When you look up “fall decor” on Pinterest, a lot of over-the-top, cheesy stuff comes up (in my opinion). So today I wanted to share some inspiration that would appeal to those of you who err on the side of simple and sophisticated. Read on for ten gorgeous ideas! Â Â

2. The simple addition of a baskets of gourds give this entryway a subtle autumnal feel. [Photo: Better Homes and Gardens]
3. Repetition is another great way to go from rustic to contemporary… try putting a row of pumpkins (or apples or pinecones) on your mantle. [Photo: Vivre Blog]
4. Sticking to a monochromatic or muted color scheme like the one above is a great trick. [Photo: Decorating Ideas Made Easy]

8. You know all those glass vases you probably have hiding in the back of your cabinet? Grab a couple and fill them with small pumpkins and gourds. So easy! [Photo: allwomenstalk.com]
9. Here’s another super simple idea… cut a couple of branches and put them in a glass jar. Pretty, understated and totally fall, right? [Photo: Ana GR via Raspberry Tart]
10. Birch bark and leather has a nice fall feel (which could work in the winter too). [Photo: Just A Smidgen]
Birch bark us super-flammable and shouldn’t be on candles! It’s great for starting camp fires though.Â
Might be best to use a flameless candle then… thanks Gabe!
