How to make your room cosy
In today’s post I am going to be showing you how to make your room cosy! My room is mostly done, got a few bits and bobs but apart from that it’s finally done! You will be getting a sneak peak in this post but I will be doing a room tour in the New Year, so stay tuned ;))

1. Lights

I love all my fairy lights in my room, they make me feel so relaxed and cosy. I have quite cool toned fairy lights but if you want to feel even cosier get warm toned ones ;)) They are also really inexpensive so perfect if you are on a budget. I have added 3 sets of fairy lights around my room and a little 3 heart light thing that I got from home bargains. You can get fairy lights almost anywhere that sells home stuff, I definitely recommend ikea ones they are so good and inexpensive.

2. Blankets

Blankets are literally my life saver, if you know me you would know I am always cold and love blankets. I feel a comfort from them and they make me feel cosy and I feel it makes your room overall cosier especially if they are really fluffy. It can also add a pop of colour to your room and to jazz it up! Blankets can be a bit overpriced but you can get one from Asda/George for under £10 which is such a bargain!

3. Cushions

This is a bit of a weird one, but I think the more cushions you have the cosier and warmer I feel. Is it just me?! Anyway I love how cosy my room is when I have loads of cushions on my bed. Again mines are quite cool colours, but if you want to feel even cosier pick warmer colours ;))

I also saw these really cute knitted cushions which would look so cute on your bed, and I’m sure it would be super warm and cosy.

4. Warm colours

In my room I don’t really have any warm colours apart from the magnolia walls, but in my living room it’s all warm colours and it’s so relaxing and you feel so cosy in it. But I would recommend having a warm coloured room in your house to simply just relax. Some warm colours are…

o   Red

o   Orange

o   Yellow

5. Fireplace                                                                                       

This isn’t widely available or inexpensive but I have a solution!

DIY Fireplace

Type up on youtube “fireplace loop” and it will come up with an 8 hour video of a fireplace with the audio.

This is so relaxing and realistic! You can hear it crackling away and for some reason I feel warmer haha! You can just leave this on your bed or desk or something and just leave it for 8 hours without doing anything!

6. Candles

Candles instantly make a room cosier, especially when they are Christmassy scented! You can also get them for like a pound and they look really nice. I love lighting them at night time and I always light one if someone comes over. They not only makes the room cosier, candles can act as a piece of décor.

I hope you enjoyed this post, something quite different. Please let me know in the comments if you want more room type blog posts. – em <3
