It’s pumpkin spice latte season! With Halloween just two days away, it’s time to think about how you want to welcome the upcoming season. For décor enthusiasts packing away Halloween decorations, the temptation to pull out the Christmas tree can be irresistible- happy decorating to those who indulge! However, for those who appreciate the beauty of seasonal changes, autumn offers a wonderful opportunity to refresh your home, no matter where you are geographically.

Let’s take a moment to enjoy autumn’s charm and create a warm atmosphere that bridges the gap to Thanksgiving, a time to give thanks and celebrate the beauty of the year’s end.
This season, one standout trend is the use of natural elements, which brings the beauty of the outdoors inside and creates a cosy, welcoming atmosphere. Start with a warm colour palette, think rich earthy tones from vibrant reds to terracotta and muted yellows. The use of throw pillows, blankets, and floral arrangements these hues will add warmth to your living spaces. A soft, textured throw can transform a couch into a cosy spot for family conversations or quiet evenings. Also think textures, in layering different textures you can elevate your autumn décor. As a suggestion, incorporating knitted fabrics, wicker baskets, or wooden accents into your living or kitchen area will create the cosy atmosphere of the season.
If you’re looking for a great reason to make bigger changes at home this autumn, now is the perfect time to reassess your lighting. Consider the mood your current lighting creates- would you like to achieve a variety of ambiances? Installing dimmable LED lights can give you the flexibility of bright illumination when needed, while also allowing for softer lighting during restful evenings. Alternatively, adding a few warm-hued lamps and candles can gently illuminate your space, enhancing the cosy atmosphere that autumn brings. Thoughtfully planning out lighting changes can truly elevate your home this season.
For those looking to create a statement décor piece that captures the essence of autumn, nothing compares to a themed centrepiece. Combine a mix of fruits, such as apples, grapes, and cherries, with colourful gourds and pumpkins. Arrange them in a beautiful wooden bowl or wicker basket for a natural touch. To elevate the display, incorporate a floral arrangement of dried flowers and leaves, adding texture and warmth that truly embodies the season. This eye-catching centrepiece will be sure to impress and bring a cosy atmosphere to your home.
By embracing these autumn décor trends, you’ll create a home that feels both inviting and festive, perfect for celebrating the upcoming season with loved ones.
