Fall Home Trends & Cozy Upgrades with Wendy Glaister | Lighting, Color, Smart Home & Holiday Prep Host Eric G welcomes interior designer Wendy Glaister (Wendy Glaister Interiors) to discuss fall home trends and practical ways to make spaces feel warmer and more uplifting as daylight fades. They talk about the shift away from years of “greige” toward richer colors, plaids, florals, and Ralph Lauren–inspired looks, plus timeless details like Greek key patterns. They share ideas for layered, warmer lighting, using timers and simple smart-home setups for lamps, fireplaces, blinds, and thermostats. They also cover decorating do’s and don’ts (too many gnomes, harsh scents, bright pumpkin orange, oversized skeletons, and quote decor), seasonal table setting with fine china and vintage pieces, decluttering and pantry prep, regional considerations like wasps and spiders with wreaths, emergency power planning, and why major remodels should avoid the holiday season due to shutdowns, shipping delays, and scheduling realities.
