With Halloween behind us and the holidays just around the corner, November is a fabulous month to switch up your home decor!
The chill of November may be keeping us cooped up inside, but with the myriad of décor trends to experiment with this month, it’s no wonder we’re enjoying our time indoors.
Between spicy prints, rustic details and wooden accents, we’ve got plenty of home décor ideas to keep you busy!
November Decor Trend#1: Moroccan Spice
The best way to beat the dreary November blues is to infuse a little spice into your surroundings by embracing cultural accents.
The Akar 2-Piece set is a great way to kick off your Moroccan theme.
When we think of Morocco we envision hot deserts, exotic fabrics, shiny metals and rich, vibrant colors. All of these elements play a prominent role in home decor this month, acting as the perfect pick-me-up for those stuck in a pre-winter funk.
Moroccan features add fresh pizazz, breaking up boring, bland interiors that are well past their expiry date.
These exotic prints, hot metals and industrial accents blend seamlessly with the deep plum, chocolate and burgundy tones of last month’s décor, making the transition into this spicy theme an easy crossover.
Try this trend in your living room by swapping your current accent table with a Moroccan-esque style like the Akar 2-Piece Accent Table in Dark Mango Wood. It’s a simple yet impactful way to embrace the spicy theme without much extra work.
Compliment your new Moroccan accent table with a vibrant Mambo Shag Rug to drive the trend home.

November Decor Trend#2: Industrial Touches
Industrial furniture has risen in popularity over the last five years. Unfortunately, the stigma attached to it suggested it was meant for manly décor.
While industrial furniture is often perfect for the man cave, it’s also ideal for creating a statement in the kitchen, the living room and even the most feminine bedrooms.
Things have changed and we’re excited to erase the stigma of manliness by representing a variety of options and styles with our newest industrial collection this season.
One of our favorite new pieces, the Elapse Coffee Table in Antique Silver, embodies the industrial trend yet compliments a gender-neutral taste; masculine enough to appease that special man in your life, but delicate enough to compliment your elegant taste.
The Elapse Accent Table: Gender-neutral with masculine yet delicate features.
The hand-forged wrought-iron construction is sturdy while the open concept base provides an airiness to balance the heavy metal look; a true mesh of two décor styles into one statement piece you’ll be proud to display.
From accent tables to ottomans, industrial touches are a must-have décor option you can’t overlook this season.
November Decor Trend#3: Light Colored Woods
Rich, deep toned woods have been popular years, and although we still adore them, the emergence of fresh looking, honey toned woods are here to lighten up your home (and your mood!) in unexpected accent pieces this month.
The great thing about lightwood is its ability to work in contrast with your existing décor.
Mixing and matching is still an ongoing trend right now: wood and metal, wood and glass, wood and faux-leather—all three of these combinations lend an unexpectedly gorgeous contrast, creating a sleek, modern vibe as we head into 2015.
If you’re thinking of overhauling your floors or kitchen counters this month, light wood is the way to go. Not only will it brighten up your entire space, it’ll carry over beautifully into spring.
If you’re not ready for an overhaul, smaller accents make more sense.

Lightwood accessories are right on trend this month.
With its beautiful honey finish and stylish x-motif, this table will quickly become a household favourite, perfect for storage and extra display space of your favorite seasonal accessories.
If space permits, try it in the powder room as a place to store toiletries and display your decorative towels.
Wherever you decide to sneak your lightwood accents this month, you know you’ll be on trend.
