It is that time of the year when you still remember summer like it was yesterday, but the reality is – October has already begun and fall festivities and routines are rising in full bloom. Here we have compiled a list of activities and objects that will help you to get into the cozy fall mood and enjoy the season to the fullest!
Cozy up in a fall hoodie or jumper
First things first, you need to feel warm and cozy yourself to go for any activities. Taking out of the closet that fluffy hoodie or oversized jumper is one of the joys when the cold season starts. Enjoy it! Maybe you have a favorite home item that you usually wear when snuggling on the couch or it is something that is suitable for weekend outing or even work. Nevertheless, a warm fall clothing item is the first step on how to get into the mood for an amazing autumnl.
If you don’t have a cozy fall clothing item, it is the last moment to get one. You can go shopping to your closest mall or check out thrift stores. A great idea is also to personalized your fall item, because why not? Especially if you are someone who loves their things to be unique. one way how to do it is to order a custom printed hoodie from a print on demand supplier. That way you can get a high quality hoodie with a custom print or even embroidery.
Thinking about what design to get on your hoodie? Here are a few ideas:
- A black (or any other color) hoodie with a colored maple leave on the sleeve in embroidery. It is just a small touch, but so nice.
- If you want to go more bold, choose a big print or illustration of something you enjoy in the fall season. It can be a pumpkin, reference to Halloween or just a list of cozy fall words, for example, tea, fireplace, leaves, candles, books, acorns, etc.
- Play with words – use autumn puns, word games or fall movie quotes. And you can always illustrate them with a cute design.

Read a book/watch a movie
The simple things are sometimes the best! A great atmosphere for a book reading differs from season to season. In Summer it feels amazing to sit with a book outdoors while enjoying a warm breeze, in Fall a perfect book reading set up includes a warm drink, snacks, cozy hoodie, a blanket and if possible, a fire place. In winter the setup stays similar to fall just with the change in decorations and Christmas tree in the background. In spring, however, reading feels the best near an open window, breathing in the fresh air but still staying inside.
So for a fall cozy reading session, bring your hoodie, prepare snacks, make a hot beverage and curl up on the couch, your bed or arm chair. To make it into a fall tradition, create a habit of it! Dedicate a few hours of reading in the morning or set a half an hour before bed as your fall reading time.
Movie, however, is always a great idea. You can create an event with friends, enjoy it with your significant other or don’t share and watch movie by yourself. All great options, each with a different goal. A movie night with friends is fun, festive and you can create it as a fall tradition. Ask friends to bring fall inspired snacks, make it into a slumber party or a spooky Halloween event. It it up to you! On the other hand, a movie night with your significant other can turn into an amazing, romantic event. Even if watching a movie together is a bit clichéd, it is still a classic that a lot of people enjoy. There is nothing sad about watching movie by yourself. The best part, you can choose whatever movie you like and you don’t have to share the snacks. Create an evening for yourself, don’t be shy!
Have a baking party or bake on your own
Do you enjoy baking? Create an event out of it! Invite your friends and bake together some fun fall inspired desert, for example, pumpkin cookies, cupcakes with apples, apple doghnuts, etc. Have fun with it!
Don’t feel so confident in your baking skills? That’s even more perfect! Invite your friends and explore the magic world of baking together. Even if the food doesn’t come out good in the end, you will have this experience and most likely it will be a fun one!
And you can always bake on your own as well. Why not? Put your favorite music or TV show in the background (or work in silence!) and get to baking. A house that smells like freshly baked goods definitely feels homey and sweet. Create that warmness feeling for yourself!
Decorate for fall – use nature gifts you can find outside
To make your home feel more like fall, some decorations are in order. Fall is the harvest time, so things we associated with harvest are also great for decoration. That includes pumpkins, apples, cereals, hay, etc. It is also very cute to bring inside some of that outside magic. For example, decorations created from acorns, chestnuts, fall leaves, branches, etc. If you don’t feel like bringing in things from outdoors, you can always go for non-nature origin items! You can find plenty in your local crafts store as well as on the internet.
You can also use things like canvas and posters to add to the fall coziness. It is easy to print them and you can change them up according to season. And the image can be whatever you want, if you use print on demand services.
Conclusion
Fall is full of warmth and coziness, you just need to do some small preparations, for example, bring out those cozy outfits, light those candles or hang the decorations. Enjoy this time of year with friends and family by baking sweets, watching movies together or just having nice conversations with loved ones by the fire place.
