The winter season is perfect for curling up by the fire or snuggling beneath a blanket at home. It's also ideal for new homeowners to create seasonal décor with warm and complementary themes and components. Look below to discover six winter decorating tips and ideas for your new home.
Spice Up the Space Using Patterns and Textures
You can elegantly transform rooms by adding woven texture, velvet, wood, leather, and fuzzy findings to craft a more comforting atmosphere. A thick throw blanket can keep you nice and toasty next time you're cuddling up on the couch with a cup of hot chocolate and a page-turner. Layering rugs is a sophisticated way that adds texture and tenderness to flooring, anchoring delineated sections while warming up your freezing toes.
Complement Winter Colors With Easy-To-Swap Accents
Concentrate on darker, richer colors or frosty, cool tones when redecorating for winter to make your house ready for the season. Stick with one or two hues that will be uniform throughout your accent items. Whatever color scheme you pick, essential furniture items in neutral textiles or natural tones can simplify this practice.
Incorporate Soft Lighting
You'll need a lighting system to ward away the winter blues and keep your house feeling warm, vibrant, and cheery until spring arrives. It's essential to make the most of the natural light shining inside your home, so try to keep windows open as much as possible during the day. Candles offer a gentle glow and a sense of comfort while also being portable and brightening gloomy spaces.
Bronze Statues Bring Nature in From the Cold
Just as animals look to hibernate and nest indoors to avoid the winter chill, you can bring stunning recreations of nature into your own house in the form of bronze sculptures. These realistic and exquisitely crafted sculptures radiate warmth and provide a touch of refinement to any setting.
Deck Out Your Fireplace Setting
As the weather becomes chilly outside, you'll naturally gravitate toward your home’s fireplace, so now is the ideal time to prepare it for increased attention. Hanging a big mirror above the mantle transforms the fireplace into a centerpiece. A vintage stool offers a stylish resting spot while you tend to the fire, while candlesticks sitting on the mantel can complete the cozy view.
Remember That a Little Bit Goes a Long Way
Don't feel obligated to redecorate nearly every room in your house right away. Keep in mind that a few simple changes and centerpieces can drastically transform the ambiance of your place. Concentrate on what you can reasonably do, and don't force yourself to take large swings if you're not ready.
