Softly TRANSFORMING the Cottage Kitchen for Autumn.

[@theelliotthomestead]

I hope you all enjoy out time in the kitchen together today :) Also, Stuart and I both came down with the flu right after filming this... that chai came in handy!

[@noyramartinez7177]

Could you share the recipe so we can recreate at home ?? Hope you are feeling better

[@FaveWasteOfTime]

Yes please, you mentioned you would post the chai recipe below but I don't see it anywhere.

[@whitestone4401]

Praying for health. Thank you for sharing.

[@annemoore5453]

Oh no, the dreaded flu! I'm glad the chai was hot and hope you all get cozy and warm and feel better soon!

[@sallyapple3935]

Feel better soon!

[@margaretrosin7853]

This is the fine art of homemaking. Making a house cozy for the family, making wonderful meals and memories. Why do so many mom’s see it as drudgery? I’ve always enjoyed and taken pride in that role. 😊

[@IshikaShanai]

It's not for all folks, some people would rather do something else with their time instead, haha. Though I gotta agree with you, transforming your space is always super enjoyable.

[@MyAndromedanCheese]

I would love to do more things like this, but who has the time? It’s less fun when it’s midnight and your body is screaming for sleep. But I couldn’t do it full-time either. I tried being a SAHM but I got so bored and lonely, I went back to work. I’m one of those who needs challenge to stave off boredom. That said, I sometimes envy those who can live a quiet life. Sounds so free of stress.

[@myoldmanbaby]

I think some moms see it as drudgery when they have to work 50 hours a week to afford rent. Doing a bunch of housework is hard when you're exhausted.

[@margaretrosin7853]

@@myoldmanbaby no, of course. After working 50 hours, anything else would be too much. I’m talking about a SAHM. It was always looked down on, like some archaic ideal from the 50’s. Raising your own kids and making a home. Cooking meals. You have to make sacrifices for it but I think it was well worth it.

[@alhv1352]

@@margaretrosin7853 That's the most Important work in the world, and it's essential for the maintenance and happiness of the family, so the mainntenance and happiness of our society. Women have been demonized and despised for this, wich is just another ítem of the elite agenda and the disgusting world they are trying to implant. I'm a woman, I have a good scholarship and very good background and ambitions, and I WANT TO STAY AT HOME AND WORK FOR MY FAMILY.

[@sueriansean]

I live in Portland, Oregon and every Autumn, I have my windows cleaned inside/out as well as the screens. My space in given a through cleaning with carpets shampooed. Then, I transform my bed into a haven with my 800tc sheets, several layers of belgian linen blankets and extra pillows. I even bring back my tray table positioned beautifully next to the bed, for my Chai Tea or a glass of off dry Riesling every evening. I like my body slightly warm, but the room air needs to be around 67 degrees. Autumn by far, is my favorite season.

[@fomcgirl]

The Elliot Homestead videos always relax and bring joy to my heart. Always have to pause and admire your beautiful kitchen wallpaper. This week I made a pot of hearty root vegetable stew and started lighting candles in the evening, a sure sign of fall in my home.

[@soniakirk7909]

Your home is so cozy and warm to welcome in the season. I love to layer soft blankets on the furniture, light candles and sit by the fireplace. Also I cook comfort foods for chilly evenings and today I'm preparing a pot roast with mashed potaotes, carrots and yorkshire pudding. Fall and winter I love to bake breads, cinnamon and yeast rolls. Thanks for the lovely inspiration you give us all!

[@NightfallHomestead]

The fly buzzing around in the sun coming through the window during the intro.. the best! This is 100% our place.. pesky flies always in my videos!

[@donnanelson1900]

Love the calming effect you give when taking care of your cozy home. Hope you both feel better soon.

