10 WAYS TO MAKE YOUR HOME COSY

As we say goodbye to summer, it’s time to start making your home warm and cosy in preparation for the new season. At TJ Hughes we have a whole range of soft furnishings, home accessories and electricals at up to 70% off the RRP, to ensure your home is a cosy safe haven for those who enjoy hibernating during the colder months of the year. Get ready for hot chocolate topped with marshmallows, curling up on the sofa and listening to the rain outside. Here are 10 ways to make your home cosy with a little help from TJ Hughes.

1. Keep out the cold with lined curtains

Heat can easily and quickly escape from windows and patio doors. Trap the warmth inside your home by replacing light summer curtains and blinds with lined curtains designed for the colder weather.

2. Choose a fluffy rug to keep your feet warm

There is nothing better than stretching your feet out of bed and onto a soft fluffy rug rather than cold wooden or laminate flooring. It will help to start your day as you mean to go on.

3. You can never have enough cushions

During the autumn and winter, the weather prevents a lot of us from braving the outdoors, so you’ll find yourself spending more time inside. Make your living room more comfortable with additional cushions.

4. Curl up under a soft-touch throw

There is nothing better than curling up under a soft throw and watching a movie at home, especially when the wind is howling outside.

5. Add seasonal home accessories

Transition from summer to autumn and through to winter, with home accessories in seasonal shades of ivory, brown and cream.

6. Let it sparkle with indoor string lights

Indoor string lights can dramatically change the look and feel of a room. Light up your living room, bedroom or even your staircase with delicate string lights.

7. Keep your bed warm with an electric blanket

The feeling when you jump into a warm bed is like nothing else. Warm up your bed a few minutes before bedtime with an electric blanket and drift off to sleep warm and cosy no matter how cold it is outside.

8. Upgrade your bedroom with seasonal bedding

Embrace autumn and winter with seasonal bedding. Choose from brushed cotton sheets for additional warmth to luxury duvet sets and bedspreads in soft shades of grey.

9. Light a candle and create an atmosphere

A scented candle can bring to mind fond memories of the festive season and really get you in the mood to be cosy, merry and warm. Pick something musky for autumn such as Black Pepper and Ginseng.

10. Pop the kettle on and give yourself a warm hug on the inside

Last but not least, a mug of hot chocolate topped with cream and marshmallows is the perfect and most delicious way to salute the new season and feel warm and fuzzy inside, so pop the kettle on.
