Fancy an autumn update? Welcome the change of season with these plush decors and furnishings

Great decor ideas to help you welcome the autumn season

Feeling the chill? The temperatures might have dropped outdoors – but that doesn’t mean things have to be cold and dreary indoors.

Whether you’re styling up a snug room, or just want something comfy to curl up in, now is the perfect time to “fall” into something luxuriously soft and snuggly. Or, you could tap into an Alpine theme and add a touch of cosy-cabin chic.

Here are some of our favourite finds...
