Make this a winter you’ll want to stay in for
Weekends fill up fast in the run-up to Christmas, from office parties to festive drinks and last-minute gatherings. But here at Love to Home, the introvert in us enjoys stepping into our cosy era just as much. Think soft cotton-rich blankets, flickering candles, and curtains drawn tight against the chill. It’s the season to layer in texture, light up your space, and indulge in small, mindful rituals.
Here are some picks from our favourite conscious brands – beautiful, sustainable pieces to keep the cosy vibes going for years to come.
Morning cuppa: Bluverde Arte Handmade Ceramic Smoked Grey Stoneware Mug ☕
Start your day wrapped in comfort with a mug that’s as beautiful as it is functional. Handcrafted in their small UK studio, each piece from Ribera Handmade Ceramics carries its own story, with gentle imperfections that make it uniquely yours – a simple, tactile pleasure to accompany your coffee and slow, cosy mornings.
Cosy textures: Carousel Twist Blanket - Micaela Sharp Collaboration 🧶
