Autumn Nesting
The seamless transition into fall always seems to carry with it an air of comfort. The crisp weather, colorful foliage, and fresh smells all melding together in extraordinary goldenness. Swapping outdoor excursions for indoor nooks feels natural and welcomed. The conditions are perfect for nesting in blankets of sweaters on the outside and filling up on warm beverages and soups on the inside. Ideal nesting environments include: rooms with large windows to look out of, stacks of books with dusty pages to swim in, and quaint coffee shops to chat with friends. The dichotomy of the drastic and blatant changing of season with the retreat to the cozy hole inside helps make autumn a great source for warm, artistic inspiration.

Here is a collection of art and ephemera that represent that content feeling that seeps from fall. A bed being the number one place to find comfort is a great example of nesting, as evident in Alyson Fox's Bed print. Print 1 by Matthew Walkerdine exudes fall's colors while Print 2 by Mara Caffrone reflects fall's feelings of warmth and comfort. Print 4 by Caitlin Foster is also reminiscent of fall colors with the fine details you might find in the skeleton of a leaf. Anthony Zinonos, Upside DOWN Thoughts print is a collage of a human with their head in nature and Print 5 by Michael Swaney beautifully depicts falling leaves. The City (Tribeca Rooftops) print by Josh Cochran represents not only the scenery of a rooftop but the importance and comfort of small gatherings. The message "We are all connected," like in Jen Renniger's piece, is especially evident during the season's change. Lietuva. Stories of the Everyday Zine by Cafe Royal Books, like any great book, provides a great way to escape into another place and time. Finally, what is more cozy than the beards in this Rainy Bearded City Shirt by Tender Loving Empire?
