Happy September Readers,

As the evenings draw in and the air takes on that crisp autumn chill, our homes become sanctuaries for warmth, comfort, and style. Creating an autumnal feel doesn’t mean completely overhauling your interiors it’s about layering cozy textures, warm lighting, and seasonal accents. With the latest Next at Home collections, you can bring the essence of autumn indoors in effortless, stylish ways.

Your entrance sets the tone for the whole home. A wreath with acorns, berries, or autumnal foliage instantly creates a welcoming, seasonal look. Next’s Orange Autumnal Acorn Wreath does exactly that a perfect blend of rustic charm and subtle elegance for your front door or hallway wall.

Autumn is the season for layering. Soft, tactile fabrics like knits, velvets, and faux fur instantly make a room feel warmer. Drape a chunky throw over your sofa, then add seasonal cushions to build depth. The Natural Autumn Pumpkin Faux Fur Cushion is a great choice it’s playful yet chic, and perfect for curling up on cooler nights.

Swapping your bedding is one of the simplest ways to shift into a new season. Opt for brushed cotton or flannel for that extra-cozy feel. Next’s Natural Stripe Pumpkin Duvet Set adds a touch of subtle autumnal patterning without being overwhelming, making it perfect for both minimalist and cozy interiors.

As daylight fades earlier, soft lighting becomes key. Think beyond ceiling lights use lamps, lanterns, and candles to build a layered glow. This Bronze Pumpkin & Maple Scented Pot Pourri isn’t just about fragrance styled in a bowl or vase, it adds a warm visual element too. Pair it with a few amber glass candle holders and you’ll create instant autumn ambiance.
