If you’ve read one of my previous posts about what I love about Autumn, and my Blogtober 2018 post about 5 things I love about Autumn, you’ll have seen that I love cosy evenings at home.
I love throws and candles to make my lounge cosy to snuggle on the sofa watching great TV or a fabulous football game. I also have a ‘thing’ about bedding and like to refresh my bedding every season. No that I am retired and living on an NHS pension I do a lot of my shopping at supermarkets. I feel they sell great quality items that are on trend and at great value prices, often mimicking high end brands.
Here are a few of my finds this season
Throws
I have one on each sofa that I use to throw over me, hence the name, whenever I feel a little chilly.I think they are invaluable and for families with little ones or even when your big people are poorly they are useful for making your ‘patients’ feel extra comfortable.
Here are my pick this season
Tesco Fox and Ivy grey faux fur
Wilko soft pink shimmer
Asda warm autumn tones weaved throw
Bedding
A change to seasonal bedding gives your bedrooms a super quick makeover, changing the look instantly. Last year I tried brushed cotton sheets for the first time when the temperature dropped outside. Even though I still have hot flushes and frequently throw my covers off they are still a lovely product and so soft to sleep on.
My picks:
Soft brushed cotton Daschund print bedding from Sainsburys
Asda has this autumnal plaid design bedding set
Asda has a full range of beers and teepee designed bedding and accessories for younger members of the family
Novelty Avocado Christmas bedding great for vegans
Other seasonal touches
Fox lamp from Sainsburys
Plum and Gold cushions Wilko
A rustic chalk board calender from Sainsburys
Metching super soft brushed cotton bear and teepee cushion from Asda
Seasonal candle from Tesco
Red plaid soft feel cushions from Sainsburys

love the plaid throw from Asda and the lamp from Sainsburys! I’m a big fan of supermarkets for soft furnishings too. I was in B&M yesterday getting some paints for the kids and I spotted their cushions… I never look at the soft furnishings in there but they had some lovely ones. Definitely going to have a proper look soon. #blogtober18
Ah yes B&M another one of my favourite stores. I did pop in whilst doing my research for this. It stocks so many great items.
The calendar looks fab! I’m a big fan of tartan, flannel bedding in Autumn and winter. Got some lovely ones in Asda last year. Crossing everything they are back out this year so I can get more haha #blogtober18
Yes the calendar is fabulous isn’t it. I’m sure their shelves will be filing up very soon, I hope you find what your heart desires.
I love that you can get so much for the home from supermarkets now…
I really like the chalk board calender. It’s so cute x
Thanks Kim, Yes when out shopping it is always so tempting to purchase something isn’t it. The calendar is cool isn’t it.
