Add Some Cozy Pillows And Throw Blankets
One of the best ways to inspire the warmth of the season is to have cozy blankets and pillows available for use. These can also be used as decorative pieces if you drape them over your sofas or chairs.
Soft blankets, quilts, and big pillows invite you to snuggle in your chair or sofa while you read or watch a movie. Choose colors that compliment your decor.
If you knit or crochet, one idea would be to create a one-of-a-kind blanket. Perhaps you have a quilt that’s been handed down in your family that you can drape on the furniture. What’s cozier than that?
Create Beautiful Fall Centerpieces
Another great way to make your home cozy for fall is to add some beautiful fall centerpieces to your home. You can purchase centerpieces online but if you are looking to get a little crafty, a DIY fall centerpiece will brighten up any home.
Warm It Up
If you have a fireplace, make sure it’s in perfect working order for the fall and winter. If it needs to be cleaned, take care of that before you light your first fire. This will help make sure it is safe will work like it is supposed to.
Make sure your heating system is in good working order, too. If you don’t have a fireplace, but like the look of one, consider investing in a faux fireplace. While it won’t give out any heat, it will give the ambiance of warmth. Plus, you’ll enjoy snuggling up in your favorite blanket in front of it.
If you are looking for a fireplace to heat your home, a freestanding electric fireplace will provide heat and help give you a cozy home for fall.
Lighting And Scents
Another way to make your home cozy is by bringing a bit of warm and cozy light into your home. A great way to do this is by using candles. If using real candles is a concern, there are now realistic flameless candles that flicker just like the real thing without the danger.
Place the candles on your mantel and tables to help create an inviting atmosphere. Use fall scents, either from burning scented candles or diffusing essentials oils.
Orange, pumpkin, clove, and apple are delicious scents that are perfect for fall. If you love the scents of nature, try pine, fir, or eucalyptus.
Cozy Up and Grab A Great Book
Enjoy a good book while you’re relaxing inside in front of your warm fireplace.
Get all tucked in nice and cozy with your soft blanket and enjoy the comforting fall scents. Grab that book you’ve been meaning to read and let yourself get lost in the story.
Don’t forget to make your favorite apple cider or pumpkin cookies to bring in a delicious scent into your home. These will make great snacks to enjoy while reading. Of course, apple desserts and recipes are always a great idea too. They will fill your home with the aroma of fall apples.
Cuddled up with a blanket, good book, and delicious coffee cake or latte is my idea of a great time!
