Why Redcorate in Winter?
Redecorating in winter can feel like needless effort and expense, yet your surroundings powerfully shape your mood and mental health. When colder weather keeps us indoors and less active, the resulting stagnation can deepen seasonal blues. Put that extra indoor time to good use: reorganize drawers, declutter surfaces, and arrange furniture for better flow. Taking charge of your environment restores a sense of control and calm.
A quick refresh also adds novelty and comfort. Bring out thicker blankets, plush cushions, and cosy throws; place the heater where it works best; rotate in your winter wardrobe. Make your space so inviting that getting up each morning feels exciting. Invite a friend or family member to lend a hand—or simply admire the finished result.
Below are a few easy ideas to kick-start your winter restyle.
1. DON’T BE AFRAID TO BE BOLD WITH COLOUR
Don’t be afraid to go bold with your rooms walls and bring a pop of colour, a texture or a pattern that’s uniquely you.
Colour has a huge psychological and even physiological effect on the human body, altering our mood and perception, and moreover, it’s a little different for all of us. Depending on your experiences and taste, different hues elicit a slightly different reaction – maybe a happy memory assosciated with a specific blue, or a bad one assosciated with pink can alter your perception and response to those colours.
Whatever you choose, changing the colour of your walls, adding a feature wall, a piece of art or wallpaper, dramatically alters and more often than not, improves the liveliness of your space. It’s a big step and often requires some elbow grease but is well worth it in the end – we’ll have a in-depth article on colours and their impact coming up soon so stick around if you want to learn some more!
2. EXPERIMENT WITH MATERIALS AND TEXTURE
Winter is a great time to review your colour palette, and, texture palette.
Go for warmth with soft, fluffy wool based throws, linens, boucle- the world is your oyster
Texture is an entirely personal thing but don’t leave out the sense of touch in your revamp, it’s as important that your feels as nice as it looks. There’s no right or wrongs, just your personal taste -here are a few examples from our own collections.
3. STATEMENT LIGHTING
Statement lighting can vary from expensive, elaborate ceiling fixtures to cheaper but equally charming fairy lights and lamps that accent and add to the room.
Lamps are an awesome way to add an inexpensive but expressive touch to a room.
Candles, fairy-lights and lava lamps are awesome additions. Candles can add a scent, warm ambient and greater personalization. Fairy lights can adorn different places, highlight furniture pieces, mirrors and more. Lava lamps are awesome for kids rooms, making a beautiful night-lamp and a never ending fascination to watch.
4. ADD MORE TO YOUR HEADBOARD
Make your headboard into a curated library, line-up your next reads or assemble your old favourites.
Try a fabric headboard, a softer look that’s easier to lean against for those late night reading sessions.
Try mixing and matching, putting fairy lights on the headboard, experimenting with textures, vases, flowers and plants. Add a reading lamp that clamps to the top for convenience.
5. TRY A LAYERED APPROACH TO BEDDING
Try adding layering to your bedding – start with the fitted bedsheet’s, sets with matching pillow cases are a great way to form a solid base to your layering.
Next add your blankets, depending upon your preference, try linens, cottons, duvets or lighter blankets without stuffing.
Finally add your covers, whether this is on the duvet, or a bed-spread, go for a statement bedspread with a complementary throw or vice versa. Experiment with putting the textures and patterns together, and pick your colours carefully.
