1. A 3D bat wall you can put up in less than 20 minutes that'll look like you spent hours curating.
The bat kit comes with 120 different bats in four sizes.
When I moved into my first apartment last fall, I wanted to be able to "decorate for fall" without feeling like it was overkill. I found this kit on Amazon and immediately ordered it. I got so many compliments on it the first go around that I re-ordered it this year and put it back up! I ended up purchasing these other adhesive dots (instead of using the ones it comes with) since last year, I used the ones it came with and they left some small markings on the wall. These ones I ordered are MUCH better. I'm so happy with this kit.
Get the kit on Amazon for $7.99.
2. A set of three ceramic pumpkins for scattering around the house and adding some festive feels. Some reviewers even bought these to paint!

Get them from Amazon for $36.72.
3. A ghost art print to frame and display that'll bring you nothing but pure, spooky joy. You'll swoon in ghoulish delight over how stinkin' cute it is. It coulddddd also be a slight nod to Mr. Harry Styles' iconic song "Two Ghosts," I'm just sayin'...

Promising review: "I love this little print so much. When I saw it, it just made me think of my husband and I so I picked it up to hang in our room. The packaging was precise but it was a little big for the 8x10" frame so I trimmed it down. It's just so cute though!! I can't get over it." —JiQiRenLee
Get it from Mar De Luna Arts Co. on Etsy for $15.
4. Some acorn fairy lights if you just can't wait for fall to enjoy some holiday lighting options. These are anything but (a)corny.

14. Or a WoodWick candle that not only smells great but will surround you with a comforting fireplace crackling noise that's so soothing you'll absolutely melt.
From BuzzFeed writer Elizabeth Lilly:
"I've burned a variety of these mainstream jars over the years, but come back to them every so often because they're indeed that good. I've *also* tried several other brands with wood wicks that seem to either barely work or burn way too fast. But no one does it like WoodWick, which is also very good because of that name (lol). That lil' wick makes such a comforting crackling noise — à la an actual burning fire — without making my hair smell like smoke or tapping into my Girl Scout skills for building a fire. Clearly a lazy win-win."

18. A pack of fall leaf decals you and the kiddos will enjoy sticking all over your home windows. These are perf if you live in a climate where the leaves outside don't exactly change colors in the fall but you still want to feel included.
Set comes with 350 decals.
Promising review: "These fall-themed clings have given a bright pop of color to our new apartment without breaking the bank. It may be because our windows are north facing, and therefore get little light, but the clings don't seem as bright when looking from the outside in. You can still see them and see their color however. I put up the clings during our 2-year-old's nap and she noticed them immediately when she woke up and was excited to see all the bright-colored leaves. So far the clings have been easy to remove and reapply. They are reusable so when you take them down simply put them in a plastic bag and reapply next year. You might need to use some window cleaner for the second and third applications. Overall it's a great product that will only bring smiles." —B. DeKo
Get it from Amazon for $6.99.
19. A super soft throw blanket that feels comparable to a Barefoot Dreams blanket. This burnt orange color will be perfect for laying on your armchair or couch amidst your fall throw pillows.
I own the green version of this blanket and just ordered the burnt orange one to switch out for fall on my couch. I absolutely love this blanket. It's so soft and honestly even nicer than some of my pricer blankets. I love the simple checkered pattern and the color is just stunning for those cozy autumn vibes.
Promising review: "Wow wow, because of all the reviews I read it helped me decide to buy this blanket. Let me tell you, I can’t let go of my blanket! I love it so much and am purchasing another color. The feel is so soft." —Nini59

Promising review: "I instantly fell in love with this blanket. I was hesitant to purchase at first with the price but I'm so glad I did. It's super soft, has just enough weight to it that it makes it soothing, and is surprisingly cool to sleep with. It doesn't get really hot like some of my other blankets do. The huge size is also a bonus, as I love hogging blankets all to myself." —Lindsey B

Promising review: "This mat is absolutely awesome! There are clear crisp lines across the whole mat that really let the words and design pop!

Thanks, Claire, for an awesome spooky season doormat!" —Connor
