There are so many joyful aspects of fall on the East Coast — the changing leaves, the cute fashion moments, pumpkin spice goodies, and, of course, the fall decor. It might feel like an apartment doesn’t lend enough space to get into the spirit of the season, but that is not the case. Even in a smaller apartment space, there are endless ways to decorate for the fall season. Whether getting into the Halloween spirit or making a space feel cozy as the weather turns cold, Hoboken is home to some great local shops that will help turn any apartment into an autumnal paradise. Read on to learn the best places to shop for fall decor in Hoboken, and some design inspo for small spaces.
Get Cozy with It

One of the easiest — and coziest — ways to get an apartment into the fall spirit is with some colorful throw blankets and pillows. Think burnt oranges, deep golds, warm whites, and olive greens. Not only can throw blankets bring a pop of color to the space, but they are perfect to snuggle with while binge-watching Halloween movies. Throw pillows can also be fun and festive with Halloween themes that are fun for both kids and adults.

Add some candles into the mix to really get that perfect fall vibe. There are endless options that can fill up a room with the best scents of the season, such as pumpkin spice, apple pie, or even a campfire — without taking up much space.
For cozy blankets and pillows, we recommend checking out Luna Rosa at 1218 Washington Street B. For candles, visit Wicked Scents at 163 2nd Street.
Elevate Your Space

A tall floor vase with autumnal plants is an easy way to bring the fall beauty of the outdoors inside. Off whites and natural tones fit the season best, and match almost any existing interior design.
Centerpieces on a dining or coffee table are another great way to bring in autumnal themes without taking up much space. Small plaster pumpkins can come in any color to match your home, and they will last for years to come. Paired together with small candles or pieces of fake wheat or other natural plant, will bring the table together and impress any guest who walks in the door. Elegant, timeless pieces can be found at Luna Rosa Home on Washington Street.
