Fresh from the pumpkin patch…

One of the simplest ways to decorate your home is with natural materials – displays made from pumpkins, felled logs and pine cones are synonymous with the vibrant spectacle mother nature puts on display outside for us in Autumn. Sometimes simply resting them in a fruit bowl can be effective. Use the variety of shapes, shades and sizes to your advantage, contrasting different looks so that your arrangement has a real impact.

Embrace the new season with rustic neutrals, grainy textures and earthy fabrics. With eggshell whites, oaks and plummy reds thrown in for a touch of warmth, this is an interior style that works throughout the year but really comes into its own in the autumn.
