Create a Cosy Home this Winter

Posted in How To on 9th January 2025

Winter is the perfect time to transform your home into a snug retreat, a place where you can relax, unwind, and escape the chill of the outside world.  

The right furnishings can make all the difference when it comes to creating a cosy, inviting atmosphere. Whether you’re curled up with a good book, enjoying a warm drink, or simply seeking comfort, these simple tips will help you make your home the ultimate winter haven.

Layer Up with Soft Throws and Blankets

When the temperature drops, it’s essential to add layers of warmth to your home. Soft throws and blankets are perfect for draping over sofas, chairs, or beds, adding both comfort and style. Choose textured fabrics like chunky knits, faux furs, or wool to keep you extra cosy. For a touch of luxury, go for high-quality materials that feel indulgent to the touch. Snuggling up under a soft, warm throw is one of the easiest ways to make your space feel instantly more inviting. Explore our full range of throws here, and for  a limited time only enjoy up to 40% off selected throws.

Add Warmth with Rugs

Hardwood or tile floors can feel chilly underfoot, especially in the winter months. Adding rugs to your living spaces not only adds warmth but also creates a welcoming and homely feel. Opt for soft, insulating rugs to help trap heat and provide extra comfort. Larger rugs can anchor your furniture and give your room a cosy, cohesive look, while smaller accent rugs can add colour and texture to different areas of the room. A well-placed rug can truly transform the feel of a room and make it feel like a retreat from the cold.

Create a Snuggle-Worthy Sofa

The sofa is often the centre of winter lounging, so make sure it’s a comfy, inviting spot to settle into. Pile on cushions in different sizes, shapes, and textures to add both visual interest and tactile comfort. Choose cushions in rich, warm tones like deep reds, mustard yellows, and soft neutrals to create a sense of warmth. The more cushions you add, the cosier your sofa will feel. It’s the perfect place to snuggle up with a book or enjoy a movie night with family and friends.

Soft Lighting for a Relaxing Ambience

Natural daylight might be in short supply during the winter, but you can still create a warm and inviting atmosphere with the perfect lighting. Choose soft, ambient lighting that adds a sense of calm and comfort. Thoughtfully placed table lamps with warm-toned bulbs can transform your home into a peaceful haven.

Scent Your Home with Seasonal Fragrances

Scent has a strong connection to creating a comforting, cosy environment. During the winter, rich and woodsy fragrances can evoke the feeling of the season and make your home feel even more inviting. Whether through candles, diffusers, or room sprays, choose scents that create a sense of warmth and relaxation. The right fragrance can immediately transform the mood of a room and make it feel like home. Explore our selection of Oud scented candles for a warm, earthy, and sensual aroma.
