Winter Home Decorating Ideas: Tips to Keep Your Home Warm and Cozy in Utah

The temperature is cooling down, there’s the hope of snow, and it’s time to start thinking about some winter home decorating ideas!

Let’s face it. Once Halloween is out of the way, all we can think about is decorating for Christmas. I say we all just lean into it and get our homes ready for winter. Incorporating the right winter home decor is an easy way to help your home feel extra cozy and festive as the rest of the holidays roll in.

Take a look at some of our favorite winter home decorating ideas!

There are tons of fun ideas to bring to life inside, but let’s start on the porch! A cute wreath on your door, a black and white check doormat, and some small trees flanking your front door is a simple yet effective transformation. If you have rocking chairs or a bench on your porch, you could throw in some outdoor-friendly throw pillows.

Now on to the inside of your home. Nothing says “cozy” like some warm textiles. Pillows, throw blankets, and rugs are a great way to add a homey touch and will leave you wanting to curl up on your couch with a good book.

Consider incorporating textiles in winter colors. Red and green are obvious options, but general jewel tones are great in winter, as well as warm neutrals, like cream, gray, and camel brown.

Using winter greenery in your home decor is an easy way to get in the spirit of the season. Things like juniper, blue spruce, magnolia leaves, pine, redwood, and cedar are all wonderful options. Perhaps you could use them as a centerpiece for your dining room, or an accent piece on a side table.

The fireplace is the center of all things cozy in your home. Even if it’s not lit, you can make it feel comforting and inviting. Put a basket of logs off to the side (I know, I know. It may not be wood burning. Trust me, it’s still a good look.) and a pile of blankets

No matter the time of year, lighting can make a difference with the spaces in your home. Especially during those colder nights during the winter, turn on some soft light. Use light bulbs that give off a soft light, and scatter lamps throughout your home.

There’s something about turning off the main lights in your home and turning on accent lamps to help you feel comfortable, cozy, and ready to wind down for the night.

One great way to sell your home during the winter is to make it feel as comfortable and cozy as possible. Help potential buyers picture how wonderful it would be to live in the home. You would be surprised how effective some pillows and greenery can be in making your house feel like someone’s dream home!
