What ornaments and decorations
create a cosy atmosphere? autumn at home
Autumn is undoubtedly the most picturesque time of the year, ushering in a period of increasingly shorter days. The aroma of freshly brewed tea, soft textiles, candle flames - these are among the many associations that cool evenings at home bring to mind. Warm blankets, autumn ornaments and window decorations will help to create an intimate atmosphere.
Gold, brown, red, orange or yellow are the colours that truly symbolise autumn. In interior design, it is worth taking advantage of what nature has to offer and using colours that are close to our hearts, which will help to visually warm up the interior. Autumn at home is not only about warm textiles and romantic lanterns, but also chestnuts, leaves and pinecones that you have collected yourself. Here is some inspiration for accessories that will help create a cosy atmosphere for a blissful break.
LOVELY TABLEWARE - USEFUL AUTUMN DECORATIONS FOR THE TABLE
The table is a must-have in almost every home. It is where we eat, work, study or relax with a mug of our favourite tea. Whether you have room in your home for a large folding table top or just a small coffee table, it is worth ensuring that the space is not empty in autumn. Let's fill it with practical accessories.
The Redo tray can be used to carry tableware, but it can also be a functional decoration in which to store necessary trinkets. The autumn atmosphere will also be created by the matching crockery used on a daily basis. The porcelain Motif jug will make the table elegant and we will always be ready to treat a loved one to an aromatic drink. Fans of stoneware, on the other hand, will enjoy the Slow mugs and Feri plates, available in truly autumnal shades. They have been selected so that the crockery can be confidently mixed, choosing between a solid or multicoloured set. The charming tableware will be the perfect seasonal decoration in any home.
When looking for autumn design inspiration for your kitchen, dining room or living room, you can also bet on a bigger makeover and think about refreshing your furnishings. The simplest solution is to replace used accessories. The Bali ceramic container can be used to display dried plants and herbs. Decorative vases and decanters made of coloured glass will also create an intimate atmosphere. The last warm rays of sunlight dancing on their irregular surface will provide a real treat for the visual sense. Or consider buying mustard-coloured cotton placemats to replace a summer linen tablecloth.
CANDLES AND LANTERNS - FOR A COSY ATMOSPHERE
The flame of a burning candle will easily enhance the aesthetic qualities of any room. The gentle twilight will also create a cosy atmosphere, whether in the evening or on a cool weekend morning. It is therefore worthwhile, especially during the autumn gloom, to surround oneself with candles in every form. The small ones enclosed in glass containers and the long ones placed on decorative candle holders will make every moment special.
The elegant Largo candle will allow us to enjoy the sight of a dancing flame wherever we go. The convenient packaging means that we can carry it around the bed, place it on a table or take it with us on a journey. For safe transportation, a decorative cork lid helps to keep dust out of the candle.
Fans of traditional solutions may instead consider the installation of candlesticks. Unlike those that we can place on a chest of drawers or a table, there are also models that we are able to place under the ceiling. With the Hano candle holder suspended above the table, a cosy autumn ambience can also be created when dining. It also saves space on the tabletop and fills the entire available space with delicious snacks.
PRACTICAL ACCESSORIES THAT CREATE AUTUMNAL HOME DÉCOR
Some accessories, such as the plaited Gaia container or the Glamour glass containers, will come in handy all year round. It all depends on what we display in them. To create an autumn décor for your home, all you have to do is reach for the natural treasures you find in parks or forests. Creating autumn decorations yourself is also a good way to spend time with family or friends. Arrangements made from pinecones, chestnuts or self-gathered herbs will bring the scent of autumn walks into your home.
Remember that the furniture is also responsible for the atmosphere of a room. A red, brown or mustard sofa will help to create an autumnal aura without the need to buy many accessories. The only way to complete the available space is to purchase a natural rug with a distinct texture or a handy pouffe that can serve as a small coffee table. This one from the Doppio series has been fitted with a lid on both sides, so it can function as both a table and a place to sit down.
It's also worth remembering the friendly accessories we used at home in spring. The braided Pajo containers, displayed on a chest of drawers or a bookcase, can also help us store trinkets in autumn.
The end of the year is the perfect time to reach for things you haven't used for a long time and give them a gentle overhaul. A change of colour will breathe new life into them and perhaps make them the autumn home accessories of your dreams.
When thinking about cosy home décor, don't forget about other rooms too. If you are not planning to buy decorations for the bedroom, it is worth thinking about a new set of bedding in autumn colours. For long evenings, pillowcases made of cotton with a satin weave will be perfect. They will make your favourite duvet cover feel soft and silky to the touch, and you will love hiding under it to escape the autumn chill. A thick, mustard Merino wool blanket would also be a good option to throw over bedding in summer colours.
TRAYS, VASES AND CONTAINERS - AUTUMN INSPIRATION
Building an autumn atmosphere can start with functional accessories and organisers. A metal basket, like a rattan tray, will serve us to carry small items, but also to keep handy items in order. Small items love to get lost in the depths of the house, and finding them usually takes a lot of time, which in autumn is best spent relaxing with a book.
Let's also keep vases in mind when arranging interiors. In autumn, we don't have to give up fresh flowers, which make being at home much more pleasant. Heather, chrysanthemums or asters can easily find their place in the large Gunnar bottle vase or the ceramic Santo vase in an unusual shape. Place a favourite lamp next to sentimental plants and hang an atmospheric photograph and the autumn atmosphere is guaranteed.
If you work remotely, you can also create the right atmosphere in your home office. The Bolsa jute basket is perfect as a newspaper holder or as a container for completed projects. In winter, simply move it to the bedroom, where it will serve as a place to store blankets, cushions or other textiles.
A PINCH OF NATURE - AUTUMN WINDOW DECORATIONS
The rays of daylight streaming into the house give us the energy we need in autumn. When entering a room, it is often the window that catches our eye, so it is worth taking special care of this space. Soft curtains and colourful blinds will create a cosy atmosphere and visually warm up the interior. Let's also think about the windowsill. This space can often be used as an interesting storage area or even for ... sitting.
An openwork lantern, a stoneware casing for a potted flower or ceramic mushrooms. Each of these items can find its place right on the windowsill. This way, when the windows are open, we can feel the magic of autumn and observe nature, which will soon fall into its winter sleep. It is also a good idea to place containers here for the harvested fruit that the earth has given us. Chestnuts, acorns or small pumpkins make particularly charming autumn decorations for windows.
In many flats, the windowsill also serves as a comfortable bench on which to sit with a mug of hot coffee or tea. In autumn, make sure that a warm blanket and soft cushions are always at hand here. These will help us to survive the melancholy moments that accompany watching nature change. When the textiles are not needed, you can put them in the capacious bag that accompanied us in the summer for shopping and family picnics.
AUTUMN AT HOME AND ON THE TERRACE
Nature abhors a vacuum. This is why, as soon as all the leaves have fallen, the ground prepares to be covered with a fluffy layer of white snow. It's worth taking a moment out of the still warm autumn days to relax on your balcony or home terrace. When the world around us is full of luscious colours, let's make sure we get the right dose of vitamin D and get outside.
Arrange the space around the house with flowers and plants. Dried twigs will go perfectly with gathered nuts, pinecones or chestnuts. Candles and lighting that does not need a power cable will add to the autumn atmosphere. Once charged, the Solar Lamp can burn for up to 72 hours in the lowest light intensity mode, which will be ideal for creating a cosy atmosphere.
