Throws draped all over look so welcoming. After being out in the cold festive shopping or coming home from work, how nice would it be to walk through the door and sink back into the sofa while pulling over a blanket?
Tarten always adds a classic cosy look. I also am a big fan of the knitted look throws. I plan on having both this year.
Add some candles. Yes, yes and yes! A cosy home needs candles. Those little flickering flames add a cosy glow all over your room. Perfect used with dim lights. I love these as coffee table centres.
Think fur. Warm and soft faux fur. I will be throwing fur blankets over chairs and stools this year. Its cheap enough online and really adds to the decor.
Set your TV to show a firplace if you dont have one. Its so relaxing to hear the fire crackle in the background while reading a book and it creates the illusion of being warmer. Its a win-win.
Invest in some scented Yankee candles. They do some lovely winter scents every year to flavour your home in vanilla cookies and frosted berries.
Boy a bulb for your lamp that isnt as bright as you would normally have. Keeping a light glow gives a warmer illusion around your home.
In the kitchen be sure to buy some lights for by your window. I like indoor net lights that just dangle down. Its pretty fun shopping around for new tea towels, oven gloves and kitchen decor in the winter. I will be going to red this year.
Fill your bathroom with candles and towels, fluffy bath mats and warm shade hand towels. It will warm the bathroom right up.
In the bedroom I add extra pillows and throws to the bed for added warmth. This year I will also be adding a fluffy rug into the bedroom too and a few candles.
Door way, hall way or outside are a great place to just add little nick nacks like wreaths or door mats.
And there you have it, a cosy home everyone will be envious of!
