Home Improvement

Date: 2016-04-29
Plunging temperatures, shorter days, gloomy ambience and laziness- winter days are here. Add to that- a fireplace, warming scents of cinnamon and vanilla, your cozy throw, a steaming cup of joe and your favourite book- winter days are certainly here!

While some of us may not like the chill in the air, here are some expert decorating tips to make your home warm and comfortable this winter without breaking the bankÖ

Accessorise - If you are on a budget but your home needs a quick makeover, use accent pieces, like scatters and throws, for an instant fresh look. Rugs and Carpets are a simple way of making your home look warm on a budget.

Go grey - Why not introduce greys into your winter dÈcor It's the perfect colour for the winter season.

Pick one wall - A quick, fun and easy trick is to repaint one wall in your home with a warm, earthy shade.

Add texture - Don't be afraid to introduce varying textures. For example, you could have contrasting textures on your sofa with woven fabrics and furry throws for an instant cosy 'WOW' factor.

Glow - Lighting sets the tone, so add some candles or yellow lights to your home for a warm glow this winter
