These Modern Farmhouse Fall Home Decor Ideas are so easy to recreate! I have free printables, DIY decor ideas, and more!
I BAAAARELY snuck this post in before Winter. I was debating just waiting until next year, but I think these Modern Fall Home Decor Ideas are just too pretty. They HAD to be shared! I think these would be perfect for a Friendsgiving party – your girlfriends will love the pink and olive tones!
I usually have an issue with the traditional orange and red fall colors, as you can tell with my purple and pink Fall Wreath from last year. I think this proves it’s okay to break the rules with holiday color palettes. There are a few things you can do to keep your fall decor “on point” with unique color palettes. And yes…I’m going to tell you how.

DIY Modern Farmhouse Fall Home Decor Ideas
I think the best way to get the look you want is to DIY. I have had so many moments where I have a specific idea in mind, I go to the store, and they don’t have what I want. For example, for my daughter’s tween room, I wanted a purple room that wasn’t too juvenile looking. GUYS. It was so hard to find purple things that weren’t princessy or cutesy. So I opted for purchasing black decor and DIYed most of the purple.
Same thing for this modern fall decor. I had to buy elements that would go with my vision, but to create the modern effect, I designed my own geometric fall printables and made modern signs, banners, and coasters with my EasyPress 2.
And I LOVE flowers, but I didn’t want to make this appear too “woodsy”, so I used a gold hoop wreath instead of a wood one. If I had time, I would have made a fall version of my daughter’s macrame hoop wreath. But if you wanted to create one just like this, just glue some flowers and mini pumpkins to a gold hoop. Ridiculously easy, modern and gorgeous.

Store bought Modern Farmhouse Fall Home Decor Ideas – ie BUY PUMPKINS
There were a couple fall items I found that were unique colors, like the pink pumpkin votive holders, the gold leaf napkin rings, and the leaf coasters from Pier One. I can usually count on Pier One for pretty table decor (like those pink ruffle napkins…I DIE). But you don’t necessarily have to buy seasonal decor to make it look seasonal.
I also found some olive pumpkins at Fry’s (ON SALE! WOOT!), and the pumpkin and pink florals at Michael’s. So, if you can’t find season votive holders, you can always buy pumpkin or leaf elements to tie into the theme. I even think something like these Agate Napkin rings or my paper flower napkin rings would go beautifully with this fall decor.
Another fun DIY is lettering on the pumpkins you purchased! I usually use my chalkboard pens (and I was able to remove the paint after, in case I wanted to use them later).
Add different Textures and Geometric Patterns
The one thing that can turn decor from cutesy to modern is geometric patterns. Something simple like my striped napkins from Target (thanks, Joanna Gaines!) to my geometric printables can make a HUGE difference.
And it doesn’t have to be as noticeable as a pattern – that triangle pennant looks a lot more modern than a traditional banner (you know, with the two points at the end).
Adding wood elements can create a Modern Farmhouse effect, which I love. I want it to look modern, not stuffy. That galvanized flower centerpiece also gives a homey look – and mixing it with gold is perfectly fine. Don’t let anyone tell you that you can’t mix metal finishes.

Just for fun, the above picture is a behind the scenes peek. You’ll usually find me with a camera or at my computer…but if we’re honest, my hair is usually in a messy bun.
