    Literally Just 48 Things You Need If You Plan On Making Autumn Your Entire Personality

    Gather your candles, break out your leaf garland, and clutch your PSL tight β€” because autumn is upon us, my friends. πŸ‚

    1. Perfectly placed fall leaf window clingsΒ reminding you the trees will be donning their seasonal orange and yellow hues soon and it will be LOVELY. These easy-to-apply clings will bring bright pops of colors to your windows, especially on a sunny day.Β 

    Don't worry about them leaving glue behind β€” they stick by themselves using static and come off just as easily. I put these on my own windows last year and it was super simple! They look beautiful, too.

    Tip: It's a good idea to wipe down your windows before you put these on!Β 

    Promising review: "Really enjoyed the colors of fall with this set β€” you definitely get your money's worth, as there are so many to choose from. You can put fall up on every window in the house! They went on great, but more importantly, they came off super easy unlike the other brand I bought for Christmas. This brand's stickers were heavier plastic, easy to apply, and came off just as easy. Just keep the paper they came on, peel them off your window(s), and put them back on the sheet (basically in the same spot, as you can see the shape of each leaf). The colors and details were vivid and life-like. Very lovely." β€”Jo Anne Maarten

    Get them from Amazon for $6.99.Β 

    2. SomeΒ maple leaf string lightsΒ that'll let you enjoy the beauty of fall foliage even if you live in a perpetually green area and don't get to witness the changing colors yourself.Β 

    the leaf garland strung in front of a sink
    the lights around a reviewer's candle

    This garland runs on three AA batteries, so pick those up if you need 'em!

    Promising review: "One of my favorite things about this product is that it's battery operated, making it easier to put anywhere you'd like! I was afraid that the leaves would look too fake, but I'm impressed. I can't wait to leave them out all season! The only thing I don't like about them is the light flickering option. It's a little distracting, but I want to keep them completely on anyway. If you're on the fence about getting these, I hope you decide on yes! Happy fall, y'all!" β€”Lindsey Tedford

    Get them from Amazon for $6.99.

    3. And a little light-up maple treeΒ sure to make a beautiful centerpiece.Β Scatter some fake fall leaves around the base for an even cuter look, and opt for the larger size if you have an empty corner needing some seasonal flair!

    This battery-powered tree uses three AA batteries, and you can set them on a timer for six hours on before they shut off automatically. This is to conserve battery life β€” if you want to light your tree for longer, you'll have to pop the batteries in and out to reset that timer.

    Promising review: "This tree is definitely a great addition to my fall collection. Upon opening, the box that the tree came in was bent, but that’s not enough reason to say less about this fall tree. Each branch is easily movable to your liking, and just remember that when you put your three AA batteries in, your timer is then set for the next six hours to light up your fall tree. I really wish that the time was a little longer, or that you had the option to leave them on 24 hours. I have already popped one battery in and out a few times, just to change the six-hour time. I will save the box for safekeeping, and next year, I’ll have fun doing this all over again! Enjoy!!" β€”Vickey

    Get it from Amazon for $19.99+Β (available in two sizes).

    4. A softΒ knitted sweaterΒ that'll look cute with everything from jeans and skirts to shorts and tights β€” perfect for exploring corn mazes and haunted houses this autumn. It's also extreeemely similar to a ModCloth sweater that cost twice as much (before it sold out).Β

    reviewer wearing the sweater tucked into a denim skirt with tights

    Promising review: "First of all, I bought this because a seasonal-only sweater for $70 on ModCloth is just too expensive. Secondly, this sweater is very stretchy and very soft. It is not itchy or irritating to the skin and the design is really cute! I am 5’5” and the length is perfect! It was also pretty loose on me on the torso part, so I could probably wear a blouse under it! If you are looking for a festive sweater that is good for laying and cool weather, this is the one for you!" β€”Soleil

    Get it from Amazon for $30.99Β (available in "one size" that fits somewhere between a medium and large. According to reviewers, it stretches well, but if you're over XL, it may be too tight).

    5. And aΒ skeleton hands sweatshirt with a cheeky design you'll be tempted to sport well past Halloween.Β

    Isla Haven & Co/Etsy

    Isla Haven & Co.Β is a Michigan-based small business that sells fun seasonal clothing, including tees and crewneck sweatshirts!

