At Chimes, we understand that Christmas is an important period, with many decorations going up. But what about the rest of the winter season? In this article, we will give you tips on making your home more cosy without the need for mistletoe. You can choose a neutral colour palette that will do wonders for a relaxing living space on your property. As a result, you will get a brighter space. Read on to find out more.

Take Away Anything that Resembles Christmas 

Simple, but effective. Remove anything that reminds you or screams Christmas, because it separates winter from the festivities. This includes Christmas lights, Christmas Cards, and of course the Christmas Tree.

 

Red is a colour that is commonly associated with Christmas, so it is best to get rid of any deep colours or hues. Replace them with white or a lighter palette.

Use Some Fresh Lavender and Rosemary 

If you want to change the scent of your home, add some lavender and rosemary for a natural feel. The sight and smell will deliver a calming natural feel to your property. 

 

To maintain the lavender’s fresh scent, get some special spray to update baskets and vases. This will ensure the scent is preserved for long periods.

De Clutter Your Space 

With Christmas decorations aplenty and presents under the tree, you can be forgiven for thinking that your space is full, especially if you have a family with children. However, one of the ways you can sort your house is to declutter it completely. Have a look at your home to see what you no longer need and throw it away. It will do wonders for your mental health.

 

At Chimes, our furniture is easy to move around. Take your living room into winter and place the furniture and coffee table in a different spot. It will turn heads and add something unique to your room.

 

 

Create A Winter Atmosphere by adding natural greenery

 

Another way that you can add a winter feel to your home is by bringing natural elements to your coffee table. Greenery adds a splash of nature to your home, resulting in a calm and wintery feel on your property. 

 

Consider natural elements that ensure a welcoming atmosphere to your home. This includes pine cones and small potted trees. Furthermore, you can add a pine scented candle to pair up with the natural smells. A candle will add the natural elements needed in your home, resulting in a warm and comfortable feel. 

 

The best colour to add as a backdrop is a neutral white colour, as it works well with the seasonal green hues. 

 

 

Add Extra Lighting For Natural Warmth 

 

Choose extra lighting if you want to add extra warmth. There are a bunch of ways to do this, such as dim lights and floor lamps with a dimmer switch. As a result, you will be able to control the amount of light in your home, saving money on energy bills. What's more, a warmer switch will reduce the need to use your air conditioning over time. 

 

Inundating your home with a range of natural candles will ensure you will make the most of the post Christmas natural beauty. Although a simple step, this design will enhance the look of your home. 

 

With Christmas lights offer an instant impact in your home, on the other hand, twinkle lights will add a neutral appearance that creates a calmer atmosphere. To do this, fill a vase with LED lights, increasing the ambience further. 

 

Utilise Soft Cushions And Throws

 

Create a relaxing and ambient home when you choose soft and luxurious cushions. With the winter nights getting darker, it is essential that you keep warm over time. A fluffy white blanket will have you cocooned during the winter.  Upgrading your cushions will keep you toasty and warm for years to come. If you choose a colour that matches your walls, it creates a seamless connection to your property.
