Ways to Prep Your Home For Winter

The fall season brings crisp air, sweater weather and pumpkin everything. Many of us love the break from hot summer temperatures – until winter rolls around. The days get shorter, holiday stress overtakes and you’re left wishing for spring to arrive. Yet, would you enjoy winter more if your home was better prepared? We have two quick tips to transform your home for the holidays and new year.

Functional Lighting

In winter, we spend more time indoors. As it gets darker earlier in the day, it’s more important than ever to have sufficient lighting. To combat the winter blues, think about the areas where you spend the most time. Whether it be the kitchen, living room or a home office, every room needs general illumination. However, a focal point is not always enough.

For instance, if you like to read in the living room, it can be hard to see by the light of an overhead fixture when the sun goes down. A reading lamp behind your favorite armchair provides the focused lighting you need to spend evenings curled up with a good book!

Add Vintage Warmth

Seasonal affective disorder often has an impact on people during the cold winter months. You may feel sadder or socially withdrawn as a result of the dark days and gloomy weather. To fight back against these feelings, adding warmth to the interior rooms of your home can help improve mood.