    Promising reviews: "I love this sweater! I’ve been adding a lot of Halloween sweaters to my favorites, but never bought any. This one is perfect and fits my personality to a T." β€”autumn gilbreath

    "The quality of this sweatshirt is wonderful! It got here so quickly and was exactly what I ordered. Perfect for spooky season!" β€”Amanda

    Get it fromΒ Isla Haven & Co.Β on Etsy for $50Β (available in sizes S–5XL and in five colors).Β 

    6. A botanical desk matΒ to bring your love for fall into your computer setup, because if you have to sit there 8+ hours a day, you might as well make it aesthetically pleasing.Β 

    a fall-themed desk mat with green yellow and orange fall foliage on it
    Jenae Sitzes / BuzzFeed

    I picked up this desk mat this year to help tie my desk setup in with the rest of my fall decor (it sits in the middle of my living room since I don't have a separate office), and I'm super pleased with how it looks and the overall quality of it! I ordered the largest size, so you can see how that looks above, but you could also go for a smaller size and just use it as a mouse pad. Also, it has an anti-slip backing on it so it stays put on your desk.

    Get it from Annarsdesign on Etsy for $20.65+ (available in three sizes).Β 

    7. A WoodWick "Fireside" candleΒ β€” its enchanting scent and crackling sound will transport you to a cozy campfire on a brisk autumn night, surrounded by friends making s'mores and telling ghost stories.Β Β 

    the woodwick fireside candles in large and medium sizes
    Amazon

    I ordered this WoodWick candle in the larger size recently, and already know I'll be coming back for more. The scent is so incredible and genuinely fills the whole room, and it has that cozy crackling sound thanks to the wooden wick that I adore. I feel like it'll last me a while too, so it's totally worth the price.Β 

    Promising review: "I can confidently say that the WoodWick 'Fireside' candle is hands-down my favorite candle of all time! Its enchanting scent instantly transports me to the warmth and coziness of a crackling campfire. The moment I lit this candle, I was captivated by its inviting aroma. The fragrance fills the room with a perfect balance of smoky notes and subtle hints of wood. It truly evokes the nostalgic feeling of sitting by a cozy campfire, roasting marshmallows, and sharing stories with loved ones. The unique feature of this candle is the crackling wooden wick, which adds an extra layer of authenticity to the experience. The gentle crackling sound is reminiscent of the flickering flames, creating an ambiance that is truly mesmerizing and comforting." β€”Gabby Tess

    Get it from Amazon for $20.99+ (available in a medium or large size).

    8. Fleece pumpkin throw pillowsΒ to get a head start on your fall decorating β€” because I know we're all obsessed with the Pottery Barn version, but $50 per pumpkin sadly isn't in the budget rn.Β Β 

    the pumpkin throw pillows in five colors
    Amazon

    Promising review: "I am quite pleased with this pumpkin pillow. It arrived totally mashed in a plastic bag that had the air sucked out, but when I cut it open, the pumpkin just grew into its shape. I did also fluff it in my clothes dryer on low for a few minutes based on another review. It is definitely comparable to one available atΒ Pottery Barn at twice the price. A lovely head start to my autumn decorating!" β€”H. K. Gallahan

    Get them from Amazon for $17.99+ (available in six colors).Β 

    9. A Ouija board welcome mat β€” don't worry, it's not the dead contacting you, just your mother-in-law dropping in for an unexpected visit. πŸ™ƒ

    the ouija board door mat
    Amazon

    Promising review: "This mat was perfect this Halloween.Β It adds the perfect amount of subtle eeriness and it held up really well under our covered doorway. I'm sure this will last for at least another three years. The ink is clear and the words are legible (which was a concern I had prior to it arriving). But, despite the inexpensive price tag, it's actually a well-made mat that's true to the provided picture." β€”Morgan Benedict

    Get it from Amazon for $24.99.

    10. And aΒ gorgeous wreath to give your door a fresh look for fall, with vibrant red berries and yellow leaves that are just perfect for the season.

    Plus, it comes with a white storage box so you can easily put it away and pull it back out next year without any damage.

    Promising review: "Rich, vibrant fall colors β€” a wreath that is beautiful and highly visible close up or at a distance. I considered a number of wreaths on Amazon and other sites before selecting this one. As several other reviewers have noted, this wreath is lovelier than I had imagined, the prettiest fall wreath I’ve ever seen. It was packed in a nice box for storage, and requires shaping before hanging. I’ve hung it under a covered porch and plan to store it in a climate-controlled area to preserve its longevity. So pleased to have found this wonderful wreath and to learn about the Wreath Depot, indeed a quality company!" β€”DW

    Get it from Amazon for $79.99.

