Carpets warm and decorate without taking up space

One of the secrets of a cozy home is rugs. In the living room, they make the space comfortable and prevent people from stepping directly on the cold floor when they get off the sofa, for example. 

In the bedroom, they bring coziness to the feet and a soft, warm touch to those who have just woken up. In addition to comfort, rugs help to make the room more complete, beautiful and decorated, since there are types with different prints, colors and sizes that are ideal for all styles.

You can never have too many pillows

Cushions are also part of the cozy kit for rooms that call for informality mixed with neat decoration. Leaving a few cushions in the living room can guarantee extra comfort for the end of the day, when all the resident wants to do is lie back on the sofa and enjoy the tranquillity of rest time.

In armchairs and beds, cushions help to decorate, but they also give the feeling of welcome and comfort when it's time to rest.

Blankets add a special touch

A good blanket folded over the sofa brings the coziness that winter demands, but it's also a very functional item. On colder days, it can cover the feet and warm the body, making the moment very comfortable.

Decorative items that make a difference

How about investing in some candles to bring a more intimate atmosphere into your home? This atmosphere is the face of winter and gives the room that warm and cozy feeling, everything you need to feel comfortable at home.

Another tip is to go for indirect lighting, with lampshades and lamps, with a half-lit atmosphere. As well as making everything look more beautiful, this type of lighting creates a cozy atmosphere and goes very well with winter, which calls for a warmer tone in the lights.

Use thicker bedding

Sleeping well and being warm under the covers is the pinnacle of having a winter-ready home, isn't it? That's why the tip is to use thicker, flanneled, plush and wool bedding.

Colors such as wine, burgundy, ochre and brown are very compatible with the season, so you can use and abuse these tones in winter, as they bring the feeling you're looking for.

Making your home cozy for the winter doesn't require many changes, you just need to choose the right tones and elements to get the comfort right.
