When it’s cold and dark outside, it’s important for you and your family to have somewhere warm and cozy to snuggle up. Especially seeing as the weekends will probably be mostly spent indoors, rather than with trips to the park or beach, you will want somewhere warm and comfy to spend those lazy Sunday mornings.
There is no doubt that the winter weather can be a little bleak, and at times it is hard to stay motivated, but there is plenty you can do to make your home the perfect winter grotto. Therefore, what better way to pass the time on those rainy days than with a little home decoration?
Warm Colors
Turn the heat up in your bedroom with a few dashes of warm colors, like burgundy and terracotta. You don’t necessarily have to re-paint the whole room, try painting one wall behind the bed, or even just the skirting boards, to add a fun splash of warm color. “As the name indicates, warm colors tend to make you think of sunlight and heat,” says interior decorating expert Lauren Flanagan on about.com. So let the sun come into your room this winter and transform your bedroom with a bit of color.
