October Bedding: How To Give Your Bed A Seasonal Makeover
There’s a certain comfort that comes with October, isn’t there? The evenings draw in earlier, the air carries that crisp scent of fallen leaves, and you start craving a bit more warmth and softness at home. Your bed, after all, becomes your little refuge once the chill sets in. If you’ve been meaning to give your bedroom a seasonal touch without going overboard, you’re in the right place. Here are a few gentle ideas to help you bring that cosy, October charm into your bedroom, starting with your bedding.
1. Start With Colour: Embrace the Warm Glow of Orange
Nothing says October quite like shades of burnt orange, rust, or pumpkin spice. They bring instant warmth to even the simplest rooms.
Our Red Orange Polka Dot Cotton Percale Duvet Cover Set is a lovely way to invite the season in. The playful dots soften the boldness of orange, keeping things cheerful yet refined. It suits both minimal and vintage-inspired bedrooms. Pair it with neutral throws or cream cushions for a balanced, layered look that feels snug yet light.
2. Layer Textures, Not Just Colours
October décor is all about creating depth. Think of it like dressing for the weather, you layer to stay warm but still look put-together. The same rule applies to your bed.
Try mixing a crisp cotton percale base with a brushed cotton blanket or a knitted throw. The subtle sheen of percale contrasts beautifully with heavier textures, giving your bed a naturally inviting look without feeling stuffy.
3. Bring Calm With Soft Grey and Nature-Inspired Prints
For those who prefer cooler tones or a calmer aesthetic, a grey bedding set can feel just as seasonal, only in a quieter and more elegant way.
The Pure Cotton Percale Duvet Cover Set in Grey Floral captures this harmony perfectly. One side features delicate white ditsy florals with olive branches on a cool grey background, while the reverse is plain grey, offering two moods in one. It’s perfect for that transitional weather when you want your room to feel fresh by day and cocooned by night.
4. Don’t Forget the Scent and Lighting
You’d be surprised how much a candle or a diffuser can do for your space. Opt for earthy or spicy notes such as sandalwood, clove, cedar, or fig. A warm, dim bedside lamp with a linen shade will make your October bedding glow softly at night, creating that gentle “end of the day” calm we all crave.
5. Keep It Real and Sustainable
As much as October décor is about warmth and comfort, it’s also a good time to think about quality. All Leruum London bedding is made from 100% long-staple cotton percale, 200 thread count, and OEKO-TEX certified for your peace of mind. You’re not only bringing seasonal beauty into your home but also choosing bedding that breathes, lasts, and supports more sustainable production.
You don’t need to redecorate your whole room to feel the shift in season. Sometimes, a new duvet cover set in a rich orange tone or a calming grey floral print is all it takes to refresh your space and your mood.
So go ahead, make that cup of tea, fluff your pillows, and let October settle in.
