I thought I would get in the mood for Autumn, and the best way for me to do that, is to make a list of course! Enjoy. 🙂
1. Go for a woodland walk and admire the changing colours.
2. Refill your hanging baskets with Autumn favourites such as pansies, cyclamen and Ivy.
3. Fill your home with the scents of Autumn. Add cinnamon sticks,orange rind,whole cloves and bay leaves to water and simmer on the stove.
4. Go Blackberry picking and make a lovely crumble.
5. Autumn is the perfect time to get cosy on an Autumn Glamping Break. How about staying in a colourful Shepherd’s Hut in the Lakes, a luxurious Safari Tent in the Trough of Bowland or a beautiful Showman’s Wagon in Cornwall.
6. Curl up with some Autumnal Poetry , such as Emily Bronte’s Fall, Leaves Fall.
7. Dust off the Slow Cooker and make some simple hearty stews.
8. Grab the girls and head out to the movies to see Bridget Jones Baby or A street Cat Named Bob. 🙂
9. Bring Nature indoors and decorate your Mantel Piece with leaves and fruits.
10. Rent a good gothic movie. How about Guillermo Del Toro’s Crimson Peak or Tim Burton’s Sleepy Hollow.
11. Jump in a big pile of leaves. 🙂
12. Fill a vase with colourful orange and gold blooms such as dahlias, crysanthemums and chinese lanterns.
13. Grab cosy blankets, a camping stove, and toast marshmallows with friends.
14. Learn to crochet. I really need to do this!
15. Join in the fun at your local Apple Pressing Day.
16. Explore your local town on a spooky Ghost Walk.
17. Look out for an Autumn Themed Afternoon Tea to try out, or create your own..
18. Collect sloes and make boozy Sloe Gin.
19. Practice your Apple Bobbin skills. 🙂
20. Get your mitts around a warming Pumpkin Spiced Latte.
What would you add to the list? X
I love it! I do like lists too 🙂 I will have to think on this, my first thought was all the fruits and vegetables Autumn has to offer, then there is the magnificent colors to bring indoors!
Definitely! Autumn is finding its way to England now.Theres a nip in the air this morning.I love Autumn colours.x

We are off on a last-gasp-of-summer holiday next week but once I’m home I definitely want to make an autumn bucket list. Top of it will be a woodland walk, lots of candles, and some pumpkin carving.
Sounds good to me.Enjoy the restof the Summer! X
What a lovely post.X
Thank you.Autumn definitely on its way now.x
I love the idea of decorating with Autumn leaves! I’ll definitely be giving this a go once the leaves near us start to turn
Yes its a very creative idea.I wish I had a mantel piece…but sadly we don’t.Maybe I will try decorating the bookshelf.:)
I love all of these ideas!!!
That’s a good list! Not enough leaves to jump in just yet but there will be by the time I come back from the Algarve. 🙂
Aw thanks Jo.Enjoy sunny Portugal.:)x
Love this list! My little boy loves to pick up autumn things and collect them, we have a bowl of conkers to keep the spiders away. 😊
Oh does that work? I’m the biggest scaredy cat when it comes to spiders!
It seems to work fairly well. We have little bowls in different rooms. Worth a go! 😊
Go looking for fungi on trees and under trees. Admire (dont eat! )
I keep seeing different ones but I’m not very good at identifying them. There are so many!

This web site is a good place to start, you need to have an idea of tgee type of fungi and then you can hone in. Not everything is there!
