For curtains and throws, choose deep, rich tones like reds, oranges, etc. - they will add a warm touch to your room. You could drape a dressy dupatta (shawl) around your curtain rod - perhaps something with a touch of gold for special festive look.

Now is the time to bring out your fluffy cushions and woolly throws - you will love snuggling with them while reading or watching a movie. Also, don't be afraid to play with fabrics like corduroy, wool, chenille and velvet. You could also opt for rich silk cushions in embroidered, textured or sequined designs.

When choosing display items like vases and curios, pick either the dark or the neutral coloured ones. You could also place a deep, brass dish or earthen pot, filled with your favourite flavour of potpourri and on the centre table.

And with the festive season just around the corner, you might want to shuffle that CD rack around and bring out the ole Christmas collection.

Now that you have your seasonal décor basics in place, you can transform your living room to suit the changing seasons and your moods.
