Are you seeking inspiration to add some unique fall decor to your home? Take a look at these 13 neutral fall decor ideas that will add an extra special touch to your space. Discover why these pieces are so exceptional, and get your home ready for the season!
Even though I adore summer, I’m all about being cozy. When autumn arrives, it feels more appropriate to bring out all our cable knit throws and use them throughout the house. But a little secret…I always snuggle up with a throw blanket, regardless of the time of year.
I often struggle with decorating our home for Fall, as I personally would rather stay away from the traditional red, yellow, and orange color scheme. This year, I made a point to search for neutral fall decor that would bring a fresh look without changing the overall ambiance of the space.
I’m really excited to have the opportunity to show you some new neutral decor options. Are you ready to get started?

13 Unique Neutral Fall Decor Ideas
I absolutely love decorating my home with neutral colors! It just creates such a cozy and comfortable atmosphere, especially during the autumn season. I found some really great vintage-looking items at a reasonable price, and I couldn’t be happier with how they all came together. It’s amazing how a few subtle fall decor items can really transform the ambiance of a room.
1. Black stoneware glazed bowl
This stoneware bowl has a boho-inspired design but can complement any home decor style. Incorporating a touch of black in both your room and decor can enhance the overall dimension of the space.
This item would look great on any flat surface, whether it is placed on top of a stack of books or arranged with dried botanicals. I think it is a great start to our neutral fall decor theme.
2. Vintage neutral fall wall decor
These stunning gallery wall prints, which are unframed, can provide any room with a focal point. Their dark neutral tones provide a fall-like feel, but they can be utilized all year round. These prints are versatile and complement any design style, whether they’re displayed together or separately as individual or dual combinations.
The best part is they are affordable, and you can use your own frames. They offer two options – 3x[11×14″] and 2x[8×10″] or 3x[8×10″] and 2x[5×7″].
3. Hand-forged metal candelabra
When I see a candelabra, it reminds me of the autumn season. This particular one is unique because of its antique brass finish that has imperfections resulting from being hand-forged. It would make a stunning addition to a fireplace, dining table, or entryway table.
The finish gives a softer appearance and enhances the overall look, whether or not candles are used. I have included many candle options in my collection of neutral fall decor finds.
4. Set of cotton linen pillow covers
The quality of these cotton linen pillow covers is unbeatable for their price. I bought them last year, and this color goes well with any neutral fall decor theme. With a size of 20″x20″, they are the perfect neutral fall pillows for decorating beds, couches, benches, or side chairs.
For my inserts, I usually size up. In this case, I would use a 22″X22″. The inserts can be used over and over again as you change up your decor. The inserts I use are of high quality and can be chopped up to achieve the desired look.
5. Neutral fall cotton knit dishcloth set
My grandmother, mother, and other family members have knitted similar dishcloths in the past. This cotton knit dishcloth set is ideal for washing dishes, and they are quite durable. I particularly love the neutral hues in this particular set and the loop for hanging it up.
This product’s packaging makes it an excellent present for occasions like a housewarming, birthday, or Christmas. Since everyone has to do dishes, it serves as a practical and visually appealing addition to any home decor.
6. Decorative Velvet pumpkins
While not very practical, they are undeniably adorable! These velvet decor pumpkins are available in four different colors, making them a unique find in neutral fall decor. With three sizes available, you can choose to display one, multiple, or mix and match the colors to your liking.
These can add a whimsical touch to a fall dining room tablescape or arrange them in a bowl for a fun display.
7. Orange and whitewashed terracotta urn
This urn has a distressed appearance that gives it an investment-worthy look. The whitewash finish creates an aged, worn-out look while softening the bright orange terracotta color. I always love adding a few stunning vintage pieces, so I also recommend checking out local antique shops, you never know when you will strike gold!
Elevate your decor with this beautiful urn that can be placed on any flat surface or when shelf styling. You can also combine it with artificial seasonal stems to create an impressive display.
8. Pumpkin still life painting
This exquisite vintage painting is available as a printable download from Indie Pixels. The stunning display of pumpkins on a distressed table perfectly captures the essence of autumn. In my opinion, the perfect use of fall neutral colors.
This is a digital product, so no physical item will be shipped. However, you will receive every available size of the print at an affordable price, and you can use your own frame to display it. This print would be a beautiful addition to any dining room or as part of a pretty vignette leaning against your kitchen backsplash.
9. Autumn pumpkin spice wax melts
These Autumn-themed wax melts are absolutely adorable! The packaging is so cute that it makes for a great gift option. If you love cinnamon, you will want to try this Autumn Pumpkin Spice scent.
If you’re searching for a wax burner for your home, I recommend this white ceramic candle wax warmer for its simplicity and compact size.
10. Ceramic match holder with striker
If you have candles in your home, it’s a good idea to have matches nearby in this lovely ceramic match holder. Each piece is hand-crafted, making it a one-of-a-kind and stunning addition to a fireplace mantel, entryway table, or kitchen counter.
Note that this product does not include white wooden matches. However, you can easily purchase them separately.
11. Hand-carved marble dish
I added this hand-carved marble dish to my collection of Affordable Bathroom Counter Accessories, but it’s versatile enough to be used in many other places. It comes in white, grey, and beige, which are all great neutral fall home decor colors.
One of the things that makes it unique is its versatility. You can use it to display a candle and snuffer on an entry table, as a spoon rest in the kitchen, or as a soap dish in the bathroom.
12. Antique Brass Tapered Candle Holders
I bought these beautiful tapered candle holders from Crate & Barrel, and I recently discovered that they are also available on Amazon. They have been in my decor collection for years, and they are perfect for any occasion. I often use them as part of my neutral fall mantel decor or incorporate them into my dining table arrangements. You can even see them featured in several of my posts.
These candle holders have a charming vintage feel with a slightly hammered appearance. They are quite weighty, which adds to their stability when holding candles. Overall, they are absolutely perfect!
13. Pumpkin Spice Candle
I absolutely love buying candles from Antique Candle Co. I’ve bought directly from them in the past, but I recently discovered that they now have a small business on Amazon. Their fall candles are especially amazing – Momma’s Kitchen is my all-time favorite, but I’m excited to try out the Pumpkin Spice scent this time around.
I suggest browsing through the Antique Candle Co. website to familiarize yourself with their products. They offer shipping services to both the United States and Canada.
