Lone Fox and West Elm Just Released the Coziest Holiday Collection – It Feels Like Stepping Into a Nostalgic Storybook

Have you ever wanted to take a step inside the whimsical world of Lone Fox? I know I have. It’s the brainchild of designer Drew Michael Scott – a brand and creative platform centered around vintage inspiration, character-rich details, and a charming, old-meets-new aesthetic. And now, it’s coming to West Elm.

This fall, Drew and West Elm have teamed up to unveil a collection of Lone Fox-inspired home decor – from dinnerware and throw pillows to Christmas decorations and cozy bedding. According to Drew, it's a collection that's meant to live with you through fall, winter, the holiday season, and well after.

Although it's not Drew's first collaborative endeavor – his rug drops with Joon Loloi are a hit – this collection is still a special one, given the fact that Drew started his career in design working at West Elm years ago. Call it a full-circle moment; this collection brings everything we love and admire about the Lone Fox world that Drew has tirelessly built right into the heart of our homes, just in time for cozy season.

Take one look at the collection, and you can see the Lone Fox influence as clear as day. For those unfamiliar, think of Drew's aesthetic as an eclectic mix of old-world influences and modern design trends. It’s characterized by warm color palettes, aged metallic finishes, soft textiles, and of course, DIY details – all of which come through in this collection.

‘I really wanted to hone in on the ‘Lone Fox’ look, but I still wanted to make it really fun,’ Drew tells .

The collection's visual palette is what pulls you in at first glance. It's so warm, so inviting, and Lone Fox. Shades of green, brown, and maroon are tastefully complemented with metallic tones that give this collection that seasonally elevated flair.

'I tend to use a lot of warm tones, but I like to mix in a fun cool tone every now and then,' Drew tells me. 'We stuck to more moody colors here, but then we also brought in the element of mixed metals like iron and brass to add another layer to the collection's palette.'

While the earth-toned color scheme grounds this collection, a playful sense of whimsy comes through, too. According to Drew, we can see this in pieces like the Faux Bois Centerpiece and the Woodland Fireplace Screen – each designed to look like they've been plucked straight from the forest, despite being made from ceramic and iron, respectively. These character-rich pieces feel classically Lone Fox, topped with a hint of whimsical flair.

And true to Drew's roots as a DIY-er, the collection has an underlying custom-made feeling to it. 'We really wanted each piece to have a sense of it being handmade,' Drew tells me. Like the beaded ornaments, the intricately stitched stockings, and even the embroidered pillows, everything was created with the utmost intention. 'There are lots of little details that went into every single product that really made them stand out,' Drew continues.

What's best about this collection – aside from its inviting nature, its thoughtful design details, and heritage-inspired aesthetic – is that it's not season-specific. Sure, there are stockings, ornaments, and garland strands that will be perfect for Christmas decorating, but it was Drew's intention for the collection to transcend seasonal constraints.

'I really wanted to make a collection that could transition through the fall and the holiday season, but then also be able to live in your home year-round,' he tells me. It helps that the collection has such a grounding palette of earth tones and warm metallic accents. Plus, there's nothing overly holiday-themed either. It's more like a wonderful, winter woodland-inspired aesthetic – which feels so right for this cozy time of year.

Another reason why this collection is so desirable is that it can easily blend with everything you already own. 'I want [the collection] to mix and match with what you have,' Drew continues. He tells me that he sees it complementing your preexisting fall and winter decor, or, becoming the new base upon which you add more decorative elements.

Drew Michael Scott has a way of infusing everything he makes with such character, warmth, and charm. And his debut collection at West Elm is no different. It feels like stepping into the pages of a nostalgic storybook – complete with charming visuals, woodland details, and an old-world aesthetic. Drew's thoughtfulness, attention to detail, and consideration is apparent in every piece, and it makes for a collection that feels of heirloom quality.
