“By wisdom a house is built, and by understanding it is established; by knowledge the rooms are filled with all precious and pleasant riches”
Proverbs 24:3-4
December was unusually warm here in Northeast Alabama, complete with wearing a short sleeved shirt on Christmas! But January is swinging the pendulum and we have found ourselves with below freezing temps the past few days! I guess you could say winter made a fashionably late entrance this year!
January makes me think of cozy rooms, crackling fires, stack of books, and a mug of hot chocolate…with whipped cream on top, of course! With my mind on all things warm and cozy, I thought it would be temperature appropriate to share rooms that invite you in and wrap you in warmth! You’ll notice a common denominator in each room…a fireplace with the glow of logs burning…it doesn’t get much cozier than that! Make yourself a cup of coffee, tea, or hot chocolate and sit down and enjoy!

Click each photo to go to the original source. This is my idea of cozy…crackling fire, leather bound books, comfy seating, coffered ceiling! I could stay here for a while!
Elegance with lovely lighting and art, but very welcoming! A pair of leather chairs, stone fireplace, and natural light create a cozy ambiance! An English room with period furniture and sparkling chandeliers is still warm and inviting! A French chateau (obviously out of most of our price range) exudes a cozy feel with its antique mantel! A rustic room with large windows and plenty of charm! I love pattern and this room provides plenty with the large tapestry, window treatments, upholstered chairs, and the oriental rug! A sitting area within a kitchen is perfect for relaxing!
A charming room with layers of texture and color!Very chic, but still welcoming!
Call me when spring arrives!
Light-filled space!
Blue and white remain timeless! A cozy porch! A small and peaceful space for reading in front of the warm fire!
Even a Palm Beach residence has a cozy fire! White-washed cypress beams and a fireplace made from local stone creates the perfect family room in Tennessee!
A roaring fire takes center stage in this home, furnished with a nubby cream sofa! A pair of lanterns along with a stone fireplace and plenty of patterns brings warmth to the white walls and ceiling! A gorgeous room, love everything about it!
