Decorating your home for cozy season is about more than just making it look warm and welcoming—it’s about how your space makes you feel. That’s especially true in the colder months, when winter essentials like throw pillows, scented candles, and cozy blankets can transform a house into a haven. And the best part about seasonal decorating is that a few simple swaps truly can make all the difference. Try trading in your lightweight summer bedding for flannel sheets, keeping a basket of throw blankets by the couch, or lighting candles that fill the room with a soft glow and comforting scent.

Even small updates like a textured rug or faux fur throw can completely change the look and feel of your space. And when the weather outside is frightful, it’s even more important to make your inside space feel delightful. Whether you’re looking for ways to make your home cozy for quiet nights in or simply want to add a few winter-ready touches, these 12 cozy home ideas are exactly what you need to embrace homebody season.

01

This winter, swap your lighter summer drapes for this worn velvet set to instantly make your living room feel warmer and more intimate. Deep jewel tones like golden oak and regal blue look especially cozy during the colder months.

02

7-Point Star Paper Lantern

Urban Outfitters

$14.00

Nothing sets a dreamy winter mood like a glowing paper star. Hang a few of these lanterns above a reading nook, in your front window, or by on either side of your entryway table to add soft light and a little magic to those long, dark winter nights. Bonus: The floral-inspired cutouts cast the prettiest shadows!

03

04

Celeste Organic Cotton Taupe Desert Floral Block Print Quilt

Crate & Barrel

$279.95

In the fall and winter months, a quilt is a great addition to your regular bedding for an added layer of warmth. This 100% cotton quilt features desert-inspired vintage florals in a warm taupe and olive colorway. Layer it with cream flannel sheets or a chunky chestnut knit throw to make your bedroom extra cozy on cold nights.

Pottery Barn

$69.50

Layer in some throw pillows or change out your regular throw pillow covers with comfy winter textures and colors, like this tobacco-colored teddy pillow cover. It comes in two square sizes—20 and 24 inches—so you can mix up your look, too.

06

Dawnwake Mushroom Table Lamp

Amazon

$39.99

Lighting is key to a cozy atmosphere. Instead of using overhead lights, incorporate table lamps or portable lamps throughout your space. They create a softer, more relaxing ambience. Place this one on a nightstand, side table, or even a bookshelf to bring a little light to spots that tend to feel dark in the winter.

07

Alpine Luxe Faux Fur Throw

Pottery Barn

$169.00

We all know a faux fur blanket is a must-have home accessory in the winter months. Not only is it a fabulous piece of decor you can throw over the couch or the edge of your bed to layer in some different texture, but it’s also a favorite for snuggling up with.

08

mise en place Gourmand Cinnamon Swirl Tin Candle

Anthropologie

$22.00

Lighting a cozy candle while you wrap up in a fluffy blanket watching your favorite TV shows—is there anything better? This gourmand-scented candle has notes of warm cinnamon, caramel, vanilla, and brown sugar, baked together to make your home smell like freshly baked cookies whenever the moment calls. Set one on a coffee table or nightstand to fill the room with a warm glow.

09

Mandy’s Artificial Silk Flowers

Amazon

$19.99

Florals always make a space feel warm and welcoming. If you don’t feel like maintaining real flowers or plants, opt for faux stems in a few vases to bring the outdoors in.

10

BodyRestore Shower Steamers

Amazon

$29.99

Creating a cozy home isn’t just about the decor—it’s about setting the vibe, too. These steamers turn that warm shower into a spa, which is exactly what you’ll need after shoveling snow off the driveway. Drop one in the shower to transform your nightly routine into a spa-worthy escape after a cold day outside.

11

Espresso Coconut Stripe Luxe Bath Towel Set

Cozy Earth

$208.00

And what feels cozier than getting out of the shower and wrapping up in a plush bath towel? This luxe espresso and coconut striped set from Cozy Earth comes with two bath towels, two hand towels, and four washcloths, but you can buy them individually instead, if that’s more your style. Stack them on an open shelf or in a basket so they double as decor.

12
