How to make your home warmer: tips
Outside the window, frosts and blizzards, but in the apartment I want to create my own comfortable weather. Not only fluffy blankets and blankets will help to make the house warmer, but also some interior tricks. Our consultant interior designer Julia Solovieva tells how to do it.

There are things and materials that are capable of visually warming. These are fire, fur, wood, furniture and wallpaper in warm brown or, conversely, bright summer shades. If possible, try to incorporate something into your personal space.
Of course, a fireplace will be an ideal way to save yourself from the cold weather and the February blues. The present is usually installed in summer cottages or in country houses, and in apartments it can be replaced with a bio fireplace or an electric fireplace. If this is not possible, make an interesting false fireplace and put there a gallery of candles of different heights. It is even easier to place interior lights throughout the house.
Bright accents will help create a warm atmosphere in the house. Change textiles, put on interesting pillowcases, add luscious photo frames, and your home immediately looks brighter. You can wrap familiar objects, such as flower pots, with soft covers, and spread pillows on stools and chairs.
3. Add pillows and blankets
Add fluffy pillows and cozy throws to sofas and armchairs. This is the simplest technique that requires the least cost.
The lighter the houses are, the greater the feeling of summer, so make sure your home is brighter. To do this, install additional multi-level lighting sources: floor lamps, table lamps in interesting lampshades.
Don’t forget vitamins. They are not only useful in winter as a remedy for vitamin deficiency and colds, but also become a pleasant decor for the interior. Green and red apples in transparent vases, sunny orange oranges and tangerines will be a wonderful accent, and the greenery on the windowsill will distract attention from the gray sky and dirty snowdrifts outside the window.
Psychologists are sure: only one contemplation of fire warms. But lighted candles are really capable of raising the temperature in an apartment by 1-2 degrees.
Place fur skins on the floor. Any fur adds coziness and a sense of warmth.
Place carpets on the floor, preferably with long pile. It is not only more pleasant to walk on them barefoot, but their presence really raises the temperature in the apartment. And if it is, for example, a bright green or terracotta color, the interior will immediately acquire summer notes.
As you can see, the main thing is to experiment and create the mood yourself. And then the weather in the house will always be happy.
