Top 10 Décor Items Your Home Needs This Winter

Warm up to spending more time inside this winter by decorating your interior spaces with our favourite pieces.

Finetuning our living spaces throughout the year is essential, but especially so during wintertime. While we find refuge in the warmth of our homes away from the harsh winter chill, it’s the perfect time to redecorate our living areas. From the kitchen to the bathroom, there’s a lot that can be done to transform a space with the addition of a few curated items.

Throws

Essential for cold nights and chilly afternoons, a good throw rug is integral to staying cosy during the depths of winter.

Investing in a well-made, high-quality blanket could be the difference between being comfortably warm and feeling a little cold.

For this, Loewe’s Anagram Debossed Striped Mohair-Blend Blanket is the perfect addition to the end of your couch or bed to add a touch of warmth to your relaxing moments.

Made from a mohair wool blend, the throw features a yellow and a navy stripe down either side, a leather embossed logo tag and tasselled edges for that classic blanket look.

Finding the right scent for your home is essential to cultivating a warm and inviting space.

Lighting a luxurious candle is the perfect way to add a hint of delicious scent to a room, as well as a glow of soft light.

Masters of fragrance in all forms, Byredo’s premium candles are the ideal addition to any home – all year round.

Handmade in France, each of the mouth-blown glass candles uses the brand’s signature black wax and cotton wicks and incorporates an intricate fragrance profile.

Coffee Table Books

For those that aren’t chasing the sun and travelling summertime abroad, a destination photography book will inject some fun and sun into a living space.

With Pinterest-worthy covers and contents, you can’t look past a beautiful Assouline coffee table book.

Although there’s a wide variety of brightly coloured books produced by the publisher, our current favourite is Provence Glory.

Inside the soft lavender hardcovers, find inspiring imagery of the crystal clear waters of Marseille’s Calanque de Sormiou and the inspiring fields of lavender in Valensole.

The 312-page beauty takes readers on a journey through the South of France region that’s loved for its beauty and charm, with an exterior that looks great on a bookshelf.

Incense

Invite an air of tranquillity into your home by burning a simple and fragrant stick of incense.

Said to purify the air and increase positive energy, the practise of burning incense an aura of peacefulness and subtle scent.

Finding the right incense scent for you and your home is essential to reaping the benefits, so The Commonfolk offers a variety of three delicious scents for you to experiment with free of toxins and chemicals.

Our favourite, Morocco, has a full and fresh scent that fills the room with ease.

With an aroma of sage, saffron and amber mixed in with notes of lemon, cranberry and coffee, a single stick will revitalise your winter spaces in a moment.

Glasses Sets

Glassware almost too pretty to drink out of.

Perfect for at-home cocktail nights, a great pair of glasses will elevate any concoction – both non-alcoholic and boozy.
