As autumn leaves begin to fall and the air turns crisp, it's time to transform your interiors into warm and inviting spaces that reflect the turn of the season.. With a few simple changes, you can create a snug and welcoming atmosphere that makes you want to curl up with a good book and a cup of tea (or a glass of red wine!). Here are five ways to transform your space into a sanctuary for autumn:
- Blankets Galore:
Autumn is all about staying warm and comfortable and what better way to do that than by incorporating an abundance of blankets into your decor. Drape soft quilts over the backs of chairs, sofas and at the foot of your bed. Opt for earthy, ‘soft to touch’ natural textures and warm colours that evoke the essence of autumn.
- Jewel Colour Palette:
Embrace the richness of the season by infusing your interiors with a jewel-toned colour palette. Deep burgundies, emerald greens, sapphire blues and regal purples can instantly create an atmosphere of warmth and richness. Consider these hues for your decorative touches like cushions, lampshades and rugs.
- All the Cushions:
To achieve that extra level of comfort, add plump cushions to your seating areas. Mix and match various textures and patterns, such as soft velvets, embroidered florals and rustic plaids. These cushions not only provide extra support but also introduce an element of cosiness and style to your decor. Be prepared to snuggle down for the incoming hibernation season……what better way to do it than with the comfort of cushions.
- Luxurious Curtains:
Add some curtains this season by opting for heavier, thicker quilted fabrics or wool. These materials not only offer better insulation but also create an elegant and inviting look. Choose deep, rich colours to complement your jewel-toned palette and ensure your curtains are long enough to pool gracefully on the floor. Why not try one of our kanthas as a simple curtain solution, just attach to the rail with clips or rings and in no time you have the required effect.
- Ambient Lighting:
The right lighting can make a world of difference in setting the mood for autumn. Keep your lighting low and warming with the use of table lamps, floor lamps and sconces. Consider low wattage bulbs to cast a soft and inviting glow. Candles are always an excellent option as their effect is very soothing whilst also giving a touch of romance to your space.
With these five simple, yet effective ways to enliven your interiors for autumn, you'll be well-prepared to embrace the season's charm and create a haven of warmth and comfort in your home. So…..grab your favourite blanket, light a few candles and savour the delights of autumn within the comforting embrace of your beautifully transformed space.
