In the colder winter months, curling up and staying cosy is always near the top of the priority list. Most people choose to transform or overhaul their conservatories Bangor in time for Christmas celebrations – but with some thought, it might be possible to keep some of your seasonal decor on display to take you right through to spring.
To do this, you’ll need to keep things fairly neutral and use natural elements; sticks, logs or pinecones to bring some texture into the heart of your home. Be bold, think big and turn your conservatory into a room for all seasons.
Blooming Lovely
Some plants say ‘winter’ more than others – the beautiful poinsettia is well known for its luscious red and green leaves and it is widely used in Christmas decoration displays. They do have a bit of reputation for being hard to maintain, but they should thrive well beyond December if they are placed in good light and away from any draughts. Another more contemporary classic is the mini Christmas tree.
Winter Cushions
Deer prints, tartan patterns and warm neutral colours can complement almost any existing interior design. Inject some lovely winter warmth into your conservatory by digging yours out of the linen cupboard. If you don’t have any stored away, you can pick some up from as little as £3 from most supermarkets. Happy cushion-mas!
Creative with Candles
A flickering candle can capture the imagination. Warming and wonderful, they throw off a mesmerising light which is perfect for relaxing. Arrange a collection of them as the centerpiece on a coffee table or windowsill and pair with green foliage to bring the outside in. You could even choose candles with Christmas or winter themed scents for even more sensory immersion into the season.
Seasonal Wreath
You can add some natural warmth and beauty to your conservatory with a homemade twig wreath, this can then be used as a wall feature for the winter months. Or you could simply buy a premade wreath from the local shop to save some hassle.
New Conservatory Roof
It’s not unusual for older conservatories to be too cold to use during the winter months. If you’ve got a polycarbonate or single-glazed roof, it may be providing little or no insulation from the freezing temperatures outside. But there’s no reason why you can’t invest in a new warm roof or tiled conservatory roof and make it a room to use in all seasons.
Proven to make conservatories much warmer in winter, both of these energy-efficient solutions can be installed in days – and because all the original windows, doors, frames and walls are retained there’s minimal disruption.
