THE SIMPLEST DECORATIVE
TOUCHES CAN UP THE STYLE AND
COZINESS OF YOUR SPACE.
>> FROSTY OVERNIGHT
TEMPERATURES, chilly mornings, darkness at
dinnertime — hibernation season is upon us, so we
might as well embrace it by preparing our homes
for the cooler months ahead.
Even the simplest decorative touches can up the
style and coziness of your space, making our epic
Manitoba winter feel more bearable.
"It is important for homeowners to keep in mind
that the long winter months can take a toll on all of
us," says Kelsey Kosman, owner of Winnipeg-based
interior design firm Dollhouse Design.
"Additions that bring visual warmth into the home such as
decor, aromatherapy and warm-toned colour schemes can
help uplift the spirit of the home within the frigid months.
"For many, the act of esthetically winterizing a home and
embracing the upcoming holidays can provide an uplifting
home environment and help to encourage self-care practices
which can help to combat seasonal blues."
