Decorating for seasonal transition is one of the best things about apartment living. Although your apartment should reflect your personality, this doesn’t mean you’re locked into a specific aesthetic. In fact, the opposite is true. As a renter, you can’t make permanent changes to your apartment. Thus, all Decorating ideas must be temporary and easily put away until ready for the next year. The challenge comes from using the creativity that welcomes people into your home without looking like the decorations are fake or last minute.

What Are the Fall Apartment Trends?
In southwestern communities, there may not be much seasonal change outdoors. But that doesn’t mean you can’t express your personal style. If you like decorating for the seasons, consider using social media apps like Facebook and TikTok to follow trends. Some decorating trends are recognizable because they go viral. Others are niche-based and need time to look into. Social media helps you switch your eccentric summer decorations for unique and spooky fall decorations.
Fall Colors
Earth-tone colors in nature are visual signs of harvests and brisk temperatures. The seasonal transition from summer into fall isn’t only about fall colors. And while southwestern communities rarely experience freezing temperatures, leaves fall, and earth tones emerge that tell us changes are coming. Shades of brown and orange, like dead leaves and pumpkins, inspire feelings like being warm and cozy next to a campfire.
