Have actually been making pumpkins from wool... Quite addictive I must say

I love the pompom woman on TikTok. She’s so adorable, I want to make pumpkin pom-poms.

This thread has made me smile. For reasons I won’t go into I will never have my own place nor able to decorate how I would like or have a say in it. Seeing people enjoy their spaces and their creativity makes me feel really happy. So thank you.

dudsville · 29/10/2025 20:07

I didn't think of mine as autumnal, but looking at your pic I can see mine might be too. I'm a little younger than you, but similar to you I wasn't able to decorate my own home in my previous awful marriage, and my home means so much to me. Enjoy your lovely home with your fabulous pooch!

Sweet and cosy.

I love this time of year (although I was just moaning that our sitting room is like a furnace as my husband has lit the wood burner).

Fantastic reply Carmtarinabella. Sparklycardigan, there was no need for that comment. Put your sitting room on here and we can comment on that. Why bitch on a thread that posters are enjoying.

Trumpisacunt · 29/10/2025 20:03

Thread really made me smile op .Feeling a bit down in the dumps today and your lovely,cosy room has really cheered me up.

LushLemonTart · 29/10/2025 20:02

@Catarinabella glad the negative nelly didn't get to you. You sound like a lovely person ☺️

poids · 29/10/2025 20:01

awww lovely, but obviously the cosiest thing of all in any sitting room is a cute dog. so yours is already a winner!

Sorry but the black and orange make a nice room look tacky. Just the orange cushions on their own would have warmed the place up. The dark cushions and throw over the seat bit (why?!) are not a good look.

It's beautiful, wishing you and your dear little friend the loveliest of times x

Boudy · 29/10/2025 07:28

I agree..looks so calm and cosy. I like the way you have a rolled up blanket/ fleece for extra cosiness if required. AND your little pal..perfect.
