Everybody loves to cuddle up in the cool weather, and some retailers have just the right products to create a warm feeling in your home. Here are some ideas from the team at Our Home, to your home.
Pillow talk

There is no feeling better than walking through the pillow section of a home décor shop and finding the perfect cushion for your living room. Not only do they provide comfort and warmth, they add style to your room.
Which is why it’s a tough decision, as you must find a good one; soft, fluffy, cuddly and most importantly, comfortable.
The decision may be hard but the pay off is more than worth it, there is no bond stronger than a homebody and their favourite pillow.
1. Ivory patterned austin cushion $70, Walls and Windows.
Everybody loves a throw
When you want to cosy up on the couch, what’s the first thing you reach for? Your favourite blanket, of course.
Winter is the best time of year for snuggling down with a blanket and a good book or TV show, or sharing a blanket with a loved one for added warmth.
We recommend finding blankets or throws you love the feel of — are you a fluffy, fleecy or knitted kind of person?

It’s common scents
Candles are a winter staple, and for good reason. They smell nice, they warm up your space and they look gorgeous, especially when paired with a candle holder.
They’re for everyone, coming in a range of colours, scents, sizes and burn times. so explore what’s out there and love what you find, or you’ll never know what scents make sense.
Choosing a candle will be the hardest decision, as once you have one, you can light it up for any occasion. Dinner with guests? Date night? No power? The uses are innumerable.

Fresh as a daisy
The cold weather can make rooms feel empty and unwelcoming, which is why we recommend plants and vases to keep your room feeling full and inviting.
Natives, such as wattle, waratah flowers and gum leaves are always a hit with guests, as they connect us to the land we live on and the beauty around us.
Once you’ve found your flower, vases will be at the front of your mind. The possibilities are endless, tall, wide, intricate, simple, glass, clay, ceramic, which vase style will you fall in love with?
