Whether you live near a pine-lined lake in the Northern states or a sun-drenched beach in a tropical locale, when the summer months drift into autumn, there’s a natural feeling of wanting to create cozy surroundings. As the temperature drops, it’s time to break out the blankets and pumpkin-flavored foods.

Here are eight décor ideas to transform your home into a snug, comfortable cabin — no trip to a tranquil forest required. Even if there are palm trees outside your window, you just might be able to imagine those orange leaves drifting along the breeze.

 

Douglas Fir Campfire Incense, $14.99

Bring the nostalgic smell of a campfire into the comfort of your own home. S’mores optional.

 

Pendleton Spirit of the Peoples Blanket, $239–379

A classic Pendelton pattern in autumnal colors, perfect for snuggling up and reading a book.

 

Faux Deer Antler Décor, $39.99

A chic update to classic cabin décor — a pair of faux antlers in a shade of rose gold.

 

How to Stay Alive in the Woods, $12.46

This book is filled with invaluable advice for surviving in the wilderness, but if you don’t have plans to become the next Bear Grylls, the book makes for an excellent conversation piece.

 

Restoration Hardware Italian Leather Soap & Lotion Collection, $16

Even if you don’t own a leather club chair, the scent of this soap and lotion set will at least recreate the aroma.

 

Reclaimed Wood Side Table, $298–398

Bring the forest into your home with a rustic cedar side table.

 

Seamless & Steadfast Enamel Steel Cups (Set of Two), $32

Pumpkin-spiced coffee just might taste better when you drink it from a mug worthy of a campsite.

 

Wooden Scout Arrows, $20

Hang these two arrows on a wall in your home, and your guests will see the point of your cabin-esque décor.
