Incorporate some seasonal scents
Updating the fragrances in your home is a very simple, inexpensive but effective way, to welcome the start of each new season. For fall, look for warming, rich scents that have notes of amber, frankincense, spicy cinnamon, sweet vanilla or a touch of bergamot - all ideal for capturing the aroma of all things fall. If you are worried about causing any damage by burning candles in your home, look at diffuser alternatives instead. Not only are they just as effective and add beautiful, rich smells to your home, they also help to humidify rooms and offer natural aromatherapy.
Incorporate a Fall color palette
Fall is such a colorful and beautiful time of year! So bring some of those outdoor colors of reds, rusts, oranges, yellows, and golds inside and into your home to really create a cozy and warm atmosphere. Add various accessories around the house in similar shades such as orange and rust cushions on the sofa, some new bedding in an autumnal palette in the bedroom, or a checked or tartan throw to snuggle in during the chilly evenings. The great thing is, that by simply adding a few key accessories in your favorite fall shades, you don’t have to re-do the entire scheme of your home and it’s also an inexpensive and quick way to change up your decor.
Add a snuggly rug
Adding a snuggly area rug can make just about any space feel immediately cozier while adding additional texture into your home. Incredibly versatile, rugs aren’t limited to being placed on wooden floors alone and work great when layered upon a carpet to create an autumnal homey feel - and the shaggier, the better! The addition of a rug can also make any room look instantly more stylish and expensive while also insulating your home - perfect for the cooler fall and winter months.
Play around with your lighting
Getting the right lighting is crucial when you are trying to create a warm atmosphere indoors, and no-one does cozy lighting better than the Danes with the art of Hygge! Instead of relying on one big, harsh main light, decorate your rooms with lamps and fairy lights that have warm white bulbs. These create the perfect cozy and soft fall and winter indoor atmosphere that makes you look forward to spending the evening snuggled up under a big blanket watching a film. If you really want to go all out, burn a few candles, or even invest in a portable fireplace, not only for that perfect fall ambiance but also extra warmth.
