Cosy Things To Do in October 🍂✨

October is one of the most magical months of the year - the season of golden leaves, cosy evenings, and small rituals that bring comfort. Whether you’re looking for autumn self-care ideas or thoughtful ways to connect with others, here are some lovely things to do in October.

1. Enjoy a Cosy Evening In 🕯️

As the nights draw in, make time to enjoy a cosy night at home. Light a candle, curl up under a blanket, and sip something warm. A rich hot chocolate or a fragrant cup of tea instantly creates a sense of calm.

✨ Try our Cosy Edit Gift Box, filled with autumn essentials like scented tea lights, indulgent hot chocolate, and salted caramel chocolate - the perfect cosy autumn gift for yourself or someone you love.

2. Go for a Crisp Autumn Walk 🍁

There’s nothing like stepping out into crisp autumn air, hearing leaves crunch underfoot, and soaking in the warm colours of the season. Walking outdoors is one of the simplest - and best - October activities for mindfulness and wellbeing.

3. Bake Something Spiced 🥧

Autumn is the season of cinnamon, apple, and pumpkin. Whether it’s a homemade crumble or a loaf of pumpkin bread, baking something spiced is a wonderful way to fill your home with the smells (and tastes) of October. It’s also a lovely idea for an autumn weekend activity with friends or family.

4. Treat Yourself or Someone You Love 🎁

October is about comfort - and a thoughtful gift can brighten someone’s entire week. Whether it’s a little pick-me-up or a seasonal treat, sending a cosy gift box shows you care.

✨ Our Comfort Edit Gift Box is a wonderful choice for autumn gifting, featuring alpaca socks, artisan chocolate, and soothing soap - all handpicked for cosy, comforting nights in.

5. Take a Mindful Tea Break 🍵

Brewing tea is a simple ritual that helps you pause in a busy day. Swap your everyday brew for something a little more special - like calming herbal blends - and notice the difference it makes.

✨ The Thank You Edit Gift Box includes beautiful teas and thoughtful treats, making it an ideal seasonal self-care gift for a friend who deserves a moment of calm.

6. Start a Gratitude List ✨

October is a great month to reflect and reset before the rush of the festive season begins. Start a small gratitude list - three things each day you’re thankful for. It’s a simple but powerful way to feel grounded.

Final Thoughts 🍂

October is all about slowing down, finding comfort in the little things, and celebrating the beauty of autumn. Whether it’s cosying up at home, walking in crisp air, or sending a thoughtful seasonal gift, this month is the perfect time to nurture yourself and others.
