The beginning of winter – especially for those living in the upper Midwest during a pandemic– is the perfect time of year to revamp your home’s interior space. If you’ve been cooped up at home more than usual and have started to notice some areas of improvement around the home or simply want a fresh look after so much time, you may want to consider freshening up your decor.

This winter in particular will be all about coziness and comfort. Making your space cozier in anticipation of colder weather will not only help you stay warm, it’ll also provide a style that’s aesthetically refreshing and in tune with the season. Here are some winter home décor trends worth trying out. Of course, use these as an inspiration and tweak them to fit your home’s own unique character.

Throw Pillows

Buying new throw pillows, or pillow covers, for your couch or bed is always a great way to revamp your space during winter. Simply said – the more, the merrier! If your style leans more eclectic, seek out varieties of colors, shapes and textures to give your couches and chairs more color (and comfort!). For an incredibly cozy look, and feel try crocheted or faux fur pillow covers this season.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Faux Fur Rugs

A rug is always a good idea during the winter. For this season, consider using a faux fur rug! They’re extremely soft and make your floor space much cozier to set foot on, especially if you have hardwood or laminate floors.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Warm Ambient Lighting

Ambient lighting may not exactly help you keep the space warmer, but it does set the tone and deliver a sense of calm, helping you to relax after the hustle and bustle of the holiday season. Warmer lights mimic the warmth of candles, which make them a natural fit for cold months. It’s a small detail that definitely goes a long way in setting a calm, welcoming mood in your home!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Statement Seating

Replace your traditional seating options with seating that features bold patterns/colors. After spending a lot of time cooped up in the past year, it won’t hurt to make a bold statement that adds a splash of color and positivity to your routine. Don’t be afraid to embrace patterns that some people would consider busy. A colorful but cozy statement piece can help boost your mood and add a little comfort to your space!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Blankets

Would this be a complete blog without mentioning blankets? We think not! One of the best cozy living room ideas is to keep extra blankets readily available. They’ll come in handy for curling up on the couch to watch movies, read books, or just to take a nap. When not in use, a trendy way to store these blankets is to fold them up and set them on a small wooden ladder that sits against the wall. Find blankets of varying textures — chunky-knit sweater, faux fur, quilt are just a few trendy options to mix and match for a cozy and inviting aesthetic.
