I absolutely love autumn. It’s my favourite season of all. It’s not too hot and not unbearably cold either and it’s the perfect time for family time outside. Long autumn walks, kicking leaves and enjoying the warm colours that autumn paints everything in are some of my favourite things to do and then there’s the excitement of my birthday and Halloween.
The best thing about autumn however is snuggling up on the sofa with a big blanket, a hot chocolate and a cheesy rom-com that your partner secretly loves more than you do. Unfortunately, that’s impossible on our current sofa. We’ve got a massive leather sofa and two armchairs and if I could afford right now, I would kick it out and get a nice corner sofa. L shape corner sofas aren’t only perfect for cuddling up with your partner, they’re also great, if you have a small living room and don’t want to waste valuable space.
We are currently wasting about 2 square meters of our front room just because we have this brown monster of a sofa that you can’t position in any other way and I’m sick of it. If you fancy a bit of window shopping or in fact need a new sofa, just like me, click here for British handmade sofas. At the moment, we have a dark brown leather sofa and looking at the range of colours available, I think that I would really like to go a little lighter.
A white or cream colour sofa is just ridiculous, if you have a messy toddler around, but I actually quite like the idea of going for something a little different. Grey is always a winner and looking at the red sofas, I now quite fancy for going something a little more colourful. It would mean repainting the front room though and I don’t know, if I can be bothered to go through that hassle again after just 6 months. I might just window shop for a little longer.

Oh it really does. Now that I’ve finally come to terms with the disappearance of summer *sobs* I’m looking forward to spending more time with my family, my TV, and my sofa cushions. I know it’s shameful to admit that, but hey-ho, mulled wine here I come 😉
After being stupidly hot as heavily pregnant all summer I really can’t wait for Autumn and Winter this year!
I love halloween, the kids get so excited and I love dressing them up….putting on scary faces, douking for apples, treacle scones on strings (messy but fun lol). This, of course, after going round neighbours and filling up with the goody bags lol. Must say the amount of monkey nuts wasted (they don’t like them 😀 ) would keep lots of poor starving children in the world fed for weeks. The apples and sweeties are a different matter altogether though 😀 Great fun for us all, even though the cleaning up takes forever.
My sofa is cream, and looks in a right state due to the kids! I do love cuddling on it though
Too right! I love the Autumn – I prefer the cold to the heat!
I’d never get a white or cream sofa. We have a lightish green sofa which is bad enough!
Love autumn, don’t even mind it being cold as long as it doesn’t rain!
