When the seasons change, creating a new design can be a lot of work. Instead, we're here to suggest a few small ways to infuse your room with the best parts of the little details that really matter when you're feeling a little chilly.
Summer bedding is light and cool. But when the chilly temperatures roll in, putting an extra pillow at the end of the bed is one way to add warmth.
Want to really boost your bedroom's comfort level? Then grab a faux-fur blanket or a heavy knit.
Reading chair behind the sofa, or even a second soft rug on the floor on top of your master rug.
A cozy spot is a bedroom corner near a window with a view of the afternoon sun.
Cover the chairs with lush fabrics like linens and chenille for extra softness as well as visual appeal.
When it comes to creating cozy little spaces in your home, prioritize lighting.
Adding more task lighting in the form of table lamps rather than relying on harsh overhead lights is a good place to start.
Don't forget about window treatments.
Filter the sunlight in bedrooms and offices with soft curtains that feel warm and inviting.
Finally, hanging curtains over windows filters and warms the light that flows through.
When fall rolls around, swapping out bright summer florals and stripes for softer tones and textures (think velvet, corduroy and tweed) is already top of mind.
But when you change your accessories, design experts urge homeowners to increase the number of pillows and cushions, even to the brink of overload.
The reason? Here, more is more when it comes to softness, whether your pillows are piled on the bed, in the corner of a book, or on the sweet window seat where you drink your tea.
