As the vibrant colours of summer fade, we know many of you will be turning to cosiness and comfort to prepare for autumn. When it comes to creating a cosy home, the kitchen is no exception. With the team at Torbitts‘ top tips for getting your kitchen ready for autumn, you will achieve the autumnal vibe you’ve always wanted.
-
Warm up your kitchen colour palette for autumn
Transition your kitchen’s colour scheme from bright and summery to reflect the rich, warm tones of autumn. Consider adding deeper reds, burnt orange and warm browns to your kitchen decor this autumn.
You can also swap out your tablecloths, dishcloths and other decorations with autumn-inspired colours to create a cosier atmosphere in the colder months.
-
Decorate with natural elements
Embrace the beauty of the season by incorporating some natural elements into your kitchen decor. Why not fill a rustic basket with some pumpkins and coloured leaves?
Many of our customers create table centrepieces with acorns, pinecones and candles to infuse their kitchen with a sense of autumn.
-
Seasonal Scents
The smell of autumn is something very special. Introduce seasonal scents into your kitchen space by placing scented candled and diffusers. Scents such as cinnamon, apple spice and pumpkin are perfect for this time of year. Not only will your kitchen smell amazing, but it will also feel cosier and more autumnal.
-
Softening your textures
Swap out your lightweight summer placements and table runners for heavier, more textured options such as wool or knit. By adding cushions to your chairs for example, you will create an additional layer of comfort.
-
Warm Lighting
With the right lighting, you can find the perfect cosy ambiance for your kitchen. Consider swapping out some brighter, cool-toned bulbs for warmer, softer ones.
-
Seasonal Dishes & Crockery
There is no better time to bring out your seasonal dishes and crockery than autumn. Use your autumn-themed mugs for coffee and hot chocolates – even a pumpkin spice latte if you feel like it!
Dust off your pie dishes and baking pans for a delicious pumpkin pie or stew!
-
Incorporate Warm Materials
Warm materials such as wood and copper will add to the autumn aesthetic of your kitchen, whilst also bringing a touch of nature indoors.
-
Create a cosy nook
If you have some extra space in your kitchen, consider creating a cosy nook where you can relax and enjoy a warm drink. Find a space and set up a small table and chairs with plush cushions and throw blankets for extra comfort.
Remember that the goal of your autumn kitchen is to create an inviting space that embraces warmth and comfort. With our helpful tips to get your kitchen ready for autumn, we can help you transform your kitchen into a cosy haven in Northern Ireland.
