Small Town Charm: How Your Bedroom Can Fade Into Fall This Autumn

Autumn is getting closer, and with the arrival of October, we’re all aching for a change of scenery. As the trees go from green to red and blue skies move a little closer to gray, do you wish that your bedroom could fade into fall just as easily?


Now is the perfect time to let your bedding do all the work. In this autumn guide, we’re reviewing patterns, color palettes, and accents to help you live that ’ber months lifestyle.


Small-town charm is just what you need to keep your spirits high even when the temperatures get low. Whether you idealize family dinners before football games, obsess over this year’s Halloween costume, or your autumn style sounds more like hayrides and apple cider, a cozy bedding set is what can make your room feel just like your hometown. Here’s how to escape into that cozy, front-porch feeling without the car trip.

✦ A Mini Guide to Small-Town Prints & Patterns ✦

Selecting the Right Elements

A small town autumn home hosts the perfect balance between exciting family gatherings and restful, rainy afternoons alone. To reflect this aesthetic, you want to adopt the right blend. Think darker cottons, soothing linens, and heavy flannels designed to keep you cozy after an afternoon raking leaves. Spend time with your family and friends watching movies, playing board games, or just chatting while you enjoy the comfort of your bedroom.


The best way to find this is through comforting fabrics. Whether in bedding or loungewear, warmth is the next step to having the coziest autumn yet. Forget about sinking temperatures as your comfort level rises. Home is calling you– start with a new set of warm autumn sheets from our fall collection.

Autumn is a chorus of hues: rusty red, deep oranges, golden yellows, and coffee browns. Are you spending your autumn drinking apple cider at the haymaze, or sitting in a coffee shop studying? Match your bedding to the scene outside your window. Welcome fall-leaf prints and more rustic textures in your spreads.


Open your eyes the the beauty that autumn brings. Using rusty hues and mossy accents makes your space feel just like home. Minimalism goes out the window after September 21st; now's the time for bright color swatches, textures that soothe, and pieces like our Floral Bedding Set in Beige or Duo Bedding Set in Orange to bring those cozy vibes you're craving.

Living a Small-Town Autumn

  • Floor lamp

  • Throw pillow

  • Minimalist storage


Put together, the autumnal warmth that these small details hold is what will pull you back to the small-town charm you’ve been waiting for since you moved out.

A throw blanket or pillow will add instant autumn personality to your space. Use a white blanket against a crimson chair, or a brown blanket against an ivory bedding set. the pairing possibilities are endless. When autumn gets busy and home life begins to feel less than restful, what you need is a soft and welcoming item that will help you build more memories while remembering old ones.


Don't wait to get cozy. Autumn is the gentle reminder that winter is on its way, and this means that living a small-town autumn is cozy to the max. If you aren't already getting ready for your winter activities while it's still fall, pieces like our Light Weight Cotton Blanket in Moss Green or our Warm Tone Fall Tufted Pillows with Tassels in 5 colors are both comforting and personal, bringing warmth as well as a taste of home.

Sophisticated Items that Still Feel Like Home

An autumn space dictated by white gives you the chance to add a pop of color in big proportions: the small-town feel of real wood and comforting textures adds the perfect counterpoint. This is where small-town autumn charm blends with your personal style.

  • Wooden bedframes

  • Floral pillowcases

  • Authentic wall art 


While you take your space back home, find inspiration in the little things. Focus on one item in your bedroom that could use a little love and charm. Does your bed need an autumn refresh? Or could that empty wall use some attention? Bedding sets hold a room together, while a wall of intimate photos or art keeps family close.

Don’t overthink it– let our loungewear be a part of your autumnal rainy-day routine. The right way to spend a dreary autumn day is inside, letting your bedroom do the work while you recharge and refresh yourself for another fall day. Get ready to get back in the game– don't push yourself.


What's your autumn comfort style? Soft fabrics and classic prints can't be missed. Whether it’s a matching pajama set for your night in or a pair of soft pants for low-maintenance errands, start your autumn wardrobe off on the right foot.

FAQ:

How do I keep my bedroom cozy without making it depressing?

Use warm light: neutral lampshades and incandescent bulbs are best for this. Keep blankets close by, and don't be afraid of darker colors. Your color scheme should stay between an off-white and a few brighter accents.

How can I keep the small-town maximalist look without feeling scattered?

Keep things organized but in sight. Use decorative containers out in the open, shelves instead of drawers, and place personal mementos in special places to help things stay homey.

What personal touches can I add to my bedroom to give it small-town charm?

Put out family photos, homemade artwork, souvenirs, books, or magazines. Small-town charm is all about maximalizing, so don't be afraid to feel "cluttered"-- it's all in the look, and it's a lifestyle.
