Autumn Bedding Ideas: How To Choose Your Autumn Bedding

When it starts getting colder and darker outside, stay snug and cosy every night by updating your autumn bedding.

Is there anything better than checking the calendar and seeing it’s time to give your bedding an autumnal refresh? Autumn is all about embracing natural colours, mixing up materials and finally being able to say ‘actually, more is more!’.

Our autumn bedding ideas are perfect for keeping you cosy while the temperatures drop. But you also get to embrace the fun of autumn themed bed sheets, while layering up blankets, cushions and bedspreads. It’s time for your maximalist interior designer self to shine!

Ideas To Create A Cosy Bed For The Colder Months

1. A Versatile Duvet

You might see the temperature dropping and immediately run for the highest tog duvet you can find. That approach will keep you warm, but why not make a more versatile choice this autumn?

A more middle-ground option like the Feels Like Down 10.5 Tog Duvet will not only be warm enough for autumn nights but also works as a year-round solution. Cosy for the colder months and suitable for when it gets warmer too!

2. Layer It Up

Retiring your summer bedding means that it’s finally time to add some layers to your new autumn bedding setup. That’s right, it’s blanket, bedspread and cushion season! Feel free to bring everything together into a cohesive and cosy bedding look.

3. Try Snug Sherpa Fleece

One of our practical autumn bedding ideas is to use a fleece throw for an extra layer of warmth and comfort. But just because it’s practical doesn’t mean it can’t be stylish and on theme too!

For example, the Bootanical Fleece Throw has the perfect vibes for autumn. Spooky Halloween fun, natural vibes with flowery designs, and cosy fleece to keep you warm all night long. 

4. Don’t Forget The Bedspread

While you might’ve had to miss out on a bedspread while the weather was warmer, autumn is the perfect time to bring it back. Give your bed a more traditional and timelessly classy look with the Woven Stripe Cotton Bedspread in beautiful cinnamon: earthy tones that are perfect for autumn.

5. Mix Up Materials

Add some texture to your autumn bedding by experimenting with a few different materials and finishes. Every layer is an opportunity to try out a new feel, such as the Candar Textured Boucle Throw in a natural khaki shade. 

Or really step up your bedding with a premium option like the Austell Velvet Bedspread; you’ll feel the difference every time you get into bed!

6. Get Your Pillows Right

You might not be considering switching out your pillows to welcome in autumn, but this is actually the perfect time to double check if they’re right for you. Have you been getting enough support for your head and neck while you sleep?

If you haven’t been having the best experience with your pillows, then it might be a good idea to switch them out and try a new style. The Feels Like Down Pillow Pair is a great option if you want to avoid allergy-provoking natural down but still experience the same softness and support.

7. Bring The Outdoors Inside

Autumn is all about the natural feel, so why not bring a little of the outdoors inside when it comes to your bedding? Natural shades like forest green and browns can really invoke that comforting feeling of the seasons changing, such as with the Gingham Forest Green Duvet Cover Set.

Extending that natural decor style even further is easy, too. You can add some faux plants to your bedroom, adding in a splash of leafiness without any upkeep fuss.

8. Have Some Halloween Fun

Of course, if it’s autumn, that means getting ready for spooky season with Halloween only around the corner. But why not switch your Halloween bedding up a bit from traditional cobwebs and cauldrons? 

The Halloween Highland Cow Duvet Cover Set mixes adorable highland cows with some spooky Halloween fun, with a design that’s cute enough to stay on your bed year-round. Add in some hauntingly aesthetic seasonal decorations and you’ll have the perfect bedroom look for Halloween!

9. Natural Tones, Comfy Feel

But if you want Autumn themed bedding sheets without a spooky touch, then the best way to go is natural and comfy. You want something that will keep you cosy throughout the colder nights, and the Cosy Sherpa Check Duvet Cover Set will do just that.

In the ‘natural’ colour option, it looks timelessly traditional and will fit easily with wooden walls, floors and furniture, especially in lighter shades. The inviting sherpa reverse is a dream to come to bed to every night, and it’s the best combination of practical and stylish for your autumn bedding.

Closing Thoughts On Changing Seasons

Excited to start changing up your bedding in time for autumn? Cosy bedding is one of the joys of these colder months; no matter how wet or cold it gets outside, you’ll always have the comfort of home to come back to. 

Make sure you choose autumn bedding that you love both the look and feel of, because every detail counts. Get your layers ready and level up the fluffiness, and you can’t go wrong!
