Holidays are a wonderful reason to make the atmosphere of your home welcoming and warm. And once the holidays pass, you can leave up many of your decorations to keep enjoying that feeling all through the cold days of winter. When decorating for winter, remember to consider the inside and outside of the house.

Let’s begin with the interior as we look at how to create a cozy home atmosphere for the holidays.

The Interior

You can avoid the winter doldrums and enjoy entertaining during the holidays when you create a lovely atmosphere. Rather than pretending it’s not cold, decorate in a way that emphasizes the need for warmth and focus on winter’s natural beauty by bringing some of it inside. Let’s look at a few ways to warm up the interior.

Greenery and Birch Wood

Place greenery around the house to bring nature inside. Natural garlands look and smell wonderful on the fireplace mantel, above cabinets, and strung along the staircase.

Throws and Pillows

In the colder months, throws and pillows aren’t only decorative—they’re useful when you feel a chill. Put away your lightweight throws from summer and opt for darker colors and soft textures. Use a storage unit to keep them all safe until you need them again, otherwise, you’ll find your home gets cluttered and that’s not very cozy and it’s not great for when guests visit either. Now is the time to drape the couch in flannel fabrics or a favorite quilt in winter shades.

Switch Out the Dishes

You may not keep the table always set, but when it’s time to throw a Thanksgiving feast, you’ll be glad you have your seasonal dishes on hand. Those extra touches relieve stress when you’re wondering if you have everything you need to host a holiday meal. Plus, meals feel cozy when you set the table with holiday dishes.

The Exterior

The exterior of your home is the first thing friends and loved ones notice as they walk up to your front door. Why not show them from the start that you want them to feel welcome? That’s what the exterior can do when you create a cozy home atmosphere for the holidays. Here are some great ideas for a warm and welcoming home exterior.

Hang a Flag

If you have a flag hanging from your porch all year round, choose the right material for your American flag if it’s outdoors in the winter. Flags add a beautiful splash of color to the front of your house and look gorgeous when the snow falls. It’s perfectly fine to hang one all year, especially during the gray winter days and when welcoming friends and family for the holidays. Just make sure you bring it in during rough storms and choose outdoor materials that will make it durable.

Hang a Wreath on the Front Door

The right wreath makes a big impact on your home’s exterior. Choose one made with evergreen or grapevine so that they last well through the fall, winter, and, of course, over the holidays.

String lights

String lights in soft white or amber give a lovely glow to the outside of your house and add instant warmth. Hang them around trees and the porch to make everyone feel welcome.

After all the decorating has been done, make sure to get a little dirty work out of the way and tend to regular maintenance like roofing and gutters as well. However, be sure to use a roofer and other qualified experts for these tasks. These updates will ensure you can stay warm and cozy all through the holidays, enjoying some much-needed quality time with friends and family.
