Pink Fall Decor: 9 Easy Ways to Style Your Home

I have decorated our home with pink fall decor for several years now, and I still love it every single time. Last year, I decorated our Thanksgiving table with velvet blush pink pumpkins, and I fell in love with that table setting. This year, I brought the same soft pink into our kitchen and living room with white pumpkins, pink candles, and some beautiful flowers. Here are 9 easy ways to style pink fall decor in your own home.

Pink Fall Decor

I am so ready to cozy up with warm sweaters and a hot cup of cocoa even though we live in Arizona! Our summers are super long, and we cannot see the “season change” until mid-October!

Although we don’t get to see the leaves start changing colors in Scottsdale and Phoenix, the nights start getting longer and a little cooler. Those “cooler nights” make me excited to start decorating our home for fall! You are probably planning on changing the linens, pillow covers, and everything that will cozy up your space.

When it comes down to fall decor, people usually think of traditional fall colors like orange, brown, beige, yellow, etc… However, I feel like in the past few years, so many people are getting tired of the traditional orange color for fall decorations. They just want to go for something different!

Many home decor brands, designers, and bloggers are starting to create new fall decor color palettes and ideas. I have noticed a lot of people embracing trendy fall color schemes and coming up with super colorful fall decoration ideas!

Either for the front porch decor, the living room, bedrooms, or the kitchen! More and more people are buying “pink pumpkins” and decorating them with pink flowers (or other colorful flowers). Or they simply like to purchase colorful pumpkins (pink, purple, yellow, blue….) and create a stunning fall decor!

Tip #1: Buy Some Cute Pink Pumpkins

Pumpkins are an essential part of fall decorating. They come in different colors, shapes, and sizes. Of course, you can’t buy fresh pink pumpkins (LOL)!

However, you can order some cute pink pumpkin decor on Etsy or any other online store! If you are a crafty person, you can also have a little fun DIY project: buy white faux pumpkins and color them in many shades of pink that you would like!

The idea is to decorate your mantel, dining table, centerpiece, or your kitchen with these pumpkins to give a feeling of warmth and radiate a chic look.

Tip #2: Use a Decorative Tray to Create Contrast

Using a decorative woven tray, or any other decorative tray, is a wonderful way to create contrast with your pink pumpkins. Not only do decorative trays add such a beautiful design element to your fall decor, but they are also perfect for keeping your pumpkins in one place!

You can use a cute decorative woven tray as a centerpiece display on your coffee table or kitchen counter. It is a great look if you are looking to design a perfect minimalist fall decor. Using a decorative tray is also a good idea if you are trying to create a boho fall decor.

Some people like to hang one or two decorative woven trays on their kitchen or living room walls and add some pumpkins to them. I think this is such a cute idea!!!

Lastly, you can use a decorative tray to create beautiful natural fall home decor. If you do not like to add pumpkins to your tray, you can simply add some fall flowers.

You can either find high-quality decorative trays in stores like Crate and Barrel, Pottery Barn, and Wayfair (I also love this set of two). Or you can find something cute and not that expensive on Amazon, Hobby Lobby, or Michael’s! I also LOVE Etsy!

These places, and others, will give you plenty of options! If you are also decorating your porch or courtyard with pink pumpkins, you can use waterproof white baskets to store your pumpkins.

Tip #3: Pink Fall Garland and Wreaths

Wreaths and garlands add so much to your fall decor! For our outdoor decor, I use garlands and wreaths on our front courtyard gates and front door.

For our indoor decor, I use them in our kitchen and on the fireplace mantel. While wreaths are perfect for your front door, they can also be perfect for inside your house!

Pink fall wreaths and garlands are harder to find! I usually look for them on Etsy! I found the cutest pink fall wreath on Etsy last year that I absolutely loved!!!

Etsy has many talented designers who can design a custom order for you! Throughout all these years, I have found several cute home decor pieces on Etsy.

If they do not have the color that I want, I usually ask the designer if he/she can make the color that I’m looking for….! I was able to get the color that I wanted about 75% of the time!

So don’t be shy to ask for your favorite color! If you are not a big fan of Etsy, you can find cute pink wreaths and garlands on Amazon, Michaels, Hobby Lobby, JOANN, Target, or some other retailers.

Creative Ways to Decorate Using Garlands and Wreaths

You can hang your garlands on your window frames. It adds beauty to the windows. If you have staircases in your house, adding garlands to your staircase will bring so much beauty, color, and fall charms to your house!

