I've been thinking a lot lately about how to make our home feel more warm and cozy. I see pictures of homes that look cozy to me. And my sister-in-law's house is always so warm and welcoming. I want that for our home. I feel like our home feels somewhat cold. But I can't seem to put my finger on how to warm the place up. I know that having curtains help. Plain blinds are really cold and the soft fabrics seem to make things feel cozier.
Everytime I think I've identified things that are "warm" it seems like it involves adding more "stuff" to our space. And I 'm not much of a "stuff" person. I don't like clutter and knick-knacks. I'm not a modern decorator - more traditional really - but I really hate clutter.
How do you create a warm/cozy/welcoming feeling in your own home without filling it up with too many tchotckes? All suggestions are welcome

Paint? I feel like my parents have a very warm house, and I think it has a lot to do with the fact that EVERY wall in their house is not white, or near white.
