Winter is coming! Winters call for a warm, snug, and cosy bedroom. Being comfortable and warm in your bedroom, cuddled up with a cup of hot chocolate and watching Netflix, seems to be the ultimate luxury when it’s chilly outside. While hot weather calls for a laid-back, open, and airy vibe in the bedroom, winters rather call for a very comfy, cosy, and snug bedroom.
As the temperatures are dropping, the days are shorter and the nights are longer. The sun is warm during the day, and the evening cool breeze makes you enjoy a fire at night. So, it becomes essential to make your bedroom the cosiest place in your home. Here are 5 must-haves to make your bedroom winter-proof, cosy, and warm.
1. RUGS
Be it plush rugs, shaggy rugs, or vintage rugs, layer rugs in your bedroom to make it cosy and warm and to prevent your feet from touching the cold floor. Whether your bedroom is covered in hardwood or carpet, rugs are ideal to add texture, warmth, and colour. Layering rugs in different patterns and shapes can create an extra-comfy look and add a
cosy effect.
2. THROWS
Experts say that a relatively cool bedroom can improve sleep, so warm bedding is important for staying cosy all night. To add warmth on winter nights while you are relaxing, watching TV or perhaps reading a book, opt for a small throw that can be positioned over your cold feet. Also, in the daytime, this throw can be used as a
decorative addition to your room decor.
3. MORE PILLOWS
What’s cosier than a huge pile of fluffy pillows on your bed? Layer your bed with lots of throw pillows to make the comfiest bed possible. The more the pillows, the better it is, to create a super-comfy bed. There is no right number for adding pillows, just match the right amount of comfort and style to make your bed more welcoming.
4. FAUX FUR
Faux fur is the popular trend in winters as it can be perfect as a throw, rug, pillow or even as a bed comforter because it adds a fuzzy and warm feel to your bedroom. Using faux fur can turn your bedroom into a winter sanctuary you will never want to leave. Faux fur can also add a soft texture and comfort besides bringing in touches of colour and personal style.
5. DIM LIGHTS AND CANDLES
You’ll be surprised how much switching lightbulbs or adding an extra lamp can alter the mood of your bedroom. Soft lighting choices can enhance your bedroom space for winter. Switch to yellow or dimmer lighting for your bedroom this winter for that spa-like environment. You can also add candles that can be an ultimate item for spreading the vibe of staying comfy and relaxing.
From rugs to plush pillows to the soft lighting, your winter bedroom can exemplify a cozy living. If you have any other alternatives to these 5 must-haves for your winter bedroom, do share them in the comments below!
