Places that feel like home. Hard to put into words but ones where you can curl up on the sofa and pick things up to look at and not feel like you're in a show room. Can be new or old but somewhere that feels comfortable. My dad describes it as "a place where you fall asleep in a chair because it's comfy" Grin

Blankets especially knitted type chunky ones
Textures
Fairy lights (I have glass ones)
Antique mirrors (massive one in my room!)
Patchwork blankets
Candles, especially huge church type ones

Me too - nothing quite as nice as the light from a fairy tree wrapped giant triffid plant!

Yup, costs a few quid for some decent warm glow fairy lights, and pennies to run, wrap them round a tall plant, plug in, and they really brighten up dark corners of rooms in the evenings when you don't want the over heads on.

I've also got some battery operated all weather ones wrapped round trees/ big plants out side. Lovely in the evening if you've guests over and are outside.

How anyone can look at a little fairy light and think I hate that beats me 😂
