Adding light and warmth to your home.

I don't know about you, but I'm not a huge fan of winter, there is always far too much rain for my liking, and I hate the fact that its starting to get dark around 4.30ish, so lighting in my home is important, not just so that I can see what I'm doing, but also for creating a nice bit of ambiance in my favourite rooms, so today I'm sharing some tips from Joanna Bolt, head of trends at Homebase,  on  how to create a cosy   warm and light  home this winter, using different lighting techniques  and a few well chosen  accessories.   

.....and here's a few of my favourite items from the clip, sparkly beaded lights that...well.. just sparkle, over sized light bulbs, such a huge trend at the moment, and who could not fall in love with this little family of owls to make any hall way more welcoming?
