The first thing I think of when I think of fall is colder weather, fall foliage and cozy moments at home. In the fall, we tend to spend more time indoors than in summer. So, why not use that time to make our home cozy for fall. This is that time of year when the weather slowly starts getting colder, the air is fresh in the morning, we’re starting to wear sweaters and the days are getting shorter. In order to enjoy this beautiful season even more here are some simple ways to make your home cozy this fall.
Your home is your shelter, so it’s only natural if you want to make it a place you actually want to come to.
Cozy blanket or a throw
Blankets, cushions and throws are a must have during fall season. You don’t even need to feel cold. It’s simply a nice feeling to be snuggled up in a blanket and feel cozy. There’s nothing better than having a pretty warm throw or a blanket on my sofa in the fall. It’s those small things that always make me happy. When I come home from a day outside I love to get cozy and if you ask me, a soft throw is something every home needs.
Candles
People use more candles in the fall and winter than in spring and summer. Even The little book of Hygge mentioned candles as one of the most important things in having a cozy home and that warm feeling inside, especially during fall or winter.
Reading nook
I don’t have an actual reading nook in my home but I love reading on the sofa, covered in a blanket while a cup of hot chocolate sits on the coffee table. I can look through the window of my living room and I really love this place in my home. You can make your reading nook or you can simply get cozy in any part of your home that you love. If you have a fireplace – well, you know you have the perfect spot in your home that you can call your reading nook. When it’s not too cold, I love to go out on the balcony and read there. One chair, a pillow, blanket and a good book is all you need.
In this blog post you can find a list of my all time favourite books if you’re looking for book recommendations.
A warm drink
A warm drink in fall season is something I can’t skip. When it’s raining or it’s simply cold outside I love holding a warm mug in my hands. Whether it’s coffee, tea or hot cocoa you can’t go wrong with any! Enjoy your favourite warm drink during fall!
Movie night
Fall is the perfect season to spend more time at home. But you don’t have to spend that time alone. You can enjoy this cozy season with your friends. So, why not make a movie night at home. You can also make a board game night.
Make a dinner party for your friends
How many times have you seen beautifully decorated tables for fall? I saw a lot of gorgeous images on Pinterest and I think it’s a great idea to make some nice comfort food and invite your friends over. Just imagine the smell of pumpkin pie or homemade bread spreading throughout your home. Is there anything better?
Lamps
Soft lighting is not just about candles. A nicely placed lamp in your home can improve the whole atmosphere. Beside, it’s such a simple way to make your home cozy this fall.
I hope to post more fall images on my Instagram profile soon. I would love to see you there!
