To truly relish the indoors, it’s important to create a place that feels inviting. The good news is that it doesn’t need to be expensive or time-consuming to have a cozy fall home. With just a few simple tips, you can make each room of your Merced house feel comfortable and inviting.

Cozy Décor

One of the ideal areas to start when creating a cozy fall home is with your décor. Simple changes can make a great impact. Choosing the right fabric can bring a sense of warmth and comfort to any living room or bedroom. For maximum coziness, try adding a faux fur throw, some plush throw pillows, and soft layered linens to your bed or couch. One other great place to add a touch of extra comfort is the floor. If you’ve been using low-pile rugs on your floors, consider switching to something a bit plusher. Soft, fluffy rugs can bring an extra layer of coziness to your feet and to your home, too.

Add Warmth with Light

As the days grow shorter, it signifies that you need to start adding some warmth to your home with lighting. By adding a few different light sources of the right kind, you can make your home feel snug and cozy. Candlelight is an excellent option for setting a mood. But open flames can be dangerous. Rather, opt for LED pillar candles, which give off a warm light without the fire hazard. Another great way to soften the lighting and make a cozy fall home is to switch to light bulbs in warmer shades of white. White light bulbs come in a range of shades, from bright arctic white to almost yellow. By changing to a warmer shade, you can make your home feel warmer every time you turn on the lights.

Get Cozy with Color

One more easy way to make your Merced home feel cozier is to switch up your color palette. In deep, rich shades from red to brown, autumn colors can invite a sense of warmth to couch covers, tablecloths, and bed coverings. Another excellent place to add a cozy feel is your windows and walls. For curtains, choose something in a warm shade to add depth to your rooms. Walls can also lend warmth and color by hanging some of your favorite photos or works of art in creative ways. Wood tones in frames and furniture will likewise add their bit to the comfortable look and feel of a room.

Invite Life In

More often than not, you can make your home feel cozier by doing things that bring you a sense of pleasure and joy. Baking some of your favorite treats can add delicious smells and a comfortable feel to a warm kitchen. Brewing some hot drinks or playing board games at the table are other great techniques to create a cozy autumn home.
