The 2024 Hygge Holiday Box
There’s something so magical and inherently hygge about the holiday season. It’s a time to linger with loved ones, enjoying one another’s company, sharing delicious meals and good conversations. A time to cozy up in front of a fire for slow, relaxing days spent doing whatever nurtures your soul. We hope the items in this special edition box help you embrace the true spirit of the season.
First, just as you might light a candle to set the tone for the day, allow the scent of the season to infuse your home by using Simmer and Co.'s Be Merry & Bright Simmer Mix. You don’t need to worry about monitoring several candles throughout your space with this fragrant alternative — instead, fill a pot with some water and the mix, and soon you’ll be enjoying the aroma of orange, apple, clove, cranberry, cinnamon, nutmeg, and cedar. As the mix’s name suggests, it captures all the quintessential holiday fragrances in one convenient package.
Before you tackle the day’s to-do list, pour your warm beverage of choice into the coffee mug from Parceline Ceramic and spend a few minutes mindfully savouring it. As you hold the stunning handcrafted stoneware mug, notice the way the beverage warms your hands, how the steam wafts up through the air to brush your cheeks as you take a sip, and appreciate the flavours dancing across your tastebuds.
If you’re looking for a special treat, try out the decadent Zimt Chocolates drinking chocolate mix. The vegan mix contains only coconut sugar, cocoa powder and cacao paste, so you can mix it with your milk of choice, allowing you to customize it to your preference. For a twist of wintery flavour and a joyous burst of colour, pop in a peppermint marshmallow from Butter Baked Goods and create a delicious peppermint hot chocolate. For a peppermint mocha, add a shot or two of espresso.
Then, it's time to get some sunlight. Even in the chilly seasons, it can be so beneficial to spend time in nature — you just want to ensure you bundle up to protect yourself from the elements. The cozy hand knit cowl from Fazl is the perfect solution. And, as an added bonus, the cream hue will pair beautifully with any outerwear.
Pull on the cowl and your other cold weather accessories and spend a few minutes crunching the snow under your feet and observing the winter wonderland all around you. When you return from your outdoor jaunt, get your simmer pot going again, fill your mug with another toasty beverage, and spend some time doing an indoor hygge activity of your choosing — putting together a puzzle, painting, reading, cooking, or just spending even more time with loved ones.
Finally, wrap your day with a bit of pampering using Midnight Paloma's scrub and moisturizer duo. The Pacific sea salt and coconut oil will leave your skin felling incredible as the vanilla mint fragrance enchants your senses. While you’re caring for your skin, take a moment to reflect on a few things you’re grateful for to nourish yourself from the inside as well.
We hope the carefully curated items in this box allow you to savour quiet moments and meaningful connections over the holiday season and beyond.
