Making your home cozy doesn’t need to be limited to fall and winter. Cozy is more than faux fur blankets and candles; it’s creating spaces in your home that feel warm and inviting. Spaces that give you room to relax.

We put together a list of small and easy changes you can make to your bedroom to make it cozy and comfortable.

When travel is limited (and even when it’s not!), a staycation allows you to appreciate where you are and take a break from work, life, and stress.

We talked to our store managers to get their favorite ideas on how to plan a staycation.

Lighting has a big effect on how you feel in your home. The effect may be more subtle than paint color or furniture but it makes the difference between a lackluster space and a lively one.

We met up with Cindy, our Store Manager in Middleton, to get her advice on lighting your home.