    11. American Eagle's new Halloween graphic tees you can immediately start wearing since they're short-sleeved and lightweight. They have the cutest designs that'll ignite your excitement for spooky season without making you sweat (since, sadly, early fall days can still get pretty warm).

    the white graphic tee with a skeleton witch on a broom

    American Eagle, Jenae Sitzes / BuzzFeed

    I saw on TikTok that these were available and immediately bought the two pictured above. They're unbelievably soft and feel so high quality β€” the gray one's my favorite, but I love the white one too! I've been wearing them since the end of July (LOL) and will absolutely keep wearing them all fall with a sweater or jacket thrown on top! Note that they have an oversized fit, so if you're between sizes, I'd definitely say size down.

    Get the oversized graphic tees from American Eagle for $26.95 (originally $29.95; available in women's sizes XXS–XXL and four designs). And check out their other Halloween tee designs!

    12. A pair of Chelsea ankle bootsΒ because it's time to give your well-worn summer sandals (that are practically falling apart) a break. With a chunky block heel, lug sole, and stretchy elastic goring, these will go with all of your fall 'fits.Β

    Promising reviews: "Fit great, looks cute. Even wore them on a few-mile walk and didn’t get blisters" β€”Laurence Grante III

    Amazon

    Promising review:Β "I ordered these for my co-workers for the 'spooky season' this Halloween. The size is perfect and the quality is amazing. These arrived in perfect condition and they were packaged really well with extra care. I'm always worried about ordering any glassware online and I will say, you do NOT have to worry about that with this set. The items were also just as seen in the pics and a very reasonable price considering how expensive these can be for just ONE on Etsy." β€”Sharon McCabe

    Get a set of two from Amazon for $25.99 (also available in a set of four and other styles).

    16. Fall-colored faux eucalyptus stems to put in a vase or lay across a mantle. You get six pieces, which can be used all together or split up into different vases if you prefer.

    a hand holding up the eucalyptus stems in a white vase

    Promising review: "I’m very happy with this eucalyptus. The colors are so nice β€” very tasteful fall colors. The leaves are made of a stiff fabric, and the stems are wrapped with brown paper. No fake-looking plastic, except where leaves are attached to the stems, and that’s well done and not really noticeable. When I first opened the package, some of the leaves were folded over, but I just dampened them and straightened them out with my fingers. It took about 20 minutes to do all six stems, but they dried quickly and look great now." β€”Sandra D.

    Get 6 stems from Amazon for $9.99+Β (available in three styles, with or without berries).Β 

    17. AΒ soft muslin throw blanketΒ you can use even through the warmer months because of how breathable and moisture-absorbing it is, but it'll also channel cozy fall vibes when draped across your bed, the couch, or a chair. 'Tis the season of curling up under this with hot tea and a good book!

    Promising review: "This blanket is the most amazing thing ever! It is incredibly soft and lightweight. It is warm but not overwhelming. ItΒ looksΒ great as a throw for decoration but so comfortable you have to use." β€”Fairykisses

    Get it from Amazon for $34.10+Β (available in 10 colors and four styles).

    18. A stylishΒ ribbed knit midi skirtΒ stretchy enough to keep you comfortable on the go and warm enough to protect your legs on chilly mornings. A fall fashion staple!

    Promising review: "This skirt looks so good on. The color is perfect for fall and winter. I will be pairing it with sweaters. It looks expensive on." β€”Alicia Adams

    Get it from Amazon forΒ $25.99Β (available in women's sizes XS–XL and in 13 colors).

    19. A new shower curtainΒ with gorgeous autumnal colors to replace the old stained one you've had for ages. It'll give the entire room new life, and though it'll look lovely next to your other fall decor, it's pretty enough to stay out year-round TBH.

    Amazon

    Don't forget to grab a new shower liner if you need to replace one that's starting to look gnarly. It'll make your entire shower area look and feel much fresher β€” because as a guest, it's no fun using a bathroom that looks like it's been *ahem* a bit neglected. This curtain does come with basic hooks, but I highly recommend grabbing two-sided hooks that hold the curtain and the liner separately if you don't already have them β€” they're much nicer and easier to work with.

    Promising review: "The colors are gorgeous and visitors remark about how pretty it is. This is too nice to just be fall decor...it is staying up all year!" β€”Connie

    Get it from Amazon for $16.96.

    20. And a plushΒ machine-washable bath matΒ that'll feel so luxurious after stepping out of a steamy shower β€” I mean, how cute are these fall designs? Also, you could totally put this next to your bed instead.Β

    Get it from Amazon for $26.99Β (available in three styles).

    21. A pumpkin-coloredΒ duvet cover setΒ to cozy up your bedroom and add a pop of color. Reviewers also rave about its soft, textured feel that's similar to linen without the high price tag.

    the pumpkin colored duvet set
    Amazon

    The set comes with a duvet cover and two matching shams β€” if you don't already have a duvet insert, be sure to pick one up! Note: While many describe this set as breathable, some say it's too warm for hot summers, so you may find it better suited to the cooler months of the year.

