Getting Cosy Made Simple - 5 tips on how to get cosy in your home

1. Slip into comfort! Keep your slippers by the front door so you don’t have to make the trip to the bedroom for them. If you pop them on as soon as you get home, you’ll feel cosy as soon as you walk through the door! Go for the classic ‘bunny slippers’ look with these from New Look for £7: https://www.newlook.com/uk/womens/footwear/shoes/grey-fluffy-bunny-slippers/p/598907304
 
2. Light it down! Get some side lamps to subtly illuminate your living space instead of having the ‘big light’ on! Have a look at this simple, yet elegant lamp from The Range for only £42.99: https://www.therange.co.uk/lighting/table-lamps/table-lamps/olivia-mercury-glass-table-lamp/#151890
 
3. Pop in some cosy colours! Speaking of lamps and warm colours, coloured light bulbs can add a great deal of cosiness to a home. Change your bright harsh ones for some of these warm amber spotlight bulbs, which are also energy saving and are a steal at only £2.95! https://www.thelightbulb.co.uk/r80-60watt-es-e27-screw-cap-amber
 
4. Wrap up! A snuggly blanket is the staple of any cosy home. Whether you prefer fleece, woollen or woven blankets, make sure you have a few around the home so you can cosy up at a moment’s notice. Next have a fabulous selection of throws and blankets from only £12! https://www.next.co.uk/shop/department-homeware-productaffiliation-cushionsandthrows/category-throws#2_1277
 
5. Invest in some eternal flames! LED candles are perfect; they last far longer and it doesn’t matter if you forget to blow them out! Popping a few of these around and your home will feel super cosy within seconds. My living room is home to these £5.99 ones from Dunelm: https://www.dunelm.com/product/led-church-candle-8cm-x-15cm-1000129765
