Good morning, friends! I hope you had a great weekend.
As temperatures drop and we ease deeper into Fall, I always find myself drawn to rooms with the perfect amount of cozy clutter. Do you know what I mean by that?
When rooms have textural elements added to them, or big fuzzy throw blankets, or plants galore, I feel cozy and warm inside. It feels like Fall to me even without a single pumpkin in sight!
These comfy elements are things that tell me… Someone lives here, and loves being warm and cozy, too. I love stacks of books and extra pillows, and when decor items are pulled out of storage to fill up a space just a little bit more.
There’s something so special about a room that looks lived in. People who like to get cozy in their houses, and listen to Christmas music in November, and bake things in their cozy houses — those are my people.

Baskets are one of my favorite things to add around the house this time of year. They provide warmth and lots of texture, and they’re great for holding all sorts of things! Plants, blankets, books — Kuma even has a big one for all of his toys. 🙂 But that’s a year-round thing. He likes to have a big toy selection…ha.
This is the time of year for piles of big fluffy towels hot out of the dryer, and caddies for your favorite Fall scents and maybe even a flower or two in a small vase. It’s also the time of year for brass or copper accents — those warm metals add a lot of coziness to a space.
Don’t huge collections of books look even better this time of year? I think so. 🙂 This is the only time of year that I really love a stuffed bookshelf. Forget breathing room — I want full and warm!
Do you collect anything? Now is the time to bring your collections out and gather them together! I have small collections of a few things, but the main thing that I love to bring out is my collection of silver. I use it all over the house this time of the year.
