From Table to Home: Little Luxuries for Autumn
As life settles back into rhythm. The pace of work and school returns, the evenings draw in, and our homes shift subtly towards autumn. It is a season when little luxuries for the home make all the difference: a colourful vase that brightens a room, crystal glasses that catch the light, or fresh linen tableware that makes everyday dining feel special. These details bring warmth and character, turning ordinary moments into something memorable.

Casa by JJ: Colour and Character for the Season Ahead
Among the collections we love, Casa by JJ stands out for its effortless balance of colour, craftsmanship and individuality. Their current sale, with up to 70% off, is the perfect moment to add to your collection with pieces that complement your style.
Ripple and Twist Vases in rich emerald or soft ivory are striking on their own or filled with seasonal foliage. Dew Drop Jugs in jewel tones of bronze, lilac, violet or amber are practical for serving and beautiful enough to be displayed as decorative pieces.

Each piece is designed to last well beyond the season, offering versatility for everyday use as well as special occasions. What makes Casa by JJ so special is how seamlessly their designs transition across seasons, perfect as autumn home décor now and just as elegant for festive entertaining later.

Setting the Table with Ease
Little luxuries on the table make dining at home a pleasure, and the right details can turn even a simple meal into an occasion. Casa by JJ’s designs pair beautifully with other Almost Essential favourites to create a setting that feels elegant yet personal.
Start with the artistry of Sveva Home’s hand-painted plates, each one unique and full of character. Add sparkle with coloured crystal wine glasses that bring vibrancy to any setting. For the foundation, waxed linen placemats paired with Italian linen napkins strike the perfect balance of refinement and ease. Complete the setting with Helios colourful stainless steel cutlery, adding a playful accent while retaining sophistication.
The beauty lies in the mix, combining glass with ceramic, linen with metal, to create a seasonal table setting that feels warm, welcoming and entirely your own. These are the touches that make everyday suppers feel as thoughtful as a dinner party.

Preparing the Home for Autumn
Autumn is the perfect moment to refresh your surroundings and create a sense of order before the busy months ahead. Professional support makes this effortless, whether it is ensuring interiors feel spotless with professional house cleaning, keeping wardrobes immaculate with dry cleaning delivered at home, or enjoying the sparkle of freshly polished windows thanks to window and exterior cleaning.
These quiet essentials transform the backdrop of daily life, ensuring your home is ready not only for autumn but also for the end of year entertaining season.

Wellbeing and Self-Care
As routines gather pace again, looking after yourself becomes just as important as preparing your home. A moment of reflexology at home or a therapeutic massage restores balance, while nourishing from within with something as simple as delicious broth supports both body and mind.
This time of year is often treated as a natural reset point. Small self-care rituals help you meet the season with renewed energy, keeping you healthy and balanced as life becomes busier.

Seasonal Gifts
We have a lovely variety of luxury gift ideas for autumn, from cosy personalised fleece blankets and Diane Kordas blankets to beautifully scented candles like Les Cires de Bassompierre and the iconic Fornasetti candle. For something different, the silver-plated ice cream tub cover makes a distinctive gift and a charming addition to the table, perfect for anyone who enjoys entertaining essentials.
