Now that the holiday season is over and the Christmas decor is all packed away, our homes at this point might seem a little bare. The warmth and glow that the holiday decor provided is now gone but don't despair there is a remedy to fix all of that.
Lighting
One of the easiest ways to make your home feel cozier after the holiday season is to add lighting. Whether it is candles, floor lamps, or string lights, lighting is essential and the key to that cozy warm feeling that you crave.
Draperies
Changing out lightweight draperies and replacing them with heavier/darker ones will instantly give a warm feel to any room of your home.
Rugs/Pillows
Add area rugs (layer more than one) to your space especially if you have hardwood floors to add texture and to keep your feet toasty and warm. Another great way to add coziness to your abode is by adding toss pillows, throws on sofas and extra blankets on bedding.
Art
Artwork might not be the first thing you think of regarding coziness but using artwork/paintings does add an element of coziness to otherwise drab white walls. They tend to bring the whole room together and provides the feeling of warmth to your space. Try it out you won't be disappointed. Lastly, hang personal photos on your walls (gallery wall) which will invoke that "feeling" of familiarity and warmth. See photos below:

fireplace, and textured pillows

components used for this cozy space
