Slow down and get cosy with some simple homeware updates

We recently were introduced to the fabulous Tracey Hague Co Founder of Where the Saints Go, an online furniture company that’s been providing unique pieces at affordable prices for over ten years.

Tracey’s professional background was in the legal sector, but an instinctive love for statement furniture ultimately led her to embark upon a radical career change.

Her devotion towards rock ‘n’ roll design trends began during her student accommodation days in Manchester, where she would often rip up the carpets and whitewash the walls in preparation for a stylish revamp (much to her landlord’s dismay!).

In her own words, Tracey describes her personal style as both eclectic and a little ‘off the wall’, a trend that translates perfectly into WSG’s product range!

After meeting fellow WSG founder Mark, it was clear that the pair shared a passion for witty home decor, but it was a trip to a Marbella antiques market that showcased their shared appreciation for style. The vision to create their own company swiftly took shape, and they soon found themselves in India, seeking out the first consignment of WSG stock.

Always staying ahead of the curve, the pair began by mostly sourcing industrial decor, but this has progressively evolved into both mid-century and bohemian trends.

Mark and Tracey’s approach is to always offer pieces they would want themselves at affordable prices and in a friendly and professional way. This has proven to be a recipe for success as the business goes from strength to strength.

With all of this experience and flair for style we asked Tracey how we should be looking to update our home as we go from summer to autumn. embracing the Hygge concept of embracing the  cozy, contented mood evoked by comfort and conviviality that this time of year presents us with.

Preparing your home for Autumn with Tracey from Where The Saints Go.

The autumn equinox is the perfect cue to slow the pace and create a home that feels warm, grounded and cocooning as the days shorten. A few simple updates can completely transform a space without the need for a full re-style:

  • Layer in throws and cushions – draping soft, snuggly fabrics over sofas and chairs instantly adds comfort and makes a room feel more inviting.
  • Warm up wooden floors – adding rugs with natural textures underfoot not only softens a room but creates a more intimate, seasonal atmosphere.
  • Switch up your lighting – swapping bright overheads for softer lamps creates pools of ambient light, perfect for long autumn evenings.
  • Embrace seasonal tones – grounding neutrals paired with autumnal accents like deep greens, burnt oranges and rich browns echo the colours outside and bring nature in.
  • Create cosy corners – a styled armchair with a side table, blanket and lamp makes an instant reading nook, ideal for slowing down and snuggling in.

The equinox is a natural moment to pause and reset — and in interiors, that means embracing comfort, texture, and atmosphere to turn your home into a sanctuary.
