With the weather already starting to change and winter fast approaching, now is a great time to start thinking about ways to keep your home feeling warm and welcoming during the colder months.
Here are some great tips you can try:
Lighting:
If cloudy days are making your home feel darker than normal, you can use candles and lamps to provide a warm, bright and welcoming atmosphere. Even choosing ‘warm’ rather than ‘cool’ bulbs will make a much cosier setting.
Colour and texture:
By using a few simple interior design tricks you can bring a lot of warmth into your space or home. Try introducing large cushions with accents of orange, red and pink, or laying throws on the edge of couches and beds, this will help to create a sense of comfort for lazing around during cold days/evenings. Enhance fireplaces, or better yet, light the fire and show them just how cosy the place can be. If your home has a lot of tiles or floorboards, it’s a great idea to add floor rugs for a more intimate setting. Fluffy rugs are a great addition - texture adds depth and helps add cosiness.
Greenery and flowers:
Plants and flowers will add life to your space, while also adding textural pops of interest to any room. Fresh flowers are always a beautiful touch, you can also divide one bouquet and spread it around several vases in the house. If you’re not much of a plant person, you can always try some artificial greenery, if you find some good quality options they can be just as effective as real plants.
Artwork:
Art can be used to add warmth, style and even texture to your home. Hanging fabric on the walls is a fantastic design trick for making a space feel warm.
