How To Make Cosiness Start At Home This Christmas

How To Make Cosiness Start At Home This Christmas

All this cold weather that we’ve experienced recently makes us pine for the warmth of home, and with Christmas just around the corner, it’ll be in your living space that you spend much of your time.

Have you got it looking and feeling festive yet? If you have, it should be nice and cosy so that when you get into your best festive pyjamas or onesie at night, you enjoy the utmost comfort.

Gain extra cosiness at home with our holiest, jolliest decorating ideas:

A fabulous festive makeover for the fireplace

The bulk of your decorating day is largely taken up with dressing up your Christmas tree as it’s a big focal point for the festivities, but why not dress up your fireplace more too?

Wreaths are used on front doors a lot, but how about doing something different and having a wreath hang above your fireplace? It’s a growing trend.

The mantel of the fire should also have a gorgeous garland covering it and hanging down, onto which you could add a Christmas message in lights of ‘Ho-Ho-Ho’ or ‘Happy Holidays’.

Fill empty jars and bottles with fairy lights

The excitement of Christmas is enough to make you eat and drink a bit more than normal and if it leads to lots of empty jars and bottles in the house, they could make for great lights.

Stuffing some fairy lights inside a glass jar is easy enough, with the drilling of a hole in the base of a wine bottle how to feed through these lights, coloured in white or red.

Place the jars and bottles all around the house to create a beautiful warm glow when night falls.

Create photo displays of old seasonal snaps

Christmas is the favourite time of year for lots of people because they have so many special memories of festive times as a child.

Dig out any old photographs that you have from past Christmases and see if they can be transformed into decorative mementoes, such as snow globes, personalised baubles etc. You could also make a piece of artwork using polaroids for putting on the wall or hanging on the tree.

Such treasured moments can never fail to raise a smile and make you feel all cosy inside.
