Cozy Up For Winter Games – in Your Living Room

The winter storm is still visiting most of you across the nation, and it sure is cold here in New York. In fact so cold that today we decided to skip skiing, and stay home and watch Olympics instead. And what’s more romantic than cuddle up on the couch with your Valentine..?

Some ideas how to create a romantic fireside picnic or cozy up in the front of TV to watch the Olympics.

Stay Warm
Plaid blanket brings on the Canadian log house charm, and makes a perfect indoor picnic blanket on the floor. The ones pictured: top one from Roots, the one in the box from The Scottish Weaver. Felt slippers by Pia Wallen keep your toes warm.

Bring Snacks
Whether it’s champagne and strawberries or hot cocoa and marshmallows, you will need some snacks. The tea kettle is by OXO from Crate and Barrel and the cute twig forks are from 3 Events.

Lit up the Candles
Light up the fireplace – or if your don’t have fun, fill the room with candles. I also love lanterns to bring the cozy log cabin feel into my living room. The one pictured is from Pottery Barn – and they look great indoors during winter and outdoors during summer.
