If you have been wondering how to utilize your sunroom during the long winter months, you're not alone! Often people think the sunroom is a place that has to be abandoned until the warmer months. Excessive windows can make the space feel cold both literally and metaphorically.
However, with advances in technology for windows, you have no more excuses to ditch your gorgeous sunroom for an entire season! Just look at these gorgeous images from Stylish Eve and you will be gearing up to gather the family in your sunroom during the holiday season and throughout the winter.
A fireplace and some jaw dropping, twinkly lighting immediately transform the space. If you're going to embrace the winter season, elegant home lighting fixtures can bring a sparkle and sophistication to the space that translates throughout the year.
This midcentury space has texture and layering that makes it feel cozy throughout the winter months, but is chic and modern enough that you don't feel bombarded with stuff during the warmer seasons.
This classic sunroom has a winter white feel that is especially accented by the snow-hewn yard outside. But the color palette and transitional aesthetic of the space can easily feel summery and light.
Adding in dark woods and leathers to the space gives it that winter weight that allows it to be an all-seasons space. And I'm sure that casual storage basket next to the sofa is stuffed with cozy throw blankets at a moments notice.
Making your sunroom a gathering spot by placing your piano in there can be another great way to keep this room occupied throughout the year. Typically over the holidays there is always that one uncle/cousin/friend who loves to tickle the ivories after a big meal, and with the piano in a space you usually wouldn't use it draws people in.
Again make sure there are cozy accessories like pretty throw pillows and blankets easily accessible and your furniture is upholstered in inviting fabrics like velvet and brushed cotton.
If you don't have a ton of room in your sunroom, but still want to enjoy it year round, layering and a selective eye are key. This vintage inspired space has so much going on visually that it appears warm and inviting without being overwhelming.
Although it seems counterintuitive, layering textiles, pillows and small furniture pieces in the right proportions can make a small space feel bigger than it seems.
Your holiday house guests will want to curl up in this space and enjoy the beautiful winter views.
