The days are getting colder and many of us are spending more of our time inside. Here are some easy home decor tips on how to turn your home into a cozy, warm and inviting haven this fall and winter season.
1. Add texture with warm blankets and throw pillows
Pillows and blankets can really help lift the space and bring you that warm, cozy vibe you’re looking for. Opt for blankets in thick materials like wool and choose colours with a bit of warmth to them – like deep reds, rusty hues or browns. Don’t be afraid to mix and match patterns!
2. Make a hot drinks station.
Wether you’re a coffee, tea or hot chocolate drinker, a hot drink station is such a cute idea. If you have the space, designate a little spot in in the kitchen to dispay your favorite coffee mugs, teas, spoons, kettle, etc.
3. Wool is always a good idea.
It might have to do with the fact that I live in Scandinavia but I’m all about the wool in home decor for the colder months. Integrate wool in your space by throwing a sheep skin over a chair or your favorite corner of the couch. Instant warmth and cozy vibes accomplished!
4. Lighting is everything.
I know the days are darker than in the summer and that your intuition might be telling you to switch on every big light there is. But trust me on this one: use the smaller lamps! Table lamps, wall lamps and string lights give off a warm glow that creates a really cozy atmosphere.
5. Light a fire.
If you have a fireplace – now is the time to use it. If not, candles are a great alternative. Have a candle or two in every room of your house to create an inviting atmosphere. There’s something special about that crackling sound of a candle. And there are so many scented candle options out there Try using ones made out of natural waxes like beeswax or soywax for the cleanest burn.
6. Rugs are your best friend.
There’s nothing quite like the feeling of putting cold feet on a soft rug. Rugs can be used in almost any room of the house and they are often overlooked. Bring warmth and coziness to your home decor by placing rugs strategically around your home. Maybe one under your bed, one in the living room and one under the dining room table? I love a pretty woven wool rug in a neutral colour, however, you could also opt for some fun patterns or colours if that’s more your style.
That’s it! If you have any other home decor ideas to make your home feel extra cozy this season – feel free to leave a comment!
Happy fall and winter xx
