Simple Ways to Cozy-Up Any Room In Your Home

Sit back and relax, but first, make your space cozy. No matter your style, budget or the room in question, we have the best designer-approved tips and tricks (warm paint colors, woodsy furnishings, fuzzy stuff and more). Ahead: comfy, home-y, happy home ideas.

We feel right at home stepping into HGTV host Chip Wade's woodsy entry — log walls and all. If you don't want to go total cabin-cool, try incorporating warm wood furnishings into your entry. Here, a dark wood console shelters a pair of comfy ottomans while displaying cozy accessories (books, plants and a super-cute mini globe).

Make sure you pick a pattern you love. The Pink Clutch Blog author Paige Minear chose a Rifle Paper Co. print featuring warm tones and pretty florals. Her secret to cozy: "Mixing patterns is my thing, so I paired my wallpaper with leafy and flamingo prints," she says. FYI, if you don't want to splurge on real wallpaper, peel-and-stick is easier to install and budget-friendly.

“An enormous mirror can help a small area feel larger and a dark space appear lighter,” says blogger Sabrina Tan of Gypsy Tan, who hung a brass-framed one from CB2 in her entry. For extra texture, pair your mirror with a tasseled throw draped over a wicker basket or a colorful rug.