If you like to use wreaths instead, you can hang them at the front door, entryway, living room, dining room, fireplace mantel, and kitchen to cozy up your home. I personally like to combine my wreaths and garlands together to bring so many colors to our fireplace mantel and living room.

Tip #4: Add Pink Candles and Candelabras

Candles are the easiest way to cozy up your living room. Of course, candles can be burned at any time of the year. However, there is a special place for them during the fall and winter seasons as they add more charm and coziness to your fall decor. I have different candelabras at home.

However, my favorite ones are the individual candelabras that I can stack up together to create different highest. Putting a few different candelabras with pumpkins and flowers is all you need to style a chic fall centerpiece for your coffee table or your kitchen counter.

If you want to bring a little rustic fall flair to your table, a wooden candle holder is a perfect addition to your decor. There are a variety of fall-themed candle holders to choose from, including ones with acorns, leaves, and apples.

You can use any shade of pink candles. I like to use soft blush pink candles. They are so beautiful and go perfectly with these light pink velvet pumpkins. You can decorate your mantel, shelves, windowsills, and other indoor areas with an array of candles.

Decorate Your Living Room with Candles

It is always a good idea to welcome your guests with soft candle lights as they enter your home. You can arrange your candles on your coffee table centerpiece. You can also put the candles in jars and placed them on a wooden tray with blush pink pumpkins. This can be replicated for your dining table decorations.

Decorate Your Mantel with Candles

The mantel is one of the first places to decorate during the fall season. I place my candles in between my pumpkins and leaves on our fireplace mantel. It creates such a beautiful look on top of our fireplace.

Decorate Kitchen Counter with Candles

After decorating our fireplace mantel, I decorate our kitchen counter for fall! This is where I see our fall decor every day. I try to style a little centerpiece with pumpkins, candles, and flowers!

Tip #5: Add Lanterns

Using beautiful lanterns is always a good idea when decorating for fall! I usually like to stack up some pumpkins next to my lanterns. It is such a cute idea for this time of year!

Also, if you are into “pink Halloween decor”, you can use lanterns and make it all spooky and pink! You can stack some pink pumpkins and giant fake spiders on the lanterns.

The good thing about this fall decor idea is that it can be applied both to indoor and outdoor decoration. Here are some inspirations for you when you want to decorate with lanterns:

Exterior Illumination Lantern: Exterior illumination with lanterns is one way to brighten up your outdoor fall decor. I think this is such a fun idea!!! It also helps to pop your exterior decoration.

Lantern table decoration: I love to use smaller lanterns for table decor. You can style two or three lanterns together and add a few pumpkins to this setup. Your centerpiece is ready to go! The other idea is that you can create a centerpiece by using a long basket. You can then put two small lanterns together, add some fresh or faux leaves, and finally add your pumpkins.

Use LED Decorative Lantern: Ahhh! I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE LED candlelight lanterns that are operated by battery! Most of them are waterproof, and you can use them inside or outside. Place some pumpkins by your led lanterns and create a cute and cozy fall corner!

Tip #6: Add Pink Fall Pillows and Throws

Another idea to create a beautiful blush pink fall decor is using pink pillows and throws. These are a great addition to your sofa or chair. I personally love blush pink throws and pillows.

However, if you are more into “hot pink”, vs softer blush pink then go with that shade of pink! Although finding pink pumpkins can be a little tricky, finding pink pillows and blankets is so easy! You can find them at most home decor stores or on Amazon!

If you have an outdoor sitting area, you can also add a couple of pink pillows and a blanket to your outdoor chairs and create a cozy corner! You can always mix and match the pillows and blankets. You can consider mixing velvet pillows and wool blankets. Or simply use choose the same material for both blankets and pillows.

Blend Pink Fall Throw and Pillow with Other Colors

I love to mix and match colors for Fall! If you are decorating your outdoor space or indoor, you can always add other colors to compliment your pink fall decor! For example, soft orange and blush pink complement each other so nicely!

You can get a light pink pillow or (pillow cover), and style it with a beautiful soft orange blanket! Try mixing orange, pink, and white pillows together! There is no need to stick with only pink as your main color! Feel free to mix and match with colors that complement pink and will be a good fit for fall!

