I have to say, that when the weather starts to shift, and I begin to notice that the mornings are a bit cooler, I’m happy. The desire to bring this shift of the seasons into my own home grows more and more during those days. I am sure I am not alone in feeling this way!
One simple way that I create the autumn feeling in our home is through adding throws around the house. On the couch, over chairs, or in baskets.
Now, the trick to making a throw feel like the autumn season is by the color that you choose, as well as the scale of the texture.
The more substantial the material that the throw is made of, the more warmth it will naturally create. Perfect for this time of year.
If the scale of the weave is a bit more subtle, then it will feel a bit more relaxed. Another wonderful way to introduce autumn into your home.
As far as colors go, choosing colors that you see more at the beginning of the autumn season, think changing leaves, the more warmth it will naturally create.

Choosing colors that are on the lighter side of nature as seen at the end of the autumn season will create a more relaxed vibe.

Remember, there is no right or wrong when it comes to making seasonal decisions for your home. The key is to stay focused, so that there is a clear message that evokes the feeling of the autumn season.
I am teaching a “7 Days of Simple Autumn Decorating” workshop where you will learn how to do this in your own home. It is perfect for any home, any budget, and any decorating ability. You will learn to shop your home first for the autumn season, and then fill in the gaps. This is live and in real time, so we are decorating our homes together for 7 days! Learn more HERE.
