We're sure by now you've spotted a few leaves turning wonderful shades of brown,orange and red before finally falling to the ground which can mean only one thing - Autumn is here at last! It's that time where we start to shift away from the vibrant colours of summer and instead look towards the warm palette of the fallen leaves to bring into our homes. The aim being to create the perfect cosy hideaway away from the chill beginning to fill the air ( except the smell of pumpkin spice of course!)
To help bring the wonderful energy of Autumn into your homes, we've just popped together a short list of fantastic handmade homeware goodies.
Wrap up warm and comfy on the sofa or add another layer to your bed spread with one of these gorgeous throws and quilts from fair trade supplier Namaste. These lovely handmade throws come in so many styles and colours, so there's bound to be a throw no matter your personal decorating style.

Last year we wrote about the benefits of having rugs in the home to keep warm and bills low (which you can read all about here). So it seems like a good idea to think about a beautiful fair trade rug to keep that lovely heat trapped in - as well as being the perfect way to dress up the floors in your home.
