34 Oh-So-Cozy Winter
Bedroom Ideas You’ll Love

Ready to transform your teen bedroom into a winter wonderland? From plush sherpas to luxe velvets, winter is all about bringing warmth and comfort to your space. That way, you have a place to rest and rejuvenate after a day in the snow or cold.  

Whether you’re looking for a few winter touches or a total transformation, these winter bedroom ideas will help turn your space into an ultra-cozy winter sanctuary.

1. Keep It Bright

Winter is all about brightness! From luminous snow to merry choirs, it’s a season for keeping things light. Try switching out your duvet for something white or cream to help winterize your bed.

2. Make Space to Lounge 

With the harsh weather outside, it’s important to make comfortable spaces inside. These poufs are perfect for leaning back on or resting your feet. The chunky knits add extra softness and comfort.

3. Bring on the Blue

Another winter-must is adding shades of blue. While snow and ice are usually white, they are also often portrayed in art or film with royal blues. Adding blues can be as simple as switching out your sheet set.

4. Add Pops of Velvet

Velvet adds softness and luxury to this cold time of year. Try finding some velvet pillows to warm up your space. Bonus points if the pillows come in shades of creams, blues or greens!

5. Stock Up on Silver

Did someone say silver bells? Silver is a classic winter color that adds sophistication and class to any space. You can add silver to your bedroom with a luxe comforter or bedspread.

6. Keep Things Warm

Blankets are an absolute must for the cold winter season. The warmer and softer, the better. Try looking for plush sherpas, chunky knits or fuzzy faux furs. You can even find heated blankets for extra warmth!

7. Let There Be Mirrors

Since we often spend more time inside during the winter, it’s important to make your space feel as big and open as possible. By reflecting the room back, mirrors give the illusion of more space. You can use this trick by adding floor-length mirrors or hanging smaller mirrors on your bedroom walls.

8. Pick Plaid Accents

Often used in flannels, plaids call to mind feelings of warmth and comfort. Whether you’re adding plaid to your bedspread or simply picking up a set of winter pajamas, choosing plaid is a simple way to bring a wintry feel to your room.

9. Pull Out the Pampas

While pampas grow in warmer weather like spring or summer, they are often preserved by drying so they can be used all year round. Plus, with no watering needed, they make the perfect winter decor.

10. Get Festive

Whether you celebrate Christmas, Hanukkah, Kwanzaa or the Yuletide, try adding some festivity to your space. You can do this with patterned prints or other decor associated with your holiday of choice.

11. Get Your Glitter On

Bring the sparkling of winter snowflakes to your bedroom by adding glitter to your space. This shimmering wall art can be personalized with your initials for a preppy winter look.

12. Make Use of Texture

If your bedroom is filled with whites and creams for the winter, make sure things don’t get too flat by adding textured elements to your space. A ruched bedspread or patterned planter can be great options.

13. Add Chunky Knits

Is there anything more inviting than a chunky knit blanket after spending time outside in the cold? Drape one over your chair or at the foot of your bed for an easy way to bring warmth and comfort to your room.

14. Show Off Your Wreaths

Winter wreaths don’t always have to be made from pine. You can also use natural elements or bold glittered wreaths to show off your own personal style while still keeping up with winter trends.

15. Go for Gold

Having guests stay over for the holidays? Make them feel like royalty with pops of gold in your decor. Plus, its warm hues are the perfect way to brighten up a space in the wintertime.

16. Light the Candles

Candles create the perfect winter ambience with their warm glow. Whether you’re burning a classic vanilla scent or enjoying the aromas of the wizarding world, you can’t go wrong with this winter decor.

17. Make It Mint

Winter mint is more than a delicious scent or flavor. It’s also a gorgeous color for the holiday season. Try adding a mint-colored bedspread or blanket to your space for a lovely winter touch.

18. Pick White Decor

White is a classic winter color, so be sure to incorporate it into your bedroom somehow. One option is finding fun white decor items, like these mini tree lights.

19. Hang Up Some Lights

With shorter days in the wintertime, it can sometimes get a little dark both inside and out. Counteract this by adding fairy lights to your space! These waterfall lights even look like snow falling through the sky.

20. Be Inspired By Snow

Snowflakes’ intricate patterns are perfect winter inspiration. Try to find decor items that look like snowflakes, like this gorgeous carved mirror.

21. Keep Things Soft

Adding soft elements to your bedroom is a fast way to prepare for the cold winter months. Try finding a fur or faux-fur rug to warm up your cold toes!

22. Put Out Some Snow Globes

Snow globes are a classic winter decor item. Find one with a snowy landscape to help make your bedroom feel like a winter wonderland. These Harry Potter snow globes add an extra touch of magic!

23. Stay Light and Airy

Mimic the light and airy feeling of snow wafting through the sky with delicate decor items like these sheer pastel blue curtains. To make your ceilings look taller, hang your curtains as high above the window as possible.

24. Bring On the Bows

Call to mind holiday presents with decor items featuring bows, like this gorgeous golden mirror. You can also use velvet bows to add an extra feeling of warmth and luxury to your space!

25. Hang Up Your Stockings

Have stockings you plan on using this season? Hang them up in your bedroom for a festive touch and fill them with teen stocking stuffers. If you don’t have a fireplace in your room, you can always just pick a place on your wall to use.

26. Show Off Your Mugs

What’s winter without a hot drink? Instead of hiding your favorite mugs inside the kitchen cabinet, go ahead and display them in your room. Bonus points if your mugs are Harry Potter themed!

27. Use Wooden Features

Adding light natural colors is a great way to brighten up your space during the cold winter months. Birch, poplars and pines are great options.

28. Bring Out Holiday Hats

Holiday hats are an easy way to take your room from fall to winter. You can use hats on their own or find decorations that incorporate hats, like these festive party gnome pillows.

29. Let There Be Tulle

Tulle is a great fabric for winter since its lightweight and sheer material brings airy softness to any space. Hanging tulle curtains is a great way to incorporate this beautiful fabric into your room.

30. Go for Sherpa

Sherpa is a fabric you can’t go wrong with in the wintertime. Its ultra-soft fabric will bring comfort and warmth to you during cold winter months. Incorporate this fabric into your room with blankets or plush robes.

31. Liven Things Up

Just because it’s wintertime doesn’t mean you can’t have any plants. Low-maintenance plants like aloe vera can be a great way to liven up your space indoors during the wintertime.

32. Show Off Your Favorite Winter Sport

Whether you love to ski or snowboard, show off your passion! Adding winter sports into your decor is a fun way to add some personality to your space. Change out your sheets for an easy winter upgrade to your room.

33. Add Some Trees

Forests of evergreen trees with snow-covered boughs are a classic winter scene. Bring some of this winter magic indoors by using tree-inspired decor items. Feel free to opt for items in non-traditional colors, like this pink mini tree!

34. Bring in Some Aromatherapy

Whether you’re burning incense or simply diffusing essential oils into the air, scent is a great way to get your room ready for winter. Opt for deep woodsy notes or sugary sweet cookie aromas.
