I don’t know about you, but when December rolls around, I want to become a full-fledged puddle in the center of my couch. Tis the szn when I crave warm beverages straight to the face, twinkly lights in my periphery, and sherpa-adjacent fabrics touching my skin at all times. The holidays are all about being comfy AF—at least they are in my house. Sure, I’ll put on some sequins and stilettos for a festive party or two (mostly because I love champagne), but other than that, cuddle mode is activated and there’s no turning it off. And because I like for my home to closely resemble my mood, I go for the ~cozy Christmas aesthetic~ all month long.
If you’re like me and like your interior design to reflect your inner lazy polar bear come Christmastime, you’re in luck, because I compiled a list of products to help you do just that. Scroll down for some tips on how to get that aforementioned cozy Christmas aesthetic in a snap, as well as exactly what home products you need to add to cart to make it happen. Don’t worry—they’re all easy to add to your existing decor and pretty darn affordable, because, well, I get it. (Those post-Christmas sales aren’t going to invest in themselves.) Happy decorating, my little elves!
