Autumn is coming. If you're someone who likes to change your home and garden decor to match the seasons, you're probably already thinking about ways to add a touch of Autumn. Well, here at Goodwin, we believe that any outdoor space can be transformed with a little imagination.

Once you've got your beautiful and comfortable garden in place, you can focus on accessorising to create a truly autumnal space. Here are some of our suggestions for autumn patio decor that will have your neighbours looking green with envy.

1. Weatherproofing

During autumn the weather can be unpredictable. Sometimes, we'll have a really crisp, cold but sunny day, and before you know it it'll be pouring it down with rain. As such, it's important that you think about weatherproofing your patio. This means protecting, replacing or removing anything that could be damaged by the changing weather.

If you've got the all-weather outdoor furniture, you can rest assured that the patio itself will withstand whatever autumn throws at it. A great way to make sure you and your guests aren't caught out by a sudden downpour is to install an umbrella.

2. Add Autumnal Colours

One of the easiest ways to make your patio look fit for autumn is to add earthy, deep tones and remove bright summer colours. Now you can choose the outdoor furniture with autumn color, like rust, mustard and brown will really set the tone for the months ahead.

3. Make it Child Friendly

One of the great joys of autumn is Halloween. Every year, children and their parents get dressed up and head out trick or treating, so, if your patio is at the front of your house, you might need to so some child-proofing.

Removing sharp objects, breakables and precious items can help ensure that your patio is kept in good condition throughout autumn. Children with sheets over their heads (also known as ghosts) could be stumbling around in the dark and easily fall over and hurt themselves. Being conscious of the little ones that might visit your patio this autumn is a great way to avoid accidental injuries.
