Ever wish your home was just a little bit cozier, but didn’t know where to start? Cozy homes can give you a sense of relief when you walk into your home and make it easier for you to relax after a long day. The great thing about it is that you don’t have to throw out all of your furniture and decorations to achieve this cozy place. These five items can instantly upgrade your home to the cozy pad you’ve been dreaming of.

Plants

I can’t stress how important it is to have plants in the home. They help purify the air and bring life to the home. Try to opt for more low maintenance plants, as the higher maintenance may seem to be more of a burden then an asset. This calla lily from thesill.com is a great start to getting plants into your home. You can find a great list of low maintenance plants at Happy Diy Home as well.

Air Purifier

Air purifiers are not only an essential for those of us with seasonal allergies, but great for anyone who wants to create a cozier home. Air purification is great for helping increase the room circulation, absorbs toxins in the air, and removes mold and bacteria. This is one of the best priced and performing air purifiers that you can get at Amazon.com.

Cozy Throw

Nothing says cozy like a comfy throw blanket. Swap out your thin throw for a chunky knit throw like this one from etsy. Not only are they cozy and warm, but they are a beautiful accent decoration for your living room.

Cute Mugs

Cute mugs are an essential in any cozy home. Try to find some that are inspiring and creative, these will help create some personality in your home. I really like these eye design mugs from anthropologie that will definitely be a conversation starter.

Candles… Of Course

Of course, for a cozy home you need great candles. The current collection from Gold Soul Candle Co. is an aromatherapy line that will make your home calm, serene and cozy. The three candles are “Release”, “Ease” and “Heal” each with their own aromatherapy benefits.
