hi I'm Lindsay Diane from Diane
0:04
decor.com today let's talk about how to
0:07
make your home feel cozy on a budget
0:08
there are a lot of simple things that
0:10
you can do in your home to make it feel
0:13
warm and cozy without spending a dime
0:15
the first thing that you'll want to do
0:17
to make your home feel cozy is to tidy
0:19
and declutter your surfaces there's no
0:22
cozy feeling if you have piles of mail
0:24
stacks of kids artwork or a mountain of
0:28
shoes piled by the door it's just that
0:31
visual clutter that prevents us from
0:33
really relaxing it kind of is a constant
0:35
reminder of things that need to be done
0:37
around the home so if you can tidy away
0:39
your surfaces and really remove that
0:42
visual clutter you'll start to feel cozy
0:45
in your home the next thing that you'll
0:47
want to do is think about your feet your
0:50
floors and your rugs feeling warm and
0:53
cozy underfoot while you walk around
0:55
your home is really important nobody
0:57
wants to step on crumbs with their bare
0:59
feet or feel that cold tile in the
1:03
winter months underfoot it's really
1:05
uncomfortable and so consider when you
1:08
want to make your home cozy what you can
1:10
do to layer in some soft textures now
1:14
this may be
1:16
as simple as memory foam kitchen Runners
1:19
those are really nice to feel when
1:22
you're on your feet in the kitchen for
1:23
hours and hours on end especially during
1:25
the holiday season it can make you feel
1:28
warm and cozy in your kitchen even
1:30
though you're tired and you've been
1:32
standing for five or six hours the other
1:34
thing is just an area rug in your common
1:38
spaces so your living room or your
1:40
family room or even your bedroom area
1:43
rugs make a great focal point and anchor
1:46
your space so when you have a nice soft
1:49
area rug that helps keep your feet warm
1:52
and cozy and you pull your furniture
1:54
around it and to find that space you get
1:57
that nice enclosed kind of hugged
1:59
feeling that may makes your home feel
2:01
cozy lighting is another important part
2:04
of making your home feel cozy ideally
2:07
you should have lighting at multiple
2:09
levels in your home so you may have your
2:12
overhead lights but then you'll also
2:14
have a table lamp or possibly under the
2:17
cabinet lighting you may have some
2:19
picture lights or spotlights behind
2:21
Decor objects this type of supplemental
2:24
lighting really helps set the mood and
2:27
so when you want to feel warm and cozy
2:28
especially in the evenings you can turn
2:31
off your harsh overhead lights just have
2:34
your supplemental lights coming from
2:35
like eye level and below and it creates
2:39
a really warm inviting atmosphere in
2:42
your home bedding pillows and throw
2:44
blankets are the perfect way to infuse
2:47
that cozy feeling into your bedroom as
2:50
far as throws are concerned think about
2:52
chenille
2:54
faux fur or Sherpa blankets those are
2:58
nice
2:59
soft thick plush blankets that make you
3:02
feel cozy when it comes to your
3:06
comforters think about the down
3:08
alternative comforters you can go down
3:10
or you can go down alternative
3:11
personally I think the down alternative
3:13
is a better option because you don't
3:16
have the risk of catching those little
3:18
feather the stems of the feathers from
3:21
real down filling that's really
3:23
uncomfortable if you've ever been
3:24
scratched by one of those so just
3:27
consider the types of materials that
3:29
you're using on your bed and layer in
3:31
some nice soft textures to give you that
3:34
warm cozy feeling in your bedroom adding
3:36
Greenery to your space is a great way to
3:39
get that relaxing feeling of nature in
3:41
your home and create that nice cozy
3:45
feeling that you get when you're outside
3:47
and the sun is shining and the breeze is
3:50
blowing and all you hear are birds
3:52
chirping try to mimic that feeling by
3:55
getting some Greenery into your home it
3:57
can be potted plants on a console table
4:00
or a desk or you get a faux tree and put
4:03
it in a pot in the corner of your room
4:06
either way being able to see that green
4:09
is a way to access that cozy relaxing
4:13
feeling that we get when we're in nature
4:15
much like adding The Greenery to your
4:17
home incorporating other natural
4:19
materials like wood stone or wool via
4:23
Decor is a great way to add that cozy
4:27
warm feeling into your house so think
4:30
about things like woven baskets or
4:33
decorative wood bowls whether they're
4:36
like dough bowls or other pedestal fruit
4:40
bowls things like that are really really
4:43
accessible nowadays because the natural
4:45
textures are in you can find them just
4:48
about anywhere and it really helps bring
4:51
in those warm tones and natural textures
4:54
into your home that's going to give you
4:56
that warm cozy feeling another way to
4:59
get a cozy feeling in your home is to
5:01
create a little reading Nook or a
5:02
sitting area now we might not all be
5:05
able to do this but it is nice just to
5:08
have a little chair and a side table and
5:11
a corner with maybe a faux tree behind
5:13
you it's incredibly cozy to just tuck
5:16
away whether you like to read whether
5:19
you like to watch YouTube videos or just
5:21
drink your morning coffee in a little
5:24
enclosed space that's set off from
5:26
everything else
5:27
it's a really cozy feeling so if you
5:30
have the ability to do it and you have
5:32
the space give it a try it may create
5:34
the perfect cozy zone for you candles
5:37
are another easy way to add some warmth
5:40
into your home I personally love the
5:42
flameless candles I don't have to worry
5:44
about forgetting about leaving a candle
5:47
lit they come in all different styles
5:49
and shapes ones I particularly love I'm
5:52
going to link below and show you right
5:54
here they are a pillar candle that I
5:57
have in these hurricane candle holders
6:00
and they have this 3D flickering flame
6:03
to them that is so incredibly realistic
6:06
if you step back just a couple of feet
6:08
you would not know that these candles
6:11
are not real and that they aren't
6:13
actually lit they're fantastic they come
6:15
in a timer you can dim them if they're
6:18
just really really cool and the price is
6:20
great so think about some of the newer
6:24
options for Candlelight if you haven't
6:26
been a candle person in the past or you
6:29
don't like scents of candles burning in
6:30
your home think about some of the
6:33
flameless candle options they're really
6:36
fantastic now and some of them you
6:39
really can't tell the difference from a
6:41
distance last but not least one of the
6:44
things that makes your home feel cozy is
6:47
the fact that it feels like your home
6:50
it's not generic it has artwork on the
6:54
walls you may have collections that you
6:57
like to display I remember my
6:59
grandparents they used to to collect
7:01
salt and pepper shakers like the cutest
7:04
little figurine salt and pepper shakers
7:06
you ever did see they had them in this
7:08
huge case and I still remember that
7:10
about their home there was something
7:11
about seeing that case filled with
7:14
hundreds of different salt and pepper
7:16
shakers that gave you this warm cozy
7:19
feeling of like family and at home and
7:23
collections really do that also just
7:25
other artwork that you've chosen that
7:28
you really love on the wall a gallery
7:30
wall of all of your family photos things
7:33
like that are great to make your home
7:35
feel cozy feel personalized and feel
7:39
like it's made just for you there are a
7:41
lot of ways to make your home feel cozy
7:43
for free or just on a really low budget
7:46
so whether it's just a matter of
7:48
rearranging your space whether it's
7:50
making those enclosed spaces by drawing
7:53
your furniture in around an area rug or
7:56
maybe going out and purchasing a few
7:57
baskets or you could add some flameless
8:00
candle bills for under twenty dollars to
8:03
your home things like that will just
