Happy New Year! No doubt we are all beginning this new decade with hopes of starting afresh - and the current cold snap has certainly helped in terms of freshness! However, it looks like our homes will remain at the heart of our lives for the foreseeable future, so here are a few simple changes that can make a world of difference...

Cushion the blow...

Need to chase away those January blues? Comfort may be in short supply as we enter the anxieties of another period of isolation. Cushion the blow is our advice: because little comforts can make a great difference to our sense of wellbeing. Make the hard edges of another lockdown softer by making yourself comfortable - and surround yourself with calming colours to soothe body and soul.

Throw in some colour...

Sometimes, all you need for a new look is an injection of colour. At this time of year, we love the calm serenity of smokey blue and silvery greys. Why not use a throw as your basis for a new look? You can add it to a sofa or bed and echo it with a few cushions or a lampshade in a complementary colour. Sometimes, if you are spending a lot of time in one room, it can be fun to rotate your throws and cushions seasonally. This really helps to make familiar spaces feel new.

Lighten the darkness...

Candlelight is a great way to introduce instant softness to a room; it's delicate flickering light can be magnified beautifully inside hand-blown glass. Eating by candlelight can add a touch of romance and comfort to a gloomy January evening, a reminder that in this world of change, some time-honoured traditions stay the same.

Shop Glass

For those looking to invest in the idea of a 'New Year, new look' then a rug is the perfect means by which to transform an entire room. Psst: did you know there are a few rugs left in our Winter Sale? Hurry, while stocks last....
