Make the house more welcoming

Our advice

Winter is the season in which everyone feels the need to make the house more welcoming.
You know, in the coldest months, the house becomes a real refuge, especially if you live in particularly cold areas. For this reason, it is essential that this is really adherent to our needs. But how can we achieve this? Simple, by following our advice that we will soon discover together.
Although each of us has our own personal taste, both in terms of furniture but also in terms of environment in which to live, there are golden rules that will upset your home, making it really welcoming. So, if you’re ready and not waiting for anything else… we can start our mini guide today!

The costs

Before we start our column, let us debunk a myth. The one about the need to spend a fortune to be able to change your home. Especially if they are purely aesthetic (as in this case) and not structural changes, it will be enough to make small adjustments. It is up to the ability of those who try their hand at these works, to opt for winning and economic choices. And that is precisely what we are going to focus on today. Big changes with a limited budget!

Rope lights

Light is the very first element to consider when we want to make our home welcoming. Which to choose ? The answer will surprise you. We therefore advise you to choose the so-called ”luminous series” or rope lights. They may seem a bit retro, but you will be assured of the effect. You can make the most of them and, above all, there are no limitations of any kind. At any time you can decide to change them and place them elsewhere. In addition, the convenience of the light series is twofold. Not only do they enrich a room by illuminating it, but they also allow you to “cover” more points which, at first glance, may not be aesthetically pleasing.
So go to light series on the back of the bed, on the sofa or even on the shelves. If you want an even more retro effect, we advise you to place them near the window. In the evening the show will be wonderful.

Chunky Knit

Winter is synonymous with cold and the desire to sleep on the sofa, right? For do-it-yourself lovers, we have a really useful and effective advice. The Chunky Knit! What are we talking about? The Chunky Knit is a large carpet or blanket made entirely of knitted. The peculiarity? The threads are extremely large, as the result. Once you have bought the necessary wool, you just need to knit it just like when you knit a scarf. The result will be warm and soft. Whether you want to use it as a rug, blanket or simple furnishing accessory, we have no doubt. The Chunky Knit is a must have of the winter season!

Tassels at the door

An oriental touch never hurts, even if it is minimal. And this touch is really special but winning. Already in fashion in 2019, this year the tassels are back on the doorstep. And that’s not all. To make your home more welcoming and colorful, we recommend finishing the cushions and door rings with these colorful tassels. It doesn’t look like it, but adorning them with these elements will make your house more intimate and welcoming.

So what advice will you give to make your house more welcoming in the middle of winter?
