Luckily, you don't have to spend a fortune to ramp up the comfort in your living room. With just a few simple, yet elegant touches, your living room will be the envy of all your friends and family – especially on those cold, winter nights! Read on for 6 living room must-haves for extra coziness this
winter.
Your memories on display
There's nothing that says comfort and wellbeing other than photos of all your favorite moments and your loved ones beaming back at you. Displaying family images on a photo canvas will add depth and warmth to your room without you even touching the thermostat. From vibrant colors that capture the mood of your favorite photos effortlessly, or something more muted to complement your living room décor, displaying your cherished moments is a simple way to make your living room feel warmer and cozier this winter.
A thick, super soft rug
Whether the kids are playing with their toys, or you're gathering around to watch a family film,
guests and family members alike will love sitting on a thick, super soft rug! This warm and cozy
flooring addition will not only transform any living space, but it can also help to insulate your floor and prevent some of the heat from escaping!
Throws and blankets
Having a selection of throws and blankets ready, so you can quickly tuck yourself up on the sofa with a good book or with your loved ones is essential. You can never have too many throws or blankets – the chunkier the better!
Remember – don't forget a cute blanket box or storage basket to store them all in!
Candles and lights
Lighting doesn't just stop you from stumbling in the dark, it also sets the mood and can help you create an incredibly cozy atmosphere with minimal effort. Carefully placed candles (or LED versions if you don't want naked flames) or some elegantly strung fairy lights will make any living room a little
more magical and comfortable for everyone.
Thick, heavy curtains
Do your window dressings leave a lot to be desired? Thin, poor-quality curtains, blinds, and shades
are much better suited to the summer months and don't really promote the warm and cozy atmosphere you're trying to achieve. Swap your current window dressings for some luxuriously thick, fully lined, and heavy curtains. Not only will they turn your living space into a sanctuary by shutting off the world outside, but you'll lose less heat through your windows and make your home much warmer in the process.
And finally, bean bags and throw cushions
Again, you can never have too many of these. Rather than letting the kids argue over who sits on the sofa, treat them to a cozy bean bag or floor cushions instead. To make it add a pop of color and interesting textures to your living space, consider fun and colorful upholstery fabrics for your throw cushions and bean bags. Not only do these improve comfort but they also improve the interior design of the room itself.
