Creating a cozy and inviting atmosphere is all about comfort. Starting from the entrance door, to the hallway and living room, each space will offer a specific feeling from the minute you step in.
The nordic interior decor is about white walls and fluffy rugs and blankets, therefore, take advantage of the inspiration shown above and recreate this elegant Nordic Christmas living room decor without clogging your space with too many items.
If you haven’t got a fireplace, there are many options to fake one. Either buy an electric fire stove with remote control and place nearby log holder rack for a more realistic look.
Other options are to attach a fireplace wallpaper sticker on the wall, buy flameless led candles, and place them under a wood fireplace mantel. It will look super cozy and will make stunning decor all year round.
Another option I notice in recent years is to play a fireplace video on your tv. Depends on what tv you might have, you can select a fireplace video as a background.
Smart tv has specific apps for using this feature and if you go for it, you will save money that you had thrown away on a fireplace to use just for the festive season.
