4 Easy Ways To Make Your Home Smell Like Fall

Many homeowners decorate their spaces for the fall. Items that add a touch of warmth are the most common choices. Some put pumpkins and gourds outdoors. Others hang artificial leaves, string lights, and fall-themed artwork.

These decorations can bring coziness into your home. But there is another way to incorporate fall into your home.

Make your home smell like autumn. Here are some easy ideas.

Make a Fall Potpourri

A potpourri mixes dried flowers and other natural ingredients. Some also use dried fruits. These ingredients create a fragrant decoration.

For the fall, we recommend a blend of these ingredients:

• Marigolds

• Roses

• Cinnamon sticks

• Cloves

• Nutmeg

• Allspice

• Ginger

• Star anise

• Apple slices

• Cranberries

• Orange peel

• Pinecones

• Evergreen branches

You can replace some ingredients with essential oils.

Brew Apple Cider

If you're looking for a sweet and spicy apple scent, we suggest brewing some jugs of apple cider. You can heat up apple cider from the store. You can also add cinnamon and orange slices.

You can also make apple cider. You'll need five ingredients.

• Apples

• Oranges

• Cloves

• Cinnamon

• Sugar

Simmer everything in a pot and enjoy the fragrance.

Craft a Fall-Themed Garland

Are you missing a decoration for your door? Consider making a garland! You can easily buy a garland from the store and decorate it with fall-related pieces. Like potpourri, you can use dehydrated fruits and spices.

For the scent, gently press out orange juice with paper towels and hand them on your garland.

Make a Simmer Pot

A simmer pot is a low-maintenance method for making your home smell like the fall. This is the best option if you often get headaches from artificial fragrances or aromas.

To start, pour some water into a pot. We recommend filling it halfway. Then add a variety of fall scents. Common fall simmer pot ingredients include:

• Apple

• Cinnamon

• Cloves

• Nutmeg

• Ginger

• Rosemary

• Thyme

• Cranberries

• Vanilla Extract

• Maple Syrup

• Almond Extract

Bring the pot to a boil. Reduce the heat to let it simmer. You may need to add more water the longer it simmers.
