A Fall Bedroom & How To Layer A Cozy Bed For The Cooler Seasons

October 23, 2024

As the leaves begin to turn and the air becomes a little more crisp, there’s nothing quite like curling up in a beautifully layered bed at the end of the day. I am finally revealing the first space of my parents’ Guest House, the bedroom… spoiler alert in case you didn’t already know, this is where we are going to live as soon as our house sells while we build our new home. We have spent the last couple of months making it into a little home away from home and I can honestly say, it now feels just like that.

Today, I am sharing how to embrace the season and transition your bed for those cozy nights ahead.

Get The Look

There is nothing I love more than a space that feels lived in, comfortable, warm and inviting… from the lamp being turned on to the open book on the bed, the cup of tea beside the bed and the freshly cut branches from the turning trees just outside.

How to Layer a Cozy Bed for Fall

01. Start with a Quality Foundation

Soft Linen Sheets
Begin with the essentials: soft linen sheets that feel like a gentle hug. They breathe beautifully, keeping you comfortable no matter how cool it gets outside. There is nothing better than organic linen sheets at the end of a long day.

02. Add a Lightweight Blanket

Soft and Cozy Layer
Next, introduce a lightweight blanket—something that whispers comfort. It’s perfect for those evenings when you want to snuggle up with a good book or enjoy a quiet cup of tea. Choose a fabric that feels as good as it looks; think warmth without the weight.

03. Introduce Texture with a Velvet Quilt

Velvet Heirloom Quilt
The rich texture brings an air of sophistication, while the scalloped edge brings in a feminine touch of coziness, making it the perfect layer on those chilly nights. 

04. Incorporate Patterns

Reversible Floral Quilt
Now, let’s add some charm! A reversible quilt with a subtle floral pattern at the foot of the bed adds just the right touch of whimsy. 

05. Accessorize with Throw Pillows

Layered Patterns, Floral & Gingham
Finally, layer in some throw pillows. Mix and match patterns to create a cozy aesthetic. Choose colors that reflect the fall palette— think burgundies, soft creams, and earthy greens. 

I am still loving these underbed storage baskets– they have been so helpful to store extra sheets and blankets.

Loving these sweet vintage-inspired nesting tables so much. They are the perfect size and so versatile.

How pretty is this neutral rug? It’s the perfect subtle pattern and color. It is soft underfoot and is a great foundational layer no matter the season.

I don’t like matching sets when it comes to bedroom furniture, but I did want a dresser that felt a bit traditional and timeless. I love the warmth and height this dresser adds to this bedroom space.

I saw this vase and it was love at first site… such a classic shape and adds a touch of romance.

I am always studying design books, not only for the beautiful interiors, but for the photography and the perspective of shots. This top launches today as part of Neuflora’s October Collection. You can use code LAINEANDLAYNE10 for 10% off.


Layering your bed for fall is all about creating a space that feels both beautiful and welcoming. Embrace the season, and make your bedroom a place for you to enjoy, because there’s nothing quite like the comfort of home.
