In the dining room
If there's a lot of wood and hard surfaces, soften things up by slip covering the end chairs or using upholstered end banquettes.
On the table, mix things up with coloured crystal, chargers and decorative plates. Cut coloured crystal and Moroccan tea glasses – they have a richness that just feels like fall.
Put bowls of coconuts on the table. The texture is perfect for this time of year, especially with a layer of baby pinecones or moss.
In the bedroom
Layer up the bed with a quilted blanket in satin or velvet.
Upholster the headboard.
Replace white lampshades with black or something lined with gold or silver.
In the bathroom
Hang floating shelves to store books and candles and soaps.
Get a long wooden tray for the counter and place vases filled with sea corals on it.
Add little lamps to the vanity.
If you have the room, slip cover a chair and ottoman in a warm-coloured terry cloth and a wool runner.

Most of these suggestions seem to be for a specific space the author had in mind. For example, I'm pretty sure that gold or silver on lamps in the bedroom won't match many peoples bedroom decor.
How about just some autumn leaf, wreathe, candle sticks & fall arrangements on the dinner table?
Hi Kasia, I agree that gold or silver lamps may not work in everyone's bedroom, but the ideas are meant to inspire and can't possibly reflect everyone's home. Hopefully you can use some of the others!
