When your home looks and smells divine, it means coming home to a house to feel proud of. The way the home is organised and the general feel of the home effects your mood, so having the right accessories, décor and scents can contribute towards a sense of peace and security in the home, therefore it’s important to give the home the love it deserves.
If you feel like your home has felt a little neglected over time, we have some easy tips to delight and inspire you to spruce up your little sanctuary and make your house feel like a home again.
Fresh flowers at home
You’d buy flowers for a loved one, so why not buy some flowers for your home too. Fill your home with life, colour and vitality and choose some of your favourite blooms.
As Valentine’s day is coming up why not treat yourself, and your home, to some red roses for a romantic feel to your home? Or perhaps some spring blooms to fill your home with excitement and positivity. Once added to our Grey & Buff Rattan Wicker Shallow Planters, you have the most beautiful display.
Cosy log fires to warm the home
A huge part of our soul-cleansing ethos is to light the fire and treat your home to some warmth. Nothing soothes the soul like a crackling log fire and soft cosy throws for a little extra comfort.
Don’t forget to add your log basket!
Our Grey & Buff Rattan Log Baskets are woven from thick rattan to create a luxuriously handwoven basket, complete with sturdy handles to make manoeuvring heavy logs around the home nice and easy for you. Our wide selection of elegant log baskets are suitable for all décor types. Try Honey Rattan Log Baskets for your boho theme or seek out timeless charm, using Antique Wash Log Baskets.
Of course, if you don’t have a log fire, these baskets also make for the ultimate stylish storage solution, whilst hiding the unsightly.
Perfume the home with candles
Perfume your home and choose from softly scented candles or wax melts and fill the rooms with scents of rose, vanilla and jasmine for subtle and relaxed ambience in your home.
Candles make such an impact, especially when chosen wisely to fit the theme of your home. Of course, if you want a romantic feel to go with the theme of the month then we’d suggest to choose feminine scents such as rosewood or you could choose lavender candles in the bedroom, with calm aromatic notes to help reduce stress and contribute towards a great night’s sleep.
Strategically place your candle where you know you will get the benefits from the glow, such as next to a mirror for extra light!
Fairy lights to make the home glow
And finally, for a memorising twinkle in the home, add some fairy lights to brighten up even the plainest of rooms. Place them around the mirrors, around your head board or place them beautifully in and round one of our wicker lanterns, which look charming on display. There’s nothing like the gentle pitter patter of the rain, whilst sat in the safety of your conservatory, snuggled up in thick fluffy comfy clothes, surrounded by twinkly lights.
We’d love to see your homes spruced up for the season, so don’t forget to tag us @thebasketcompany on Instagram.
