Little Ways To Spice Up Your Room For Autumn!

1) Fairy lights!

This is a pretty obvious one but I still do think that it's an essential when revamping your room. I love fairy lights because they give a room a warm, cosy feel and they coincide beautifully with candles! These ones I have here are LED christmas ones my parents' have had for yonks! They have different settings but pairs very similar are available on Amazon.




















As they are so long I decided to string them across my curtain pole, so they drape down either side.

2) This leads me on to my next point; cushioned areas! I have an old ottoman that holds old schoolwork and supplies for my GCSE art, although on top, it is the perfect sitting area if you don't quite have enough room for a small sofa of some sort. I don't have a blanket in this image, but make it cosy by adding throws and blankets so you can sit there and watch movies or your favourite programmes. The cream cushions are from Next, the white heart cushion is from Primark and the oath coloured one is homemade.















3) CANDLES CANDLES CANDLES! I loveeee candles and I light them every season of the year, however for autumn I light halloween-themed ones such as Pumpkin Spice and Sunset Sands; aswell as tea lights in lanterns! I also have a few from yankee candle, my favourite being Sparkling Cinnamon and Cinnamon Stick.














4) Textures! Throws, furry cushions and plumped duvets, scream autumn! I have a lovely furry duvet set that I use for autumn and winter but it's not shown in the image here - just imagine it...
I still have my ditsy print duvet set on here, but for autumn I prefer to just layer up with onesies and fluffy socks to make myself feel more cosy when its super cold!




















5) This can be done all year round, however I think polaroid pictures really personalize a room and give it a homely feel. I don't own a polaroid so instead I printed the pictures off on glossy paper and cut them into a polaroid frame - pretty much the same really! This way you can print more pictures off and use images you really like. For autumn, images go you and your friends, leaves, coffees and candles, really set the mood...