[@nancymusser9504]

Beautiful Shaye... a cozy comfortable space I love. Love your wallpaper always and your cabinet filled with home. For our Fall kitchen.. my husband and I live with our daughter n husband and four grands so I want them to feel cozy. So I light a candle or two. Add a bowl of apples n a pretty towel. Change aprons hanging up for Fall then bake bake bake all sorts of Fall things . Our kitchen table (wood) is filled with white dishes.. a wire pumpkin with candle in middle. I keep a stack of cloth napkins ( from you❤️) in a bowl that the grands seem to love to use. Nothing over fancy. Just comfort and listening and good food 🍁

[@susanbigknife]

This lady's soul is on fire for her kitchen.

[@anahuron6440]

Because we live in Florida, there will be no kitchen fires for us! But I do set out little pumpkins and gourds in a long wooden trencher on the table. Spice-scented candles are going. I bring out nutmeg nuts with a tiny grater and set it near the coffee maker, along with cinnamon sugar. I also put away the summery dish cloths and replace them with fall colored ones. Your "Reformation Feast" on the menu board sounds intriguing!

[@PilgrimKat]

Subscribed within the first 10 seconds - can already tell from the aesthetic, the theme, and your soft voice that this channel is going to be my cup of tea! 🤗☕

[@ruthramos4400]

Me too.

[@jflclc]

Me as well! 🤗

[@lianeabeyta4515]

You had me with the blue and white tablecloth and vase with flowers. I collect blue and white.... and of course, I love your wall paper, which is so cozy and enveloping. I am a chai latte girl. Hot in the fall and winter ... and iced in the summer and spring. I may have to try and make your recipe.

[@genietillery878]

I'm so sorry that you all got sick. I enjoy your videos very much.

[@juliecarns]

What a beautiful Armoire!! Such a beautiful addition to show off your fabulous European finds. Beautiful dishes, platters and cassoulet should be displayed. Potted up my herbs, brought out my fall linens, and candles this week. Happy fall. Julie 🌷

[@melodyfisher1512]

You just made me love Autumn even more🫖🍁 I’m sorry you and Stuart came down with the flu…a good excuse to cozy up and rest. Be well soon.

[@meghanbugg]

Your videos are like a warm hug. ❤

[@nataliavalentina2341]

You have a beautiful home Shaye! I love the elegant primitive simplicity of all your decor. Thank you for sharing you are very authentic I wish I can see more of these type of style in decor videos and lifestyle, everything you see is the same copy cookie cutter decor and trends. You have your own and speak art to me. Thank you!

[@ontheotherside4611]

I too change out the table clothes and a few special autumn items. I light candles too! I love your how orginal you are. You go with what you love and enjoy instead of getting lost in what's "trending" but being your own trend unto yourself. Its so refreshing. I have been putting the kitchen to bed at night like one of your past video's and I take more pleasure in doing it just by referring to that phrase! My husband and I watch you both in the evening, you remind of us of one our friends. She is a weddding photographer and her husbands does the video's they are their own orginals too.

[@kellyhawes9293]

I have a small round table in my kitchen that I love to cover with earthy toned tablecloths. Then around the holidays I put a beautiful handstiched cutout batten burg lace over that.

[@Julia29853]

That sounds really pretty! I may look for one and layer like that!

[@cynthiaschade3889]

I live in a 27 ft. travel trailer, so I can't do much. I have a small oval galvanized bucket that I decorate for each season. It sits on the shelf above the sink in the kitchen window. In it I put Gourds/tiny pumpkins in the fall, evergreens/holly and pine cones, etc. in winter, Easter Eggs and spring flowers in the spring and Summer flowers and butterfly and dragonfly ornaments in the summer. Its small, but it makes me happy...I also have a collection of music to set the mood and many different essential oils that I pair with the season. Something to stimulate all the senses.

[@evawood9655]

I've adopted the idea of beeswax candles for early morning lighting this fall... am enjoying that immensely as the morning light comes in! I'm loving the way it makes my morning smell, too!

[@amysnell37]

Thank you, Shaye! I'm sorry to hear you and Stuart got sick. Hope it's quick. It always feels like fall in my home when I make my mom's pumpkin bread. We even have a goofy song my brother sang over 40 years ago when we were little and my mom made it. Such a sweet and silly (and good-smelling!) tradition!

