Create a warm palette
The basis for transforming the bedroom into a real cocoon for autumn is of course to adopt a seasonal color palette. If shades of red, orange or yellow irresistibly evoke the flamboyant color of the leaves, be careful in the bedroom! Because these colors are warm, but also energizing. We therefore adopt them in small touches, and favoring earthy shades such as ocher or terracotta.
The good idea to avoid missing out? Focus on the brown palette! Brown is indeed sober and soothing, but also comforting. And what’s more, it’s trendy! If you’re considering a complete bedroom makeover, opt for the Sweat Treats capsule from Little Greene, which features 9 hot, delicious colors.
Pamper the bed
The bed is the central piece of the bedroom. And it is therefore on him that we concentrate as a priority. Of course, we make sure to choose bed linen carefully, favoring very soft materials – washed linen, cotton gauze, hemp. Choose solid colors or a simple pattern like stripes, or opt for a pretty liberty-style floral pattern.
The secret to a cocooning bedroom in autumn is above all accumulation. We therefore hasten to add a throw, a boutis, an eiderdown or a quilt on the duvet: a simple and effective way to spruce up the decor, and create a cozy atmosphere.
Use and abuse rugs
The rug remains an essential basic in the bedroom. And between the bedside rug and the XXL rug, we don’t bother to choose: we rather rush to adopt both… or even more, when space allows!
Fall is the season or never to add a new rug! More space, really? Fall for two stacked rugs.
Introduce a touch of nature into the decor
No offense to the spring team, nature is spectacular in autumn! It would therefore be a shame to deprive yourself of it in the bedroom. The classic option is to take advantage of a walk in the countryside to compose pretty bouquets.
If you don’t really have the taste for picking, you can also cheat a little by opting for artificial foliage. Think of LED garlands, for example!
Work with light
Far from being a simple detail, light is a fundamental element in creating a truly cocooning bedroom for fall. This of course involves the choice of lighting, and indirect lighting capable of creating an intimate and relaxing atmosphere is more relevant than ever.
As for the pendant light and the bedside lamp, we again take care to dim it. And for that, nothing is more effective than the lampshade. When it comes to renewing yours, think about linen – a model with a very soft look.
Add a typically fall decor
Perhaps you have already put your interior into “fall” mode. But have you thought about putting some seasonal decorations in the bedroom? On the social side, the hashtag #AutumnAesthetic tends to indicate that this year, pumpkin is particularly trendy right up to the foot of the bed!
We grant you: it may be a little “too much”, unless you buy a pretty ceramic or glass model! On the other hand, the autumnal crown, we totally validate.
Remember to take care of the olfactory atmosphere
Fall is all about scents – from the woodsy scent of nature to the indulgent scents of spice and pumpkin. To add the final touch to the bedroom, we also think about working on the olfactory atmosphere.
To enjoy a truly cozy atmosphere, fall for warm woody scents such as cedar or sandalwood. For a comforting, autumnal atmosphere, go for spicy scents such as cinnamon. A fan of subtle scents? It’s a good time to light a fig-scented candle!