    Promising reviews: "I ordered this in the pumpkin orange color for the start ofΒ fallΒ and I am obsessed! My room is very neutral in color so this created a pop! The color is fantastic and oh man it is soooo soft!! I always order a size up from my actual duvet cover to ensure it fits and doesn't shrink when washed. This set is just amazing!" β€”Taylor

    "It’s very soft, comfortable,Β superΒ breathable, and keeps you warm. It’s like sleeping with clouds. I was searching for a duvet cover that felt like the fancy hotel ones and this one is perfect." β€”Jason Arroyo

    Get it from Amazon for $37.99+ (available in sizes twin XL–California king and 39 colors).Β Β 

    22. AΒ bag of potpourriΒ that works double time as a soothing fragrance (fresh apples, cinnamon, and citrus β€” yum) and autumnal home decor when you pour it into aΒ bowlΒ orΒ vase. Nothing puts you in the fall mindset like filling your home with delicious seasonal scents.

    BTW, Aromatique is a family-owned business based in my home state of Arkansas! I absolutely love their products; they're always really high quality and smell amazing.Β 

    Promising review: "Smells so good, and the apple pieces were packed very neatly in a separate part of the package so they wouldn’t be squished. The smell is just lovely!!! It’s a strong smell, too β€” not overbearing, yet strong (but strong to where you can actually smell it in the whole room)." β€”Amanda P.

    Get it from Amazon for $29.50.

    23. A pumpkin spice soy candle, because candles are a fall staple, and this one will have your home smelling oh-so-nice.

    An orange candle with a black lid
    The Sisters Stoned / Etsy

    Pumpkin-scented candles aren't exactly a rarity during this time of year, but reviewers can't get enough of this hand-poured scent from Etsy seller The Sisters Stoned, an LGBTQ-owned business created by two best friends obsessed with candles. The PSL Soy Candle has top notes of cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, and orange peel, middle notes of pumpkin, clove, and black tea, and base of vanilla and graham cracker. There's nothing basic about this PSL!

    Promising review: "I was so excited about these candles, and I was not disappointed! I live in the South for school, and I wanted to experience some fall spirit. These candles smell wonderful, both while burning and afterward. The scent was enough to make my entire apartment smell lovely. I purchased both the PSL scent and the Autumn Stroll, and I genuinely love both. The PSL candle smells like what I assume five pumps of pumpkin smells like in a cup. It’s truly amazing. I will be buying from them again!" β€”Lauren Guillot

    Get it from The Sisters Stoned on Etsy for $18+Β (available in two sizes).

    24. Or a pumpkin spice reed diffuser to make any room smell absolutely incredible. It gives off a strong scent without being too overwhelming, according to reviewers.

    Notes of freshly brewed coffee are blended with cinnamon, cloves, nutmeg, and ginger in this autumnal diffuser set that comes with eight reeds. It'll make your home smell incredible for up to three months!

    Lorenzen Candle Co. is a Missouri-based small business!

    Promising review: "This is my favorite diffuser I’ve ever had. The aroma is lovely and not overpowering, even in a small room. We got two and are using them in different sized rooms, both great. They are lasting for such a long time. I really like the look of the bottle as well. All-around great item." β€”Amazon customer

    Get it from Lorenzen Candle Co. on Amazon Handmade for $20.99.

    25. A hand-shaped ghost vaseΒ for some ~spooky-chic~ decor that's understated but undeniably adorable. It won't scare any kiddos, but it *will* delight any guests and be a compliment magnet all season long.

    If you have a way of making espresso at home (like a stovetop espresso maker), you could even make yourself a dirty chai!

    BuzzFeed Shopping editor Chelsea Stuart says, "Not gonna lie, I went on a serious reconnaissance mission at my local joint just to figure out what kind of chai they were using and lo and behold it was this bad boy! All you have to do is add water or milk (and ice if you want it cold) and BAM, you've got a chai that could go for $5+."

    Get it from Amazon for $14.77+ (available in two sizes).

    28. And aΒ set of five coffee syrups to further my point that autumn coffee flavors are superior. This set comes with 1.7-ounce bottles of caramel, amaretto, hazelnut, Irish cream, and vanilla flavorings so you can create your own coffeehouse-worthy drinks without stepping foot in a Starbucks.

Awesome price and would be a cute gift idea β€” highly recommend!" β€”Haley Fox Blog

    Amazon

    I own these in *three* shades, including the orange ones above, and can vouch that they're *so* soft and not just for looks (but they look cute too!). I was so tired of getting decorative throw pillow covers that were cute but scratchy and not at all pleasant to lay your head on, and these fit the bill perfectly. They're a permanent fixture on my couch now and I've taken many a nap on them, and they'd be great on a bed too.

