As the leaves turn golden and the air becomes colder, it’s time to get cosy! And that means, the shift in seasons is a wonderful time to refresh your décor, creating a warm and inviting space perfect for snuggling up with a cup of tea or hosting for friends and family. Here are some autumn home décor ideas that will help you transition your space into a seasonal haven.
Embrace Warm Tones
One of the easiest ways to reflect autumn vibes is through colour. Incorporate beautiful warm tones such as deep oranges, rich reds, and earthy browns into your décor. Consider swapping out lighter summer cushions for ones in velvet or wool in these autumnal shades, and throws in similar hues can add a layer of comfort to your sofas and armchairs, making them perfect for chilly evenings!
Textiles
Texture is key to creating a warm and inviting space. Layering textiles can add depth and comfort to your home. Think about incorporating chunky knit blankets, faux fur throws, and plush cushions. For instance, this super soft Forest Green Cotton Throw will take the chill off on cooler autumn nights, providing both warmth and a touch of seasonal colour. You could also pick out a soft rug to tie a room together and provide warmth.
Top Tip! Mixing different materials not only enhances the aesthetic but also makes your home feel cosy and welcoming.
Add Candles and Lighting

As the days grow shorter, enhancing your home’s lighting can make a big difference. Incorporate candles in varying heights and sizes throughout your space, such as this Green Rainbow Candle to add a unique shape. This time of year is a great time to stock up on scented candles, pick out autumn fragrances such as cinnamon, pumpkin spice, or apple pie! String lights or fairy lights can add a magical glow too, especially in the evenings. Place them in jars or weave them through garlands for a quirky touch.
Seasonal Centrepieces
A great tip to create eye-catching Autumn centrepieces for your dining table or coffee table is to use natural elements, such as seasonal fruits like apples, pears, and pumpkins, or arranging a bouquet of dried flowers or autumn foliage in a rustic vase. Why not incorporate pinecones, acorns, and branches into your centrepiece as well? Fans of rustic décor will enjoy the fresh-from-the-garden look that comes with bringing touches of nature into the home!
Festive Touches

Autumn is often associated with Halloween and cosy nights, so don’t shy away from adding a few festive touches to your décor! Why not place decorative pumpkins around your home? Real or artificial, they add a charming element that speaks to the season. Wreaths made of dried leaves, berries, or even fabric can effortlessly elevate your front door or interior walls, welcoming guests with a warm seasonal greeting. Our Felt Autumn Wreath is perfect for that touch, its combination of golden, burnt orange and deep burgundy leaves will compliment your autumnal décor to perfection.

If you’re feeling creative, you could even create a DIY gallery wall with your own seasonal artwork.
