‘Tis the season for decorating your home with nostalgic decor and seasonal items that give you all the warm, fuzzy feelings. Christmas trees, vintage Santa Clauses, traditional green garland, fresh winter blooms, and time with loved ones enhance the spirit and joy of the season. At Campbell’s Flowers, the best florist in Pueblo, we’re sharing tips for how to bring more comfort, warmth, connection, simplicity, and mindfulness into your holidays with hygge. Have you heard of it? Hygge is a Danish art form that has evolved into a new way to celebrate the holidays, warming our hearts and bringing us closer to our loved ones.
Ways to Bring Home Hygge This Holiday Season
Create Cozy Corners with Fluffy Blankets & Fresh Blooms
Nothing says “I’ve mastered hygge” like your favorite cozy nook, decorated with seasonal decor or childhood memories, wrapped in layers of soft throws, with glowing lights overhead, and a gorgeous floral arrangement nearby. Whether you’re reading, journaling, or just scrolling in peace, this is your sanctuary. Light a cinnamon-scented candle and cue a playlist of gentle tunes. You are officially entering your cozy era.
Enhance Your Home with Fresh Fragrances from Candles and Arrangements
Lighting a candle or displaying fragrant florals serves many purposes, especially when creating a festive environment. While the flame dances and crackles, or the flowers blossom, their fragrances capture our attention and even transport us to the holidays of our past. Hygge reminds us to be mindful and find delight in the smallest of moments, such as appreciating the beauty of blooms or a flickering candle with sweet, sweet scents.
Display Favorite Holiday Decor, Including Festive Florals and Greenery
Sometimes, decorating for the holidays can feel more like a chore than a source of hygge. In the spirit of hygge, it is essential to remember that displaying your holiday decor should make you feel warm and fuzzy. Whether it’s swapping the timeless with the trendy (or vice versa) or creating a new tradition of decorating your home with family and loved ones, find a new motivation for putting up festive garland, winter blooms, and fun decor that lights your soul this year.
Bring Home Seasonal Stems for Yourself
Winter flowers, in colors of red and white with heaps of lush greenery, are an excellent way to inspire us to feel hygge in a fresh way. Their beauty is sure to enhance any space, adding mood-boosting, comforting, and peaceful elements that evoke a natural feel. In addition to their sweet, subtle fragrance, they capture our attention and urge us to, quite literally, stop and smell the flowers. As our bouquet invites us to be present, mindful, and experience the simplicities of our day with gratitude, we find hygge.
Enjoy the Company of Loved Ones
The last piece to bringing hygge home for the holidays is sharing the season with loved ones. Inviting friends and family into your home to share in the little joys this time of year will ensure your home is bursting with love, laughter, and comfort. Throughout the holiday season, enjoy the company of those near and dear to your heart as you create memories and establish new traditions to look forward to year after year.
Whether you’re enjoying quiet nights by the fire or hosting holiday festivities, creating a hygge-filled home is sure to make this winter the best yet. Don’t forget to bring home the perfect winter blooms from the area’s best florist, Campbell’s Flowers.
