INTER IORS
DRESS IT UP Once you’ve sorted heat and lighting, then you can have some fun with accessories. From cable-knit blankets to faux-fur rugs and luxurious velvet curtains, you’ll be spoiled for choice when it comes to creating a sumptuous sanctuary this winter. “Don’t neglect the finishing touches – these are what can really pull a room together to make it a warm and inviting space,” advises Bethan Clark from the team at Iris & Violet. “Try layering textures with throws and cushions to make your sofa look and feel welcoming; and add some colour by adding a print to a wall, a plant pot or vase to an empty corner – you will give the room a fresh feel and add personality instantly. “Choose items that you love,” she adds. “Your space is very personal, and by adding things that bring you joy, you’re ultimately going to create something that makes you feel cosy and relaxed.” A recent addition to the city centre, Iris & Violet has gorgeous throws, cushions and rugs aplenty in store to help you
