Cosy home set-up ideas – your fixes for a warmer winter

Cosy home set-up ideas – your fixes for a warmer winter

The cosy home season is calling, and this is your inspiration to make your space feel calmer, warmer and cleaner throughout the winter months with some maintenance made easy.

1.     Put the squeaks to bed

A cosy home film night shouldn’t be disrupted by squeaky recliners or creaky doors. Before you settle in, give the metal recliner joints and door hinges a little lubricant.

Arm yourself with your 3-IN-ONE Multi-Purpose Drip Oil and use the spout to direct the drop so you don’t waste any and it goes straight into the moving parts.

2.    Pull the warmth closer

Draughty windows aren’t included in the cosy home picture you had imagined. Clear the dust and dirt away from the window tracks with a vacuum. Wipe with a clean, wet cloth and then dry.

Replace damaged draught seals and maintain the metal hinges or latches. If they feel stiff, apply Drip Oil to them and work it in.

Having fully sealed and operational windows means you can ventilate your space to get rid of the morning condensation and lock the heat in afterwards.

3.     Make your WFH corner more inviting

There’s a chill in the air now when you work from home – not to mention, your drawer is stuck and your chair isn’t rolling well. Safe to say, it’s not feeling like a cosy home office.

What you need, first and foremost, is a blanket for your knees and perhaps a soft lamp to make it feel warmer. Next, of course, your Drip Oil! Apply to the drawer runners and chair wheel bearings, and work it in.

4.    Add a little sparkle to your everyday

Having a freshly cleaned kitchen before the kettle goes on is certainly a cosy home feeling!

For stainless steel taps and handles, you can apply your Drip Oil to a clean cloth and polish the metal to leave them shining bright.

Buff away excess and keep away from food-contact surfaces

Add a warm tea towel and your favourite seasonal scent, and your kitchen will be ready for the cosy season.

5.     Set up a snug

Create a cosy home reading or crafting corner with a thick rug, warm lamps and a basket of hobby supplies.

If you have a fold-out craft table, storage chest or sewing machine that hasn’t been used in a while, maintain it with your Drip Oil to keep the mechanisms moving – so you’re more likely to spend time doing what you love.
