The snow is falling and the weather is cooling down which means winter is officially upon us. With winter comes the holidays and a whole new season to decorate your house for. Whether you’re decorating your house to get ready for company or staging it to get ready to sell you can always use some new ideas. Check out some of these ideas to help you get in the winter decorating spirit!
Add outdoor greenery
More people will see the outside of your house than will the inside. Adding in some winter greenery such as evergreen or fir branches, cut greenery, interesting twigs, and some pine cones can give you the look that you were searching for.
Decorate your front door
This is one of the first things people will see when they come over or just pass by. Hang up your favorite wreath to welcome guests. If you don’t have a wreath already, get creative! There are endless options when it comes to creating a festive wreath.
Use festive blankets
With winter comes cold weather. When it’s cold outside all anyone wants to do is hang around inside and stay warm. Using blankets as decoration can not only add some fun touches around your house but also make it feel warm and cozy.
Play around with scents
Winter is a strong competitor with fall when it comes to candles and various scents. With so many to choose from the combinations are endless. Using some winter-themed candles will not only give your house a wonderful smell but also add a little decor.
Emphasize the fireplace
Fireplaces are one of the most popular spots in any room during the wintertime. Try highlighting your fireplace as a focal point of the room. Get some firewood to put next to it. Not only is it practical to have firewood handy whenever you want to spark up a fire to sit around but it also adds another level to the room.
