As the weather gets colder, it's time to start thinking about ways to make your home cozier. Your bedroom is one of the most personal spaces in your home. It's where you relax and recharge, so there's no reason why it shouldn't have your full attention. But before you even think of shopping to upgrade your room, consider these helpful pointers to make your space as luxurious as it can be. Follow these tips and you'll be sure to have a cozy bedroom that you'll never want to leave.

Tip #1: Add a Faux Fur Throw

Adding a faux fur throw to your bed is an easy way to make it feel more cozy. Faux fur is also a great way to add texture add interest to your bedroom. Plus, it's super soft and snuggly, so you'll be comfortable all winter long.

Tip #2: Bring in a Sheepskin Rug

Nothing says cozy like a sheepskin rug. It's warm, inviting, and will make your bedroom feel like a true winter retreat. If you don't want to add a rug to your floor, you can also drape a sheepskin over your favorite chair or the end of your bed.

Tip #3: Decorate With Plaid Pillows

Pillows are an easy way to change up your bedroom decor for the season. Choose plaid pillows in festive colors like red, green, and gold for a holiday-inspired look. Or go for a more traditional plaid in muted tones for a cozy, cabin-chic vibe.

Tip #4: Overfill your throw pillows

There's something so luxurious about plush, overfilled throw pillows, which go a long way in transforming your bedroom from "everyday" to a bonafide retreat that emulates the most sumptuous of hotels.

Tip #5: Add a hanging light fixture

The boob lights have got to go. Replace them with a statement-making hanging light or a glamorous chandelier. No need to spend too much money—this West Elm Capiz Rectangle Chandelier adds a touch of drama and romance for just $320.

Tip #6: Tidy Up your nightstand

If you're anything like us, your nightstand is a hodgepodge of essential items: Hand creams, charging cords, half-full glasses of water, quarter-finished novels. It's time to rethink how that's all displayed. Hide some things away in a drawer; display small items on a beautiful tray.

Tip #7: Upgrade your hardware

There's no reason to keep the default hardware that came with your dresser and nightstands (unless, of course, it's already visually stunning!). Replacing hardware is a cheap and easy way to upgrade your room, and there are so many ways to personalize the look: Crystal, gemstone, copper, and so many more.

Tip #8: Add greenery

As always, the quickest and easiest way to upgrade your room from "average" to "expensive-looking" is to add some greenery. What form this takes is up to you: A large fern? Small potted plants on your dresser? No matter how, adding a few plants helps a room make the final leap to luxury.

Tip #9: Show Off Your Artwork

Show off your style with a statement piece of artwork, whether it's a sculpture, photograph, or colorful painting. While it can certainly be displayed on a wall, leaning your favorite piece against a wall can be just as powerful.

Tip #10: Don't Forget the Christmas Decorations!

No winter bedroom would be complete without some festive Christmas decorations. A few well-placed items will make your room feel merry and bright. Try hanging some stockings from the mantel or putting up a miniature Christmas tree next to your bed. Or go all out with garland, lights, and wreaths!

There's no place like home during the holidays—especially when your bedroom is as cozy as can be. Follow these tips and you'll have the perfect space to snuggle up and enjoy the cold weather. So grab that hot cocoa, turn on some Christmas music, and get ready to get cozy!
