Color Therapy: Orange For Fall

Autumn is officially here! What better way to change up your space than to flow with the seasons– and utilize color therapy in your home!? If you’re wanting to bring fall tones into your space, incorporating orange is a great way to start!

Not only is Halloween a major focal point of October, but the backdrops of color changing leaves and chilly days makes this month a cozy, intimate time! Orange is a color that is found in all things fall, which is great news, because tones of orange will bring a boost of energy and feelings of gratitude.

Incorporating orange in your home, whether it be in your pillows, curtains or simply a rug, will provide your space with a fresh feeling of creative energy and an aura of thanks and excitement. Orange is also a common color in sunsets and rises, which bring in good energy and intense beauty.

Fall nights are all about entertaining, so think of brining orange tones onto your tabletop. This can be as simple as creating a fall bouquet with orange blooms or even setting the table with napkins featuring patterns in orange.

Think burnt orange, light orange, tangerine and rusty tones! These deep colors look great styled with bright yellows or vintage mustard tones. For a modern fall feeling incorporate browns and sands to ground the deep pallet. For a rich feeling, navy blues and indigo patterns pair nicely with terracotta toned orange!

Bunglo Organic Cotton Face Masks

Masks–this is is our new normal. And as we navigate these uncertain times, it is important to remember why these masks are a new part of our society.

Protection.

If protection is the main goal, then why are so many of these masks made from synthetic materials sprayed with chemicals? Why are we not protecting our skin? Why are we putting in effort to protect others, yet paying no attention to the direct harm we are causing our own bodies?

It’s time to start connecting the dots – we can protect others as well as ourselves! Choose a mask made from organic materials. Fabrics that will not cause harm to your skin, such as organic cotton. We are proud of our nation for coming together and taking the necessary precautions to aid in the recovery of our world, which makes this message even more important to share.

We are happy to share these bunglo face masks made from 100% organic cotton. They are made in Los Angeles to support domestic production. Not only are these face masks safe for your skin, they are also made in patterns that will emit bright and happy vibes. Your expressions may be covered, but these masks will sufficiently facilitate that cheeky smile cracking beneath.

Fabrics You’ll Love For Fall Weather

As the weather starts to change, it’s a good idea to switch out your summer textiles for more hearty, warm fabrics. Wool and organic cotton bases for autumn will refresh your design and create a cozy winter bunker in your space!

The wool family is large and a cold weather staple. Cashmere, merino, mohair and flannel are all a part of the wool family, which makes them incredible insulators to keep the heat in. Wool is the most hearty of winter fabrics, perfect for living room throws or even a full bedding set for cold climates.

Organic Cotton is a versatile textile, making it a great option for any season. Soft and breathable, yet still able to keep the heat in, this fabric can be used for bedding as well as upholstering chairs, couches etc. Pick colors that bring your space into a dreamy, autumn landscape.

Linen is another trans-seasonal fabric. Not everyone needs a heavy wool blanket for fall, so if you find yourself in more moderate weather, linen will be your best option. Flax linen is a natural, soft fabric. You can add warmth by simply adding extra layers, yet the properties of linen ensure that you will still be kept cool. If you still desire a fall aesthetic, simply purchase bedding, upholstering fabric or blankets in colors such as rust, terracotta, clay and burgundy.

We love the deep fall colors, such as the Eclectic Moon Fabric featured above, from bunglo! Check out hundreds of patterns on. organic cotton and linen fabric. Perfect home fabric for your next interior design project going into fall.
