Creating a Cozy Den/Living Room for Cold Winter Days


Layer Textures

If you want to create a cozy space in your home for these cold months, adding in layers of different textures will do just that. One of the easiest ways to do this is to place blankets in different fabrics and textures around the space. Draping them over sofa or chair corners, or even on an ottoman under a tray are all ways to incorporate this cozy feel. Another way to layer different textures is to add a smaller, softer area rug on top of a larger more simple rug. This is an inexpensive way to go about adding texture because of its smaller size.

Add Lanterns with Flameless Candles to Create the Feeling of Warmth

We all know that candles instantly make any space feel more cozy and comfortable. The problem is, we don't all have excess candles to continuously burn to create that nice ambiance. Flameless candles are the remedy to this issue! Placing flameless candles in different sizes, into different sized lanterns will give you that warm feel you are going for. An unusable fireplace, a dead corner, or even a coffee table are all great places where you can add these to your decor.

Lamp Lighting

We cannot say it enough, lamp lighting immediately makes any room feel warmer and more inviting. Lets say you normally use an overhead light in your living room. Try adding a table lamp and a floor lamp to the space and turning off that overhead. You will see immediately what a difference this makes to the overall feel of the space!
