It’s chilly outside and there’s nothing like curling up in bed with a steaming cup of cocoa and a good movie during the endless winter days. But you do need that warm, cozy environment! Get out of the cold and make your own cozy winter home. Here are some suggestions for making your bedroom a comfortable home.
Lighting is the key
A warm and cozy bedroom needs light, but not just any light. There’s nothing worse than a bright ceiling spotlight that burns on you when you’re snuggled in bed. In the dark, turn off the ceiling light and focus on dim light. The key to creating an intimate atmosphere is the use of different light sources. Assemble attractive pendant lights or lantern shades in clusters to create a great centerpiece. Add glowing table and floor lamps, reflective surfaces and candles to your interior to amplify the impact.

Play with color tones and earth tones
Unexpected perhaps, but an earthy, forest green has all the comforting sensations. We’re done when we combine it with rich, patterned fabrics. You can also opt for an all-white aesthetic. Add a large chunky knit throw, a hand-woven rug and a solid headboard to add a country touch. Not only is it a warm nod to the country-chic aesthetic we all know and love, but it’s just adorable in its own right.

Add Wood Accents
Whether your bedroom is small or large, incorporating wood into the walls is a great way to provide warmth. It can range from as simple as sheet cladding to as ornate as limed oak panels. If real wood isn’t an option, there are beautiful wallpapers that look like wood paneling. Choosing wooden furniture and decorations can also help create a sense of comfort in rooms where paneling or wallpaper cannot be used.

Unplug the tech world
If you’re connected to your phone or iPad, you won’t be able to disconnect the plug completely. Instead of a TV or phone dock, find a way to turn your bedroom into a low- or no-tech zone by adding novels, books, and natural elements like fresh flowers or plants. Make this a place where you can really relax. Trust us when we say the news is still there when you wake up.
