Hosting Guests This Winter? Make Your Home Warm & Welcoming!

December 5, 2024

Winter is the perfect time to make your home feel extra cozy and inviting, especially if you’re hosting guests. Here are some simple ways to prepare:

  • Warm Lighting: Swap out harsh, bright bulbs for soft, warm-toned lighting to create a soothing and relaxed environment your guests will enjoy.
  • Layered Textures: Add cozy layers like throw blankets, plush pillows, and soft rugs to create a comfortable, lived-in feel that’s perfect for cold winter nights.
  • Seasonal Scents: Light candles or use diffusers with seasonal fragrances like pine, cinnamon, or vanilla to fill your home with the comforting scents of winter.

By making just a few thoughtful changes, you can turn your home into a welcoming winter retreat that will leave your guests feeling right at home. Enjoy hosting, and stay cozy!

Radical responsibility is a tough one, but wow does it change everything. When I take full ownership of even the smallest part I play in a situation, it pulls me out of blame and frustration and puts me back in a place of growth and clarity.
If you’re wanting to feel lighter and more empowered, try it. Even just once. It’s amazing what shifts when we decide to own our part and move forward.
