Beautiful wall decorations definitely help when it comes to decorating, but a fall-inspired room is truly incomplete without pumpkins. Add (these) velvet, beaded, or even classic orange pumpkins to your desk or nightstand to keep the tradition alive in a contemporary way.

2. Update your Terrarium!
Terrariums are incredibly cute, and are all the rage in dorm room decor. Even though your green and mossy inspired terrarium looked perfect for the summer, try updating its look this month with pumpkins, pine cones, and firefly lights. Place the final product on a window sill or in spot in your dorm that will catch the sunlight perfectly!

3. Give your bed a little upgrade.
Since fall is seasonal, it’s important to incorporate enough to make a statement without making too many detrimental changes. Instead of buying a new bedspread to decorate your dorm for fall, simply incorporate cute fall pillows and throw blankets on your bed. This will update your room without committing to anything too serious. As far as throw blankets go, display extremely cozy blankets in a wicker basket to grab and go whenever needed. You can also lay them out at the foot of your bed so they are nearby to snuggle up with on colder nights. Pillows and blankets can also be compacted and stored, so you can always bring them out again next year!
