Interior designer Saara McLoughlin shares her favourite cosy home essentials

RTÉ Home of the Year Finalist Saara McLoughlin is known for her colourful and creative style. Here, she shares her picks from Homesense to create a warm, welcoming mood.

We’ve all been feeling the chill recently, and with colder days comes the desire to make our homes feel extra cosy and welcoming. This doesn’t have to mean a total revamp, however. 

Interior designer Saara McLoughlin has an incredible eye for pairing colour and pattern to create warm, inviting spaces, and she knows the power of switching out a few accessories to transform a room.

A few simple swaps can bring your room from cold to cosy, and Saara loves to visit Homesense for updates that are incredible quality, but won’t break the bank. 

Their range is full of top brands and pieces that you’ll turn to year after year for your seasonal switch-ups. 

Saara has picked out some of her favourites from the range, ideal for creating your own little sanctuary this winter.