    Promising review: "I bought the orange rectangular ones to go with some fall printed pillow covers. They were really just for decoration, but they are super soft and cozy! They fit very snug on the pillows I had. I really like them; in fact, I bought a square set in green to go with my Christmas decor! Would definitely recommend." β€”gb

    Get a set of two 18x18 covers from Amazon for $13.99+ (available in 31 colors and nine sizes).

    If you're looking for affordable pillow inserts to match the covers, you can buy a set of two hypoallergenic pillow inserts on Amazon for $7.99+. For the fluffiest pillow, opt for an insert that's 2 inches bigger than your cover (so if you get an 18x18-inch cover, you'll want a 20x20-inch insert for optimal fluffiness).

    33. A unique set of pumpkins fashioned from booksΒ that'll get you excited to tackle your reading list this fall. They would make a beautiful table centerpiece or bookshelf decor!

    Promising review (for Geometry towels in general): "Imagine a towel that actually does its job...absorbs, cleans, dries, and it looks cute!? I only own Geometry towels now, others just aren't worth having. All the other towels I have owned come out of the wash mangled and wrinkly. These towels come out of the dryer looking like new! Consider me a #1 fan!" β€”Kelsi Fullmer

    36. Plus, aΒ peeler, corer, and slicer deviceΒ that'll come in clutch in the kitchen! Reviewers say it's a *must-have* for baking with and canning apples, allowing you to make quick work of that huge bag you picked at the local orchard in a fraction of the time. It's great for applesauce, apple pies, apple butter, apple preserves, and more. (Psst β€” it works for potatoes, too!)

    A reviewer uses the device to peel off an apples skin in a thin, long spiral strip

    It securely suctions to the countertop so all you do is turn the crank while the machine does the rest. When your apple is naked, it slides right off the core.

    Promising reviews: "After years of hard work coring, peeling, and prepping to make homemade applesauce, I finally decided enough is enough. This REALLY works! And it functions just as described and is very high quality. I make a year's supply of applesauce in the fall and this has been a lifesaver this year. Wish I had purchased it years ago. Do not hesitate to buy this item for any of your apple and potato prepping needs, you'll not regret it. It stays anchored to the counter and does everything it is supposed to do." β€”Coyote

    "I can apples every fall, and absolutely cannot imagine performing this task without this tool β€” it is a definite must-have." β€”Sonya

    Promising reviews: "I love this vest! It gives me a total vintage look. The sweater itself is already oversized, but I wanted a looser fit, so I went a size bigger, and I am happy with how it fits. Shipping did take longer, but it was very clear at the time of purchase the expected arrival date, so that wasn’t a surprise. I'm really thinking of getting more colors!" β€”Levi

    "This product runs a little big so be sure to consider the looser fit. That being said, the material is amazing and it is very warm andΒ cozy. It looks really professional and clean when paired with a white button-down. I love this item." β€”umbo

    Prime members: You canΒ try before you buy!

    Promising review: "No joke, these are pretty much exactly the same as my Skims lounge set for half the price. The pants graze the tops of my feet even when I wear them high-waisted at my belly button, so I think they’re plenty long. The robe is like wearing a blanket, but still looks put together. Anyway, I’m back here to buy a second color because I loved them so much!" β€”Jenna

    Amazon

    Whether you're looking for a larger rug for your living room or a small rug for the kitchen, this fall-inspired rug available in multiple sizes will bring warmth and color to any room. Reviewers note that it's easy to clean β€” a big plus for pet owners β€” but that the rug comes tightly rolled, so you'll need to weigh it down for a few days so it can settle. One customer even recommended using a steam iron over a towel on the rug to quickly get any creases out.

    Promising review:Β "Purchased this rug for Thanksgiving to go with my fall colors. The rug took a day to lie down on one edge, but the colors were perfect. It has taken spills with no problem. It is so easy to clean. It is thin, so I did put a pad under it and now it is fine. It vacuums up great and goes with so many colors. I love it!" β€”Debra123

    Get it from Amazon for $20.23+ (available in multiple sizes, shapes, and colors).

If all your products are this great I WILL buy from you again! Thank you so much for such a lovely experience!" β€”Betsey Linne-Pack

    Promising review: "I didn't really read the details on the product. However, I was pleased to find out they weren't as tiny as I thought they were going to be. Each print has a pair with a different shape, so it's useful for couples to identify theirs." β€”Heydy Saavedra-Pernesiglio
