Low Lighting:
Use string lights, candles, and low-wattage bulbs to create a cozy, intimate ambiance.
Consider incorporating black or dark-colored candle holders and lanterns for a mysterious touch.

Rich Textures:
Velvet, faux fur, and heavy knit fabrics can add a luxurious and warm feel.
Incorporate textured ornaments and decorations.
