The cold fall weather is a very welcomed change after a hot summer, but eventually, the winter temperatures will drop to freezing cold levels. When it is cold outside, we want our apartment to be as warm and comfortable as possible. If you want to stay warm and comfortable for the long winter, there are a few things you can do to help. Check out a few of the following tips for using décor to warm up your entire apartment instead of relying just on your heating system.
Chilly and Cold Floors
Hardwood floors are a lovely element to each apartment, but unfortunately, they can get very chilly. The fall is a wonderful time to invest in a couple of area rugs to place around your entire apartment to keep your feet warm and cozy. Ideal places for rugs include underneath your bed. Nobody wants to have cold feet in the morning. Keep them underneath your dining room tables, in your living room, and in your bathroom too.
Warm Up Your Walls
If your apartment’s walls are chilly, it means that some of the heat that you’re paying for is escaping. To treat the heat and keep your apartment space comfortable, add wall tapestries or some fabric features. You can create your own design with pieces of fabrics, or buy one made of thick fabric for the very best results. Your neighbors and friends will really notice the difference.
Drafty Apartment Windows
Drafty windows aren’t ideal in the cooler months, as they’ll let the warm air out and the colder air in. Warm-up your windows with some DIY wool curtains or some energy-efficient window treatments like thermal shades. These décor fixes will add a reliable design element to your apartment while significantly cutting back heating costs. This is a big win-win for your cold apartment!
Comfortable Couch
Colder weather means that it is finally time to snuggle up on the couch with piles of warm blankets and pillows for a cozy night in. shop around for affordable, comfortable, and appealing items to create the best sofa scape.
Buy a Space Heater
A small space heater can do wonders for one room in your apartment. If you feel as if one room simply doesn’t get warm enough, buy a cheap space heater for some quick and convenient heat. They’re a helpful appliance if you need heat in a pinch.
