Getting Ready for Autumn Gift Guide*

by Yeah Lifestyle

There is nothing like getting your home ready to embrace everything Autumn as we say goodbye to the warm summer weather.

I find that this is the season we pack away majority of our garden equipment, outdoor toys and make the best of the dry warm evenings as we tuck in a warm blanket sitting by the fire in the garden.

In this guide, we share some fantastic items such as Falling Leaves 3-Wick Jar Candle from PartyLite to get your home smelling fabulous, Trendhim’s Frisco Brown Urban Tube Scarf to keep you or your other half warm as you head out on walks.

If you are getting your garden ready for the winter months and pruning trees and cutting down branches, these Fiskars ReNew Gardening Scissors would be perfect to help you cut thick flower branches and stems.

With the colder months, we make more use of our corner summer house and I find that having a nice snuggly and statement cushion adds to the atmosphere hence we feature Mineheart Cushion designed by artist Himitsuhana.  Finally, if you are looking at ways to stay warm at home without turning your heating on, then the Heated Throw Blanket from VonHaus would be the perfect way to stay warm this Autumn.

So keep on reading to find out more about these fabulous items.

Autumn Gift Guide 3 Wick Candle

Falling Leaves 3-Wick Jar Candle from PartyLite

I love scented candles and often have them around my house to create warmth and give my home an inviting feel.  Autumn themed candles are one of my favourite as I find that scents of maple leaves, crisp cedarwood and bergamot so warm and comforting.

In this guide, to celebrate all things Autumn, we are showcasing the Falling Leaves, the 3-wick jar candle blended with essential oils from PartyLife so you can create an exotic autumnal aroma in your home.

Our reader’s would be pleased to learn that PartyLite’s candles are cruelty-free and free of parabens, phthalates, sulfates and toxins hence you can burn the candle without worrying about chemical irritation or allergy reaction.  The beautiful smelling candle which has a recommended of 25-45 hours of burn time retails for £24.95 and you can purchase it directly from PartyLite.

Do remember that if burning candles, place them on a heat-resistant base and do shorten the wick to approx. 0.5 cm before each relighting to contain the flame. Do also keep an eye to make sure the wicks have enough distance to the edge of the glass. If a wick is too close to the edge of the glass, extinguish the flame and return the wick to its original position before the wax cools down. Also note that as a rule of thumb, candles should not be allowed to burn for longer than four hours.  After putting out the flame, let the candle cool for two hours before relighting.

Autumn Gift Guide Cushion on Bench

Mineheart Cushion designed by Artist Himitsuhana

As the cold Autumn sets in, I find that I am spending more time in my summer house and my living room and I find that adding interesting items such as seasonal statement art pieces inspires my space.

This autumn, we are showcasing Water is not Enough Cushion from Mineheart whereby the artwork has been designed by artist Himitsuhana.  The artwork shows a young lady washing at the side of a babbling brook, dressed in luxurious velvets and taffeta, with Cherubs in the background.  This artwork is a modern twist derived from the traditional portraits of the 18th century when landed gentry were depicted outside in their pleasure gardens and grottos.

The cushion has the stunning design printed on front with plain black chic velvet back with a black concealed zip.  The cushion has a velvet fabric  finish and comes in a size of 45×45.  This arrived vacuum packed and is priced at £52 per cushion but does make a statement! Head to the website to purchase the 5 cushions from this series here or other arty home accessories and wall art.

A little background about the artist Himitsuhama, named Chiara Fersini at birth, and born in 1986, she took a degree in Foreign Languages, English and Japanese.  Since she was a child she was surrounded by art. Her mother, a painter and decorator, handed down to her the love for beauty and encouraged her inclination for visual arts. Her interest for photography is very recent; it started out after a study journey to Japan in. She enjoys showcasing her fears, dreams, sorrow and joy onto print to feel free.

Autumn Gift Guide Man Heated Blanket

Heated Throw Blanket by VonHaus

With the latest energy crisis hitting he UK, we find that like many other households, we are trying to reduce our heating bill by limiting how long we turn our heating on for.

To help our readers stay warm, we are recommending this double flannel heated throw from VonHaus which will help you stay warm and cosy in a cold house.  You can either use the soft fleece on its own or use the digital remote click to turn the heating on.  It has 9 heat settings and it also comes with a built-in timer.

This soft throw weighs around 2kg and has a dimensions of 160cm x 130cm which means both my kids can easily snuggle under this blanket comfortably or it fits me entirely with lots of room. The heat temperature can be set from 20-55°C and the blanket only takes minutes to heat up and keep me warm.  The lined fleece is made of 250gsm double flannel, hence it kept me warm even without the heating turned on.

I only found the wiring a tiny bit bulky but that did not bother me at all as it was in the corner of the blanket. I would also recommend using an extension cord if the power socket is not too close to where you are seated.  The blanket is also perfect to be used in your bedroom. The controls also comes with automatic shut-off to protect against overheating.

The blanket can be machine washable up to 30 degrees, just remember to detach the plug before you do so.  Priced at £54.99 and you can purchase it here and comes with free UK Mainland delivery within 3-5 days.

This time of year most gift guides are already suggesting Christmas related gift ideas. I love that these are autumn related. I love the scented fall candles. They make the house smell so cozy. I could also use the gardening scissors as I have a lot of fall plants that need cutting back. But, they are all great ideas.