[@cathyhunter1263]

Amy would you like to share your bread recipe

[@happyhealthyhadlee]

I love this, thanks for a beautiful transition into the next season. I'm so passionate about coming back to our nature and living seasonally, and this is such a wonderful example of how to do it in a lovely way. ❤

[@makaylaluckie1592]

So enjoyable and cozy! Your videos are always such a treat and they always fill my cup. Thanks for the inspiration!

[@tinafehr8394]

Shaye. I so enjoy your videos and you have the most soothing and beautiful voice. Your home reminds me of my grandparents house. I loved staying there as a little girl and into my teens. Very fond memories. It was the most perfect imperfect house with the smell of wood smoke, coffee, her delicious cooking and baking. Tea never tasted as good as it did at their sweet little abode. I felt so grown up to enjoy a cup of tea with G’ma late afternoon or after supper. I’ve noticed you put a cupboard where you use to have your coffee machine. Where is your coffee machine now?

[@stephaniewillson9383]

I just moved into a shed to cabin that my brother in law trimmed out for me and at last I have a little country kitchen that I love! The touches in yours are inspiring!

[@carlawaldo6705]

Sending wishes for a speedy recovery.

[@irisherring524]

I have been looking forward to this video coming out after seeing it last year. I like seeing how others spruce up their homes for the seasons...helps me get inspired!

[@sheilamuhoro1847]

Hey Shaye, I do enjoy your updates...thankyou for bringing us along on your daily tours of life. Continue to inspire, educate this community !

Hi from Germany. We love your videos.🤍

[@andreabalogh5967]

This was so relaxing and inspiring to bring some coziness to our home. How you live and share the joys and beauty of the seasons is priceless. Love your music to😊 hope you all are feeling better soon.

[@oliviamaria2010]

Hi! I really enjoy this video, so simple and cosy! I'm in my new house, in a small homestead in the moutains. It will be our first fall here. So, like you we kep it simple. Wood for the fireplace, "fall fruits" like cestnuts, pumpkin, quince here and there, the tea flavors in the countertops and the smell of baked goods around the house! Kisses from Portugal

[@rorithomas3143]

That new hutch is SOOO lovely!! As are you. I searched the kitchen for your espresso machine...where might that be hiding now? Autumn blessings on the Elliott Homestead.

[@carahinojosa555]

I wondered the same thing :)

[@shirleydubon3028]

I wondered too!

[@magnolia7490]

Autumn if my favourite season. Am I the only one that displays the picnic basket in the kitchen? Its the first thing I do to my kitchen in autumn. A visual reminder to pack it full and head out to enjoy the seasonal colours often. I smile just looking at that basket. 🙂 I take down the thermal lining behind our curtains that we use to keep the heat out all summer. I stock up on my casserole essentials like Marsala and bone broth. I use more bone broth that I can ever make. I switch out my seasonal cookbooks and decorative tea towels for autumnal still-life ones. The pasta machine definitely gets fixed to the benchtop for the season too. Your kitchen looks extra sweet with the addition of that cupboard, Shaye.

[@bea9316]

Hi’ GM Shaye hope your all feeling ok by now, I’ve always said this I Love ❤️ your cozy Kitchen and your music 🎶 I love when you do your change of Season 🍁🍂🌻 videos especially FALL the Temps are just right.. and it just makes me warm up my kitchen with warm tones and make more homemade soups and just change in linens, and light up some cozy candles. That makes my heart ❤️ Happy ..! Thanks again for letting me in your home.. Love it..!!!

[@somethinggood9267]

Ugh i love these videos. They give such a feeling of hygge. ( Swedish word for cozy). I myself have a little apartment that I am very happy in, I tried to keep it looking cute and get different little decor for the seasons, to celebrate each one. I love watching your videos it's really inspiring and inviting

[@victorymeadow4073]

So glad to see this! About to hit play just after I loaded my apples into the freeze dryer and waiting on my pumpkins roasting in the oven ❤

[@TheFarmSparrow]

That was a double dose of comfort and cozy Shaye. Your kitchen is a haven of so many wonderful things. Love the curtain rod and clips idea. Your chai mix looks very promising. X

[@jesskan9828]

Cozy! You always make things homey and beautiful. I always like your cozy sweaters too! Fall is so nice!

