10 Must Have Accessories for a Cosy Autumnal Home

The Season of Cosy Starts Here

As the air turns crisp and the evenings grow longer, our homes become more than just a place to live — they become a sanctuary. Autumn is the season for slowing down, embracing comfort, and creating spaces that feel warm and inviting.

The quickest way to get there? The right accessories. You don’t need to overhaul your entire interior to capture the magic of Autumn — a few carefully chosen pieces can instantly transform your home. Here are our top 10 must have accessories for a cosy Autumnal home.

1. Chunky Knit Throws

Throws are an Autumn essential, and a chunky knit design instantly adds texture and warmth to your space. Draped over a sofa, armchair, or bed, they create an inviting, layered look that’s both practical and stylish.

Choose deep, earthy colours like rust, chocolate, or olive green for maximum seasonal impact.

2. Velvet Cushions

Velvet adds a luxurious depth to your interiors while feeling soft to the touch — perfect for curling up on a chilly evening. Mix and match sizes and colours to create a rich, layered arrangement on your sofa or bed.

Combine velvet with other fabrics like wool or linen to avoid a flat, one-dimensional look.

3. Statement Table Lamps

Lighting shapes the mood of your home, and Autumn calls for warm, diffused light. A statement table lamp not only brightens your space but also acts as a design feature.

Pair with a warm white bulb (2700K–3000K) to create that golden autumn glow.

4. Decorative Pumpkins

A simple yet instantly recognisable Autumn accessory. Whether ceramic, wooden, or fabric, pumpkins add a seasonal touch without feeling too “themed.”

Group different sizes and textures together for a modern, curated look.

5. Scented Candles

Nothing says Autumn like the flicker of candlelight paired with a warm seasonal scent. Think cinnamon, amber, sandalwood, or spiced orange.

Place candles in glass hurricanes or ceramic holders to complement your decor.

6. Textured Rugs

A rug instantly changes the atmosphere of a room, making it feel warmer and more anchored. Opt for thicker weaves or layered rugs for added texture.

Position a smaller, patterned rug over a larger neutral base for a designer look.

7. Seasonal Floral Arrangements

Autumn florals like dried hydrangeas, pampas grass, and eucalyptus bring a natural, organic touch to your home.

Use muted, earthy tones to tie in with the rest of your Autumn colour palette.

8. Ceramic Vases

A simple ceramic vase in a warm, matte finish works all year round but comes into its own in Autumn. Perfect for displaying seasonal flowers or foliage.

Choose shapes with organic curves for a softer, more inviting look.

9. Ambient Lanterns

Lanterns add both light and atmosphere. Style them indoors with candles, or use them on porches and patios to extend cosy evenings outside.

Mix heights and materials (wood, metal, glass) for layered visual interest.

10. Warm-Toned Artwork

Art isn’t just for walls — it’s a way to instantly shift the mood of a room. Autumn-inspired pieces in earthy reds, oranges, and browns can tie your whole seasonal look together.

Swap artwork seasonally for an easy, budget-friendly refresh.

Autumn styling doesn’t need to mean a full room makeover — a few key accessories can completely transform your home into a cosy, inviting haven. From textured throws to soft, layered lighting, each piece in our Autumn Collection has been chosen to help you capture the essence of the season.
