Winter comes with snowfall and chilly breezes, and we want to keep ourselves warm and cozy throughout the season. Adding warmth, comfort and style to our personal space becomes a priority, and most importantly, an interesting activity for us. Seasonal decoration is all about adding items that accentuate the season and sometimes revamping the entire interior of our homes. Similarly, in winter we would love to add flower pots, showpieces, candles, rugs, quilts and much more to our space. The most important thing for any home décor is the color theme or color palette because it helps to filter items required for decoration or altering the interior. 

Talking about the color theme of homes in winter, the charm and elegance exuded by white are impossible to ignore. White color theme is common and widely seen in homes in the winter season. Although there is other color themes for winter home décor such as light blue and light grey, but we will go ahead with sharing interior décor ideas according to the white color theme as it is the most popular and blends completely with the winter season. Therefore, considering white as the color theme of our home, we will share the best winter home décor ideas with you in this blog, so follow us till the end. 

Décor Items to Add in Our Homes That Blend With the Winter Season

Following are decoration pieces and interior décor items that are necessary for winter home décor ideas. Before we move on, remember that we are discussing winter home décor, not Christmas décor ideas here. We will be sharing winter home décor ideas after Christmas, which is from January to April. These décor ideas will blend slightly with the spring season and this concept is new to many people, but we can assure you that it's worth trying out. 

Candles

Candles can light up any space and add a touch of romance, warmth, and coziness to our space. There are various ways to decorate your home with candles and several spots to place them. I would suggest you place candles above the fire mantle or at the center of the lounge/coffee table of your living and drawing room. You can place the candles with a candle holder as well. If you wish to cherish the moments spent with your spouse or loved ones, you can also place them at your dining table or bedside table in the bedroom and a scented one will uplift the aroma of your space.  

Cushions and Pillows

Cushions and pillows seem comforting and warm when we feel cold and want to cuddle into our bed or couch. As mentioned earlier the color theme of the home should be white in winter. Therefore, you can add a white, grey, or any neutral color couch and add soft and large-sized cushions. I like the pom pom cushions and pillows with texture and 3D designs. The cushion should either match or contrast with the color of the couch/sofa in your living room. The same goes for cushions or pillows in your bedroom. 

Flower Pots and Vases

Any home decoration is incomplete without flower pots and porcelain vases. Flowers add color and beauty to any space. Dining, center, and bedside tables covered with a flower pot or a plant pot will elevate the aesthetic and add a radiant touch to your home. Since winter is a dry season and the color theme of your house is white, so to avoid the dullness of white, you can go ahead with colorful flowers and green plants. Moreover, you can also add a porcelain vase to add a vintage and artistic touch to your home. Porcelain vases should be placed above a fire mantel and at the corner and bedside tables of your drawing room and bedroom, respectively. A winter home decor needs decoration pieces to not only fill space but uplift the overall appeal of the spot. Hence the charm of flowers and vases comes into play. 

Lighting

Add lighting to every room of your house to illuminate the space. There are different types and designs of ceiling lights and wall lamps that you can add to your winter home décor. You can add a low ceiling light with a black color body in the living room to contrast with the white color theme of your house. Moreover, you can add hanging lights of white color to your ceiling. If you wish to add sophistication to your winter home décor, then add the latest ceiling lights which look exactly like a chandelier, in your drawing room or lounge. Wall lamps are appropriate for bedrooms and you can add one according to your preference.  

Pine Cone Trays

Anything that comes after the white color theme in the winter home decor league is none other than pine cones. The internet and social media are filled with pictures of pine cone decorations. There are numerous ways to decorate your home with pine cones, but the most common way is to place pine cones in trays and put them in the centre of your living or drawing room table. You can also keep pine cones in transparent glass jars and place them above the fire mantel. Placing pine cones on the dining table will add a nature’s touch and greenery to the spot. 

Rugs and Carpets

Rugs and carpets are essential items for winter home décor to keep the space warm and fill the floors with colors and textures. You can either opt for a fully carpeted home, or you can add rugs in the center of your living room, drawing room, and bedroom. Remember to choose a carpet or rug that complements or uplifts against the white color. I would suggest you add a dark blue, red or brown rug to your space. Moreover, if you have a round-shaped center table in your living room, then place round-shaped rugs with chequered designs on them. on the contrary, if you have a habit of sitting on the floor or your kids play with toys on the floor, you can place a plush carpet on the area as it will add extra warmth and add to your comfort. 

Eucalyptus Garlands

You can place them on your window frames, door frames, above the fire mantel, and at the railings of your staircase. They add a harmonious and welcoming look to your home and will catch any guest’s or newcomer’s attention. Moreover, garlands will add greenery and color to the white aesthetic of your home. 

Knitted Stools

Knitted stools provide a comfy and homely feel to any space they are added to. Knitted stools look cultural and vintage and make any reading or sitting corner blend with the knitted stuff such as sweaters and mufflers we use in winter. Knitted stools come in various shapes, designs, and colors, and can be placed in any spot that needs to be filled such as your lounge or bedroom. Knitted stools occupy less space and look minimalistic and traditional. This is another widely used interior décor item in winter and should be kept by every individual who wishes to comply with the winter home décor trend.
