when can you start decorating for fall

The best time to start decorating for fall is flexible and largely depends on personal preference. Many people begin decorating indoors for fall in late August or early September, transitioning from summer textiles to warmer tones and cozy fabrics. Outdoor fall decor often starts in mid to late September. The official first day of fall is around September 22, which is also a common and appropriate time to begin fall decorating. This allows for enjoying the cozy, seasonal atmosphere through the fall months, including Halloween and Thanksgiving decorations as the season progresses. Ultimately, it's about when one wants to bring the fall ambiance into their home, whether that's early to enjoy the season longer or closer to the traditional fall calendar.
