Preparing your Kitchen for Autumn

Date:08/08/2024

Whether you’re cooking your first batch of homemade soup, baking Halloween treats with the family, or prepping for an intimate dinner party with friends – as the temperature drops, the kitchen truly does become the heart of the home.

In this article, we will be sharing some of our favourite ways to prepare your kitchen for Autumn.

 

Better Together

Make the most of your kitchen. The kitchen is a great place to come together– especially during the winter months- brrrr!

Islands and kitchen tables make a perfect focal point, whether you’re enjoying a tasty weekend breakfast with friends, or prepping a hearty Sunday roast with family. And, when you’re not using your kitchen island, why not dress it up with some autumnal décor? You can even make your kitchen smell like autumn with scented candles –cinnamon, vanilla, spiced pumpkin and clove scents will help to make your home feel cosy and warm.

 

Get Ready for Autumnal Cooking

When it comes to sorting your kitchen cupboards (or pantry – if you’re lucky enough to own one) Autumn is the perfect time to organise your shelves, making space for your seasonal products.

If you need more storage space or have frequently used ingredients that need to be easily accessible, these wicker baskets are the perfect solution. Not only are they functional, but they also give your kitchen a rustic, homely look. The baskets are also ideal for storage of Halloween craft materials for little ones, as well as newspaper and kindling for the log burner.

 

Stock Up on Good Reds

Nothing says Autumn like a delicious glass of red wine. Why not go the extra mile and incorporate a wine rack into your kitchen? Wine racks look great and offer a convenient way to store your wine so that it couldn’t be easier to grab a bottle on a chilly Autumn evening.
