Before we  leave this green earth, we will all spend more than a third of our lives sleeping. Yet when you think of it, people pay way more attention to the sofas they sit on, than the beds they sleep in. Everyone wants a warm and cozy bed to snuggle into at night, but why do we have to sacrifice style for functionality?  Magniflex, Italy’s #1 brand when it comes to ultra luxurious, eco-friendly mattresses, strives to bring urban chic into the bedroom with it’s super trendy Color Line. The bright and colorful mattresses are a unique concept whose time has come. This is not your grandmother’s mattress!  A variety of decorative patterns allow you to express your inner diva without surrendering support. The Lip Stamp pattern you see above, was inspired by the  Yves Saint Laurent design. Kisses!!!

Naughty , naughty! We love the I (heart) Sex design, very cute.But better keep this one under wraps when mom comes to visit. HAHA! Magniflex isn’t just about trendy styling, their mattress are unique in their attention to detail and comfort. Underneath these sexy fabrics is a layer of Memoform the company’s eco-friendly, open-cell memory foam. The core consists of Eliosoft, a shape-conforming foam that adds flexibility and cradling support.

You want luxurious? Some of the mattresses, like the ‘Peace’ one above and the ‘Flower Power’ below, are infused with either lavender or chamomile. Using nanotechnology, millions of micro-capsules of either lavender or chamomile are infused into the mattress’ printed  fabric covering. Upon contact with the skin, the micro-capsules break, releasing a tranquil aroma proven to support relaxation. These soothing herbs are known for their calming properties, chamomile has been established as having anti-allergenic and anti-bacterial properties and lavender is commonly referred to as natures sleeping potion. It’s like having a spa treatment in your own bed!

Eat all the crackers you want in bed, some of the Color Line mattresses feature, removable fabric coverings so you can keep your sleep area neat and tidy! For more information on Magniflex mattresses site at MAGNIFLEX.

We could spend hours snuggling into a comfy womb-like bean bag.  Sure you sacrifice your dignity when trying to get in and out of them-most unflattering, but the squishy seat can’t be beat in the cozy department. Once a staple of 1970’s apartment living, the bean bag’s popularity has diminished over the years. Swedish designers, Form Us With Love, have tried to change that, by giving the simple bag a  much needed face lift.

Introducing the dated relic to a whole new generation was going to require this sad sack have a full body makeover.  Swedish design group Form Us With Love took the deflated bag and bolstered it’s image,  not to mention it’s height, by adding a ‘cage’ base that not only gives the bag form but elevates it to a more comfortable (and attractive) seating position.

Love being outdoors in the winter but want to keep warm and toasty? Design group AK47 have designed an outdoor circular fire pit aptly named, Zero,  that will give you and your friends a cozy place to gather and relax.

Zero’s round design allows for seating but also wood storage, so you won’t have to stop the party to keep the home fires burning. Go to Ak47 to see all their firewood inspired designs.

Despite a close call with the Fred Campfire Candle, (it created a towering inferno but still love the effect just got to keep a close eye on it) we still love candles in the winter. A little flickering candle light makes us feel all warm and cozy . We love this candle because it gives you more than just a flickering flame, as you burn the candle a little spirit emerges to let you know the dark dreary winter will soon be over. Get it at Wrapables.
