10 Ways to Add Coziness to Your Home

Modern aesthetics can be nice, but no one wants to be invited to a cold, hard home in the dead of winter. They want warmth, comfort and friendliness exuding from the house’s every pore. Here’s how to accomplish that.

1. Cozy textiles
Rough and uncomfortable materials that are scratchy obviously don’t invite comfort. Invoke feelings of happiness with comfortable, soft textures like faux fur, knit, sheepskin and shag.

2. Fire it up
Even If you don’t have a chimney, you can add hygge to your home with an electric fireplace which is easy to install and maintain. Worse comes to worse, throw on that virtual fireplace channel.

3. Create lighting ambiance
Dimming the lights create a warm mood, but cool lights evoke stress and fluorescent office lights. Swap cool bulbs for warm ones and integrate candles.

4. Don’t forget the outside
If you have a front porch or terrace, make it comfy with warming candles, cozy blankets, weatherproof seating options, and other snuggly essentials stored in a wicker basket.