[@LigiaPop]

Thank you very much Shaye for every beautiful video! I really missed seeing how you decorate the house, I love these videos. I like the others too, but these are my favorites and are always an inspiration to me.

Aww. I did enjoy this video. So sorry that you and Stuart came down sick shortly after. Hope all is well and thanks for taking us into your home. 🙏🏻💜

[@jessicapfeiffer2319]

Autumn is my favorite and I enjoy how you bring the beauty of the season to your home. Watching your video inspired me to give my wooden cutting board some love and conditioning, fluff my kitchen for the season and to enjoy a warm fall drink. I hope you are on your way to health!

[@Tanja1936]

I love this!! I do the same thing. It's kind of like a Spring cleaning but in the Fall. I edit the space the same way you do, a good cleaning of all surfaces, change out colors, towels curtain, etc. I actually do that throughout the house as well. Flannel sheets on the beds, warm blankets fill a wicker basket in each room. I love it!🧡

[@karenlyle322]

I love how calming your videos are. I just love your kitchen, it makes my heart happy ♥️. Praying y’all are feeling better 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻

[@danamama6766]

Wow I love that clip idea on the curtain rod. Never saw that before and I dread hanging traditional curtains. I so love your cozy cottage and seasonal doing stuff. hugs

[@steviereeves7411]

Since I do a lot of baking during October thru December, I always deep clean my oven along with the house. I also declutter toys(getting ready for Christmas) and summer clothes that don't fit the kids to get ready for winter clothes.

[@laineykeleher2812]

I always look forward to your videos, especially as we approach winter and the holiday season. They are so calming, and I love curling up with a blanket and cup of tea ❤ thank you for creating and sharing.

So sorry you both got sick! I hope you are on the mend now! Your kitchen is just so comforting to look at! I love your Fall transformation! Fall for my kitchen means always having some homemade baked goods under the cake dome on the kitchen island!

[@Kiwichick138]

:( no recipe in the description? I love these videos, very calming. Makes me want to update my home each season too. I think in my country, we don't tend to dress the house for each season (New Zealand), but I can see the benefits of it definitely. The way you have done it is not over the top but works well for your family. I can imagine your kids coming home from school and smelling that chai latte and the warmth and smell of the fire, as well as the updated coziness

[@LacancheTV]

Bringing us fall joy!!!

[@angellaleboeuf3776]

Beautiful kitchen 😃

[@gpswatching]

Fall/Winter is so iffy here in east Texas. Sometimes the leaves are still on the trees and changing color up to Christmas! Most times though it best around Thanksgiving. So, it just doesn't feel like Fall much yet. I love how you prep your home for the colder months. I really need to get my carpets cleaned before we are cooped up looking at them more. LOL

[@SoulCareOver50]

What a beautiful cosy home you have. It's making me wish my children were still small 😊

[@michellekoen7665]

I hope you are both feeling better by now. Pls can you send a link for the curtain clips. They are so versatile.

[@rik80280]

For us, it's mainly having the heat on (no woodstove sadly), and the shelves filling up with applesauce and winter squash. Also the winter sun, being lower in the sky, starts flooding the kitchen with light in mid-morning.

[@marianalvarado4193]

I loved this video and how pretty and cozy your place is. I especially love your tablecloth and flowers, and the curtains! I plan to do that with a couch cover that I know longer use. The chai recipe looks great, and I bet it smells wonderful! I was surprised how close your chairs were to your woodstove, our woodstove gets very hot, but I think it's a bigger one.

[@mountainvalleyrefuge]

Beautiful calming video and great inspiration to also get our home in order for the next season :)

[@allisonbeaulieu8317]

That chai recipe sounds amazing 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼

[@klwiedenhoeft]

I do curtains the opposite season-wise. In the summer, I want protection from the sun and I want my house to be a cool sanctuary so I bring out the light blocking curtains. In the winter, we need all the light we can get, so I switch to light sheer curtains.
