Add Autumnal Charm to Your Home with Our Top 5 Spaces to Style!
Hello Autumn! Hello crackling fires, scented candles, and cosy sweaters! Autumn is the season to embrace everything cosy and inviting. With luscious textures, rich colours and a bounty of blooms, autumn is THE perfect season to spruce up your home and bring the best of the outside, indoors. From your front door to your fireplace, your hall to your hygge-inspired lounge, check out these 5 places to add some autumn charm.
Fantastic Front Doors and Perfectly Styled Porches
A door wreath isn’t just for Christmas! An autumnal wreath really is a thing of beauty! Not only is it an amazing first impression guaranteed to wow your visitors’ woolly socks off, but it’s also a beautiful oh-so-stylish addition to your front door. Why not join us at one of our Autumn Wreath workshop where you can design your very own wreath from a beautiful selection of berries, rich autumnal blooms and seasonal foliage? Not feeling crafty? Don’t despair, pick up a florist designed one in store!
Beyond the doorway, perk up your porch area with a stunning selection of pumpkins and gourds. Available in a variety of colours, shapes and sizes, these versatile veg are something of a style statement in the autumn season and, if not carved, last a surprisingly long time! Arrange around plant pots or stylishly layered on steps. Couple with branches and sticks collected from lovely blustery autumnal walks and the job’s a good ‘un!
Kitchen Cuppas and Table Centrepieces
The kitchen is the heart of the home or so they say, so sprinkle some autumnal magic (and sugar) in this space by creating your own hot chocolate station. Perfect for little (and big people) to cosy up with when the nights draw in. With marshmallows, chocolate sprinkles and other delicious delights, it’s the ideal place to add some autumn awesomeness for all the family. But don’t stop there. Create a pretty vignette for your kitchen island, table or windowsill using a small, dried flower posy, colourful dyed grasses, and foliage. For extra colour add some real (or decorative) pumpkins and you’ll have a stylish addition that’ll bring autumnal charm to every kitchen conversation.

Living Rooms Heaped with Hygge!
Instantly turn up the comfort factor (and hygge feeling) in your living room by adding a bounty of blankets in plush textures like chunky knit, bouclé, or velvet. Make it extra inviting with soft plump cushions in warm tones like berry, burnt orange and earthy brown for that truly autumn vibe. Candles are the must-have addition to your living room for that beautiful glow and atmosphere. We love the stunningly scented candles of The Naked Candle Company ('The Florist' being our all time fave of course!) as well as Cedar Candles in fragrances like the woody Torii, all perfect for autumn nights.
Your living room is a great place to bring the outdoors inside with plants that love the warmth of central heating like the gorgeous Monstera! This air purifying plant not only helps keep the air indoors clean, but also thrives in indirect light making it perfect for autumn. For pops of seasonal colour on your mantel or sideboard, create a display of dried foliage, twigs, decorative pumpkins and candles.

Hallways Full of Autumn Charm
Flowers always add an instant oomph to any room, so beautiful blooms in your hallway are the perfect welcome, especially when they are in the lovely caramel colours of autumn! Indulge in fresh blooms like our Autumn Bouquet for an easy-peasy pop of loveliness or go big with the Autumn Showstopper for an insta-worthy twist on autumn. For those of you that can’t decide between the two, check out our Simply Autumn Foliage collection that is the perfect combination autumnal foliage, expertly arranged to be a seasonal hit!
For the final finishing touches, try adding simple accessories to your entrance like a bowl of pinecones collected from walks, or a selection of decorative pumpkins and gourds. Then simply grab a pumpkin spiced latte and sit back to admire your work!

Bedrooms with Extra Snuggle Factor!
Get your bedroom brimming with autumnal charm by adding lots of lovely layers to your bedding. Plush blankets and cushions in a variety of colours and textures will all add to the cosy factor at bedtime. Adding an oil burner with gorgeous Cedar Lifestyle Essential Oils will create a relaxing atmosphere filled with the rich scents of the season. For something different, why not add a trailing Epipremnum entwined with twinkling fairy lights to a shelf or dresser for a perfect pop of nature that’s guaranteed to make you smile!
From simple fresh floral arrangements to delectable, dried displays, from pumpkins to pinecones, adding autumn into your home is so much fun!
We just love that hygge feeling! So, what are you waiting for? Cosy up your home this season with The Flower lounge. Then you can get on with the *serious* business of snuggling down to binge watch telly as the velvety autumn nights draw in. Bliss!
