With the chilly weather on its way, now is the time to start thinking about how to make your home feel warm and welcoming. One way to do this is to use some of the same decorating supplies that hotels use to give their guests a cozy experience.
There are a variety of different resources available to help you learn about design, art, decorations and finding deals. To help you out, make sure to access Hirefellas to browse the resources.
Here are a few ideas to get you started:
Use plush throws and blankets.
Hotels often have these draped over the back of chairs or at the foot of the bed. They not only look cozy, but they invite guests to snuggle up and relax. You can find these at most home stores or online.
Add some greenery.
Hotels often have potted plants in their lobby or common areas. Not only do they add a splash of color, but they also help to purify the air. If you don’t have a green thumb, choose silk plants that require no maintenance.
Use scented candles.
Scented candles are a great way to make any room feel more inviting. Choose a scent that makes you feel cozy and relaxed. Citrus or vanilla scents are often used in hotel rooms because they are pleasant and not overpowering.
Play some soft music.
Nothing says “relax” like soft, background music. Whether you choose classical, jazz, or even easy listening, having music playing in the background will help you to feel more at ease.
Make sure your guest room is well-lit.
Hotels typically use softer lighting in their guest rooms to create a more relaxing atmosphere. You can do the same in your home by using lamps instead of overhead lights.
By using some of these hotel-inspired decorating tips, you can turn your home into a cozy retreat that you’ll never want to leave.
