Slow Sips & Early Shadows: Handmade Pieces to Ease into Fall
When Summer Slows, Style Should Too
We’re at that beautiful tipping point. The mornings feel cooler. The sunlight filters through leaves just a bit lower. And while the calendar still says summer, your soul is already craving fall scents, candles, and a softer way of living.
Rather than rushing into pumpkins and plaid, now’s the perfect time to make small, intentional updates that feel like fall—without saying it out loud.
That’s where our handmade décor steps in.
Cozy Up with Handmade Coasters
There’s nothing like that first sip of hot coffee in the morning—or a wind-down cup of tea at dusk. Our handcrafted resin and walnut coaster sets are the kind of small luxury that elevates your daily ritual.
Perfect transitional picks:
Twilight Cascade – moody blue and black resin on warm walnut
Copper Creek – earthy copper tones, ideal for early autumn hues
Lavender Drift – still floral, but deep enough for fall's arrival
💡 Style them beside a candle, a stack of books, or your favorite mug in a cozy corner of your home.
Boards That Carry the Mood
Our live edge charcuterie boards aren’t just for parties—they’re perfect for everyday elegance. Use them to serve up an afternoon snack, display seasonal produce, or layer under a ceramic bowl of apples on your kitchen island.
As the colors outside start to shift, reach for boards with rich tones and saturated resin rivers. They make even simple moments feel styled.
Our favorite picks:
Berry Bliss – deep purples with moody late-summer energy
Raspberry Ripple – romantic and bold, perfect for late evenings
Pumpkin Orange River Board – warm, spicy, and just the right amount of autumn
✨ Use them solo as a focal point or pair with matching coasters for a complete look.
A Hint of Fall on Your Walls
You don’t need a full makeover—just one piece of art that reflects the shift in season. Our canvas wall art and epoxy resin rounds bring nature indoors with elegance and emotion.
Look for pieces with:
Hints of deeper greens, purples, or ambers
Moody forest scenes or warm, quiet animals
Soft florals that lean into fall color without losing their bloom
Featured suggestions:
Painterly Hydrangeas – soft petals with a grounded tone
Garden Greetings – resin-sealed round with florals and birds
🖼️ Hang them near an entryway, reading nook, or coffee station for a cozy autumn touch.
Lean Into Ritual: Your Space Deserves It
This isn’t about a seasonal overhaul. It’s about small, meaningful changes that help you connect to the moment.
Swap your citrus-scented candle for clove or vanilla
Add a throw blanket to your entry bench
Hang a late-summer floral wreath
Style a charcuterie board with figs, brie, and rosemary
Replace one bright-toned piece of art with a more grounded hue
These tiny shifts create a sense of presence—and that’s where the magic of fall begins.
