14 Easy Cozy Winter Decor Ideas for After Christmas

As the festive season winds down and the vibrant holiday decorations are packed away, we find ourselves faced with the challenge of transitioning our homes into a cozy winter retreat. The post-Christmas period can leave spaces feeling a bit bare and cold, especially with the shorter days and longer nights. I find it is very difficult to transition our spaces and find winter decor after Christmas.

Typical elements I use to guide my clients to help combat the winter blues include incorporating extra lighting, adding layers of texture, and refreshing a few small corners of their home to be more beautiful and functional. Consider investing in fairy lights, a new blanket (or two), and a few permanent pieces to help refresh the space. This work will transform your space into a haven of comfort during the chilly winter evenings. Embrace the winter home decor after Christmas, and let your creativity shine as you explore these items I’ve thoughtfully curated for you.

I won’t lie, there are other designers and home influencers who’ve done a ton of research and testing to find the best throw pillow inserts on Amazon. I, unfortunately, have not. But, that doesn’t mean I don’t have a good recommendation! I got lucky, and purchased one brand last fall and so far, they have served me well! They’re soft, fluffy, and karate-choppable, and that’s good enough for me.

One tried and true designer tip I do have for you, is to purchase your pillow inserts one size up from the pillow cover size. This ensures a nice full look to your pillows, and that they don’t look saggy. Trust me!