The bottom line is if you love to spend your weekends lounging on the couch with a cup of tea and Netflix, a cozy throw blanket is a great option for your fall decor. Not only is a blanket a great way to add a pop of color to your space, but they are also the perfect way to stay warm and cozy during the cooler fall and winter months.

Tip #7: Add Greenery to Your Pumpkins

Why should you add greenery to your fall decor? Adding greenery to your pumpkins creates a natural and rustic look to your decor and makes it look so beautiful. I also love how greenery adds more texture and color to your overall fall decor.

Your pink pumpkins will pop even more when you add some greenery to them. I usually get faux greenery, so they last the entire season without changing any color!

You can also use fresh greenery if you prefer not to use faux ones! Personally, I love to use a beautiful fall leaf garland and place it on top of our fireplace mantel. Then I place my pumpkins in between the leaves!

Tip #8: Display Baked Goodies and Pumpkins

Baking is a great way to bring fall vibes into your home. My sister is very good at bringing the joy of fall to her home by baking fall favorite treats. You can smell the scent of cinnamon spice and pumpkin pie when you first walk into her home.

I think this is a great idea to bring incredible fall vibes to your house! Once you bake your favorite fall cookies and pies, you can place them next to your beautiful pink pumpkins. Baked goods are an easy way to add fall flair to your decor.

There are endless recipes for autumn-themed baked goods, like apple pies, pumpkin-spice cookies, and more. If you don’t know how to bake, like me (LOL), You can also buy fall treats and display them on your coffee table or the kitchen counter.

Consider setting up a baked treats display. Baked cookie displays are typically wooden tray that holds a few different types of cookies and treats. You can find these in just about any store and they are great for keeping your treats fresh.

Tip #9: Lighted Decorations for Nighttime

You may want to consider adding a few lighted decorations to your home. If you love to spend time in your backyard or a patio (like our family), bringing in some lighted decorations is a great way to extend the season.

If you love spending time outside, consider bringing some string lights to set the mood. We added a bunch of string lights in our courtyard and our backyard this fall! We absolutely love the way it looks!

You can even bring these lights into the kitchen or dining room to create a cozy atmosphere. Try hanging string lights over a table or around the room to create a beautiful ambiance.

Colors That Go With Pink for Fall

Pink on its own can feel a little springy, so I always pair it with deeper fall colors. These are the combinations I keep coming back to in our home.

Pink and orange: My favorite pairing. Orange ranunculus next to blush pink pumpkins feels fun and still very fall.
Pink and white: Soft and romantic. White pumpkins and cream throws keep pink from looking too sweet.
Pink and gold: Gold candlesticks and brass accents make pink look a little dressier, especially on a mantel or dining table.
Pink and burgundy: A great choice if you want a moodier, cozier look for Thanksgiving.
Pink and natural textures: Dried grasses, pampas, wood lanterns, and bittersweet berries make pink feel earthy and seasonal.

Pink Fall Decor FAQs

Is pink a fall color?

Pink isn’t a traditional fall color, but it works so well for fall decor when you pair it with warmer tones. Blush pink next to orange, gold, cream, and natural textures still feels seasonal, just softer and more romantic than the usual orange and brown.

What colors go with pink for fall decor?

My favorite colors to pair with pink for fall are orange, white, cream, gold, and burgundy. Dried grasses, wood, and berries also help pink feel earthy instead of springy.

How do you make pink decor feel like fall and not spring?

Stick to dusty or blush pinks instead of bright pastels, and use fall textures like velvet, feathers, and dried stems. A few orange or burgundy accents and some candlelight make a big difference.

Where can I find pink pumpkins?

Fresh pumpkins don’t come in pink, so I use velvet and faux pumpkins. You can find them at home decor stores, on Amazon, and on Etsy, and they last for years. I linked some of my favorites in the shop section at the end of this post.

What is the easiest way to start decorating with pink for fall?

Start small with a few pink velvet pumpkins, pink taper candles, and one cozy pink throw. Group them on your coffee table, kitchen counter, or mantel, and add more pieces once you see how you like the look.

Can I use pink fall decor for Halloween too?

Yes! The same pink pumpkins can stay out through Halloween. Add a wood lantern or some orange flowers, and it feels festive without being spooky.

If you are a pink lover like me and would like to style a beautiful pink fall decor around your house, I hope this post was helpful! Not only does this beautiful color reflect the fall season perfectly, but it also has a romantic feel that is sure to make you feel loved. Start decorating today and enjoy the season in style!
