Before you buy another pillow, try this simple decorating exercise.

Cozy DIY Home

Want to create a beautiful & cozy home? I share weekly budget-friendly DIY decor ideas to inspire you to create a home you love.

Before you buy another pillow, vase, lamp or piece of art, I want you to try something.

Stand at the entrance to the room you’re decorating and ask yourself:

“What is this room actually missing?”

Not, “What can I buy?”

Not, “What is trending right now?”

What is the room missing?

Maybe it lacks contrast because everything is a similar colour.

Maybe all the furniture and decor are roughly the same height, so nothing creates a focal point.

Maybe the room has plenty of furniture but not enough texture variation.

Or maybe the overhead light illuminates the room, but it doesn’t create that warm, cozy glow you want in the evening.

This is the difference between shopping for decor and designing a room.

When you understand what the room needs, you can make one thoughtful change that has an impact instead of bringing home five more things that don’t solve the problem.

That is what I want The Cozy Formula to help you do.

It walks you through the elements of a beautiful room one at a time, so you can identify what is working, what is missing and what will make the greatest difference.

And through August 31, The Cozy Formula also includes my Canva Mood Board Templates & Mini Course as a free bonus.

Happy decorating,

Christina
