Autumn is upon us, we survived the heat ha! I know I have mentioned my love for spring in the first ever post, but can one person have two favourite seasons? Transitional months are my absolute favourite! the landscape is our biggest indicator that change is happening, we are going from soft & calm shades of summer to the appearance of deeper & richer tones. As the nights start getting darker and the temperatures get cooler, feeling cosy in our homes is what this season is all about and in today’s post I will be sharing my 5 autumn must haves for the home.

Throws/Blankets

A throw/blanket is a great way to feel warm & cosy especially on those rainy days or colder nights, whether it’s in the living area or bedroom you can never go wrong with a throw.

Table lamp/floor lamps

Accent lighting plays a huge role in a space especially as the days are shorter and having less natural light , I would definitely recommend investing in a nice table lamp for your side tables/ consoles etc to light up and create a lovely ambience in the room.

Candles

No matter the season, there is always a reason to have a candle burning in the house and autumn is no exception, there are plenty of spice infused candles that are perfect for this season. 

Rug

If like me you swap out your rugs in the summer for a flat weave rug that won’t retain too much heat, now is the time to bring that cosy fluffy rug out to enhance that feeling of cosiness in a space.

Foliage

The best thing about autumn are the warm rich colours, a beautiful palette of golds, red, deep rich earthy colours appear so why not switch up your home’s foliage for something that reflects the season , that way what you see on the outside is also reflected on the inside.
