Autumn has a way of drawing us back indoors, and there’s nothing lovelier than giving your home a gentle seasonal refresh. This year’s autumn colour palettes are inspired by the changing landscape outside - think mossy paths, golden fields, and the glow of twilight skies. Here are three palettes to bring autumn’s cosiness into your home, plus beautiful British-made blankets to match.

Forest Greens
Calm, earthy, and grounding, greens are the natural choice for creating a soothing backdrop at home. Picture the rich tones of moss, ferns, and shaded woodland paths. One or two green blankets draped over the sofa softens the space, while accents like houseplants, natural wood, and woven baskets build the feeling of bringing the outdoors in. Layering a mix of deep emeralds and lighter sage tones keeps the palette fresh, not heavy, and works beautifully in living rooms and bedrooms alike.

Harvest Hues
Nothing says autumn quite like rusty reds, golden yellows, and pumpkin tones. These colours are instantly warming and make a home feel inviting as the nights draw in. A throw in burnished orange or honey shade adds a glowing highlight to neutral furniture, while mushroom browns keep the look balanced. Scatter cushions in soft textures like velvet, linen, or wool, will echo the abundance of the harvest season. This palette is all about comfort, so don’t hold back from layering chunky waffle weave wool blankets with woody accessories.

Twilight Berries
For a more refined take on autumn, turn to the deep purples and inky blues of berry season. These shades feel elegant and atmospheric, especially when paired with soft lighting and candles. A purple blanket on the end of the bed or a navy throw over an armchair instantly creates a sense of depth and drama. Keep walls and larger furniture neutral, then let your berry tones shine through textiles, artwork, and smaller accents. The effect is cosy but sophisticated, perfect for quiet evenings in.
