How to Use Earthy Tones In Your Home Decor

If you’ve been craving a home that feels grounded, calming, and effortlessly beautiful, it’s time to tap into some earthy tones. Here in Oro Valley, it’s easy to get some neutral desert inspo just by looking around! Embracing a desert-inspired color palette is a simple and stunning way to refresh your home. At Nest in the Desert, we specialize in curating pieces that reflect this timeless style: Warm, welcoming, and 100% you!
Earthy tones like terracotta, camel, sage green, taupe, and sandy hues echo the natural landscape of our desert. These colors not only feel fresh and current, but they also bring a sense of peace to your space, perfect for slowing down and settling in. Start with a soft, neutral base (think warm white or light sand) on your walls or large furniture, then layer in richer tones through pillows, rugs, poufs, throws, and accessories.
Live in Oro Valley or Tucson and want to shop local? Nest in the Desert carries everything you need to bring this earthy aesthetic to life. Our interior design experts can help you choose cozy textures like linen, raw wood, ceramic, and leather to create a layered, designer look. Add depth with woven accents, handcrafted pottery, and natural elements like faux cacti and desert plants.
Lighting also plays a huge role in highlighting your earthy color palette. We recommend soft, warm lighting with gold fixtures, flickering candles, or lamps with natural materials to add that subtle glow and make your space feel like a retreat.
