As the leaves begin to change and the temperatures cool down, it's time to start thinking about transitioning your home decor to reflect the new season. With a few simple changes, you can create a warm and cozy atmosphere in any space that will make you feel right at home. We have collated our top three ways to create an autumn look in your home.
One of the easiest ways to create an autumn look in your home is by adding the colours of the season. Think warm hues of oranges, yellows, reds, and browns. You can start by swapping out your summer decor for autumn-inspired pieces. This can be as simple as adding throw pillows, blankets, or rolling out a new rug in autumn colours. You can also introduce a new colour palette through art, such as paintings or prints.
Incorporating heavier textures and fabrics can instantly add a warmth and coziness reminiscent of Autumn to your home. Think wool blankets, faux fur throws, and textured rugs. You can also layer different textures together, such as adding a fur pillow on top of a velvet one. This creates visual interest and adds depth to your space. Don't forget another easy way to bring in textural interest is by leveraging the beautiful outdoors this time of year. We recommend displaying branches or autumn leaves in vases like our Vintage Indian Pot with Rope, or adding pinecones to your decor.
Lighting is a crucial element in creating a true autumn atmosphere in your home. Switch out your bright, summer lighting for moodier, warmer options. You can use candles, lamps (instead of main lights), or a dimmer switch to create a cozy and inviting atmosphere. Don't be afraid to mix and match lighting sources to create a layered effect. This can include table lamps, floor lamps, and ambient lighting from ceiling fixtures.
Creating an autumn look in your home is easy and can be accomplished with just a few simple changes. By adding autumn colours, layering textures, bringing the outdoors in, and playing with lighting, you can create a warm and inviting atmosphere that will make you and your guests feel comfortable at home as the days get cooler. So, get cozy and enjoy the beauty of the season with your refreshed interiors.
