That's why we love autumnIn autumn, nature really turns up the heat and shows what it's made of. The lower position of the sun gives the light its unique golden autumn glow. The trees prepare for winter and drop their leaves in a spectacular display of colours. Temperatures still climb to pleasant levels during the day, but at night they are already practising for the first frost. Even if some people find it hard to say goodbye to summer, psychological studies show that autumn has a positive influence on our well-being: The unique autumn mood ensures less stress, improves your mood, makes you more open to other people and gives you a feeling of security.You can bring these effects into your home with beautiful autumn decoration ideas and thus survive many a dreary rainy day. It doesn't have to be complicated. With home textiles, the right lighting, a little creativity and a desire to furnish, you're ready to go!

Looking for autumn decoration ideas? Fashion leads the wayFashion fans look forward to autumn every year. Because now they can finally wear their favourite pieces again. Preferably several on top of each other. Layering is also the perfect styling idea for autumn decorations at home. For example, with cosy blankets and cushions: on the sofa, over the back of your favourite armchair or on the bed, cosy blankets in strong textures and the latest autumn colours are waiting for you to wrap yourself up in them. Roll them up in pretty storage baskets with a woven look and place them next to your favourite armchair to give the room even more structure with this improvised hygge sculpture.The motto "more is more" also applies to decorative cushions: opt for "50 x 50" decorative cushions and choose cushion covers in strong textures such as woven fur or a 3D look in autumn colours. Mix and match them on all seating areas that invite you to relax, and everything that makes a cosy evening at home even cosier should be within reach. That's why candles are the ultimate decorative item for autumn. If you shy away from open fires, you can bring the golden glow into your home with LED alternatives. Beautifully arranged on trays and in combination with vases and vessels, they can sit enthroned on chests of drawers, the coffee table or the dining table.

How to light up your autumn decorationsThe right lighting is the best decoration. Especially in autumn. Because the days are getting shorter, the sky is often gloomier and the position of the sun no longer allows as much light into all rooms. To create the ultimate autumn glow even in the darkest corners, it's time to bring out the mirrors! Cleverly positioned mirrors reflect the incoming light and distribute it throughout the room. If you don't want to hang up wall mirrors, beautifully designed vanity mirrors, for example, can be placed on chests of drawers or directly on the window sill and easily aligned depending on the time of day.once the sun has set, conjure up a cosy atmosphere with small light sources. Distribute them strategically around the room and opt for warm white light sources and a slightly dimmer light intensity. If autumn shows its rainy and stormy side, the small mood-makers can also be left on during the day. This makes staying at home feel even nicer.
