A home autumn refresh can be just what you need to feel better about your space. As the darker nights come in, your internal body clock can cause feelings of anxiety and depression. Resetting your living space can reset your mind to embrace the cosier months ahead of you.
Makeover One of Your Rooms
Decorating is expensive and time-consuming! On top of that, not everyone enjoys DIY. However, making over one of your rooms can help you feel a little better about the season. If there is one room getting you down and it needs a little TLC, a bit of decorating can be just what it, and you, needs! The bedroom is one of the cosiest rooms, and something like fitted wardrobes can make a difference in how it feels. A cleaner and cosier environment gives you the kickstart you need.
Spring Clean this Fall!
Who said spring should get all the fun? It doesn’t make sense to wait until one specific time of the year to tackle tough jobs and declutter. Doing this each season will help remove the accumulation of the season before and welcome the new one. It is always surprising just how much we can gather over the summer! An autumn spring clean makes way for the upcoming seasons when we typically gather more stuff because of the holidays, such as Christmas.
A Home Autumn Refresh with Fabrics
How your home feels and looks plays a crucial role in your personal happiness. While at home, you should always feel as good as possible, especially if you work remotely! Autumn is a special time of the year, and 45% of Americans and 22% of Brits agree. A cheap way to welcome autumn and refresh your home is with fabrics. Rustic colours reflect the untamed nature of the fall. Paired with throws, cushions and layered lighting, your home can feel drastically different.ย
Get Cozy by Setting the Mood
Autumn is often a cosier time of the year for most people. The way light reacts with nature during this season is magical. And as we ease into darker mornings and evenings, there’s just something inviting about it. If you are struggling to feel the magic, there are some things you can try. Cosying up the home can be as simple as placing a few items. Candles, autumnal artwork and natural decor such as pinecones and squashes remind us of the warmth of the season.
Warm Up the Place a Little
Further to warmth, you can take this quite literally! As autumn gives way to winter, we can feel the temperature drop pretty quickly. This happens suddenly or gradually. But it does happen! Staying warm lightens the mood and helps you feel comfortable in your own home. One of the first things to do is to check your heating and insulation systems. However, you can also warm the home with warmer colours, softer materials and perhaps even a cosier new bedspread!
Summary
Making over one of the main rooms of your house can help with this year’s home autumn refresh. Fabrics are an easy way to help you feel closer to the season and introduce fall decor. However, your home will feel much more in tune with the season when it’s cosy and warm.
