bamboo and rattan accessories (tissue holders, soap dispensers) help evoke an organic element in your guest bath. Exchange white ceramic accessories (can make you feel cold) for these warm pieces.

Found Fillers
Decorate your guest bath with autumn objects like acorns and leaves. All you need are a few glass jars/canisters to showcase your fillers. Depending on the size of your bathroom, one or two displays will do. Feel a little boring? Insert monogrammed soaps inside each canister for a more elegant design.
Fall in Love with Fall Colors
Finally, incorporate hues of fall into your bathroom. Plum, persimmon and adobe are some of this season’s fall favs. Rich and warm tones (think sunset) will help set the mood of your space, and create an sophisticate guest bath.
Tips & Takeaways
  • What better way to save money than make your own art. Take photos of fall foliage and print them in black & white
  • Organic cotton is an ideal material for its thick fibers and chemical-free quality. Always use it when you can
  • Supply fall inspired soaps and lotions like pumpkin and ginger
