🍁 Autumn in the Haven: Where Cozy Begins

There’s a hush that settles over Taunton when the leaves begin to turn. The air sharpens, the light softens, and even Banner seems to nap a little deeper, curled in a sunbeam that flickers through golden branches. At Welcoming Haven, autumn isn’t just a season—it’s a feeling. A slow exhale. A velvet dusk.

This year, we’re celebrating the shift with our Autumn in the Haven collection: a curated blend of textures, tones, and tiny joys designed to turn your home into a sanctuary.

🕯️ Light the Season

Start with scent. Our Aroma Candles are infused with notes of cedarwood, clove, and a whisper of orange peel—like a forest kissed by firelight our Alpine Forest brings the outdoors inside. . Banner insists the “Vanilla” candle smells like breakfast in a treehouse. We don’t argue.

🛏️ Nesting Instincts

Balboa has claimed the Velvet Headboard as his personal throne. Rich in texture , it turns any bedroom into a retreat. Pair it with our Bath Sheets—plush enough to rival a cat’s nap pile—and you’ve got the makings of a perfect autumn cocoon.

🐾 From Our Haven to Yours

This season, we invite you to slow down. To savor the rustle of leaves, the flicker of candlelight, and the quiet companionship of a cat curled nearby. Autumn in the Haven is more than a collection—it’s a moment. And it’s yours to create.

Explore the full collection here, and let your home tell its autumn story.

Rangeley Resort, My Home away from Home

Well I finally got here. Rangeley Resort, my home away from home for the next 7 days. I must admit that the drive has me second guessing my decision to go to Boston on Thursday for class. But I can’t change plans now because I told my pet sitter I’d be home Friday morning to take care of Rocky. Good thing I like to drive.

My little Cabin in the woods.

I’m impressed by my little home away from home. If I

could build my own little place this would be perfect. There’s a lovely front porch with 2 Adirondack chairs. They are much more comfortable as an adult than when I was a kid. There’s also a picnic table for eating outside. The decorative touches are wonderful from moose coat hangers to a vintage rotary phone.

There’s even a Lincoln Log set. Talk about a trip down memory lane!

The First Floor

The first floor is where I live.

There’s full kitchen with a dining room table. I love the dish rack.

I wish I’d thought of that when I did over my kitchen at home. The kitchen dining room and living room are on an open floor plan. The living room has lots of comfy seating, a fireplace and a TV that actually works! Fireplace in living room

The washer & dryer are in a closet in the hall. A full bathroom and two bedrooms round out the first floor.

The upper floor Upstairs bedroom in cabin

The upstairs boasts another bedroom with a TV and a bath and shower. Its so cozy. I could really fall in love with this cabin. Although the bedroom is under the eves, the room is built so the slanted ceiling isn’t a problem. It kind of reminded me of my bedroom growing up with its slanted ceilings.
