Hygge at Home in 10 Steps

I'm Norwegian, and this is pretty much spot on! I would only add home-knitted wollen socks, and having soup or stew for dinner to warm you up from the inside. Having a conversation snuggled in a blanket with a hot beverage is great, and watching a movie with candlelight around the living room is magical. We do this year around, but it's especially important in autumn and winter <3

I'll have to skip the candles

I know one thing that's in opposition to Hygge! My brother and I are 69 and 71, and once our Mom died we chose to live together since we're both alone now. We also decided to move to Ohio and oh my gosh, the move is going to drive us bonkers. We are still unpacking and it's so hard. Fortunately, I have a nook in both our family room (where our fireplace is located) and the living room but we still have a ways to go. LOL, just waiting for the day when our home is in order and that Hygge feeling is everywhere.

This was a wonderful video....so nice I found you!

Living in Ireland it's normal in the autumn and winter time when it starts to get dark around 4 to come home get your pyjamas on put on the fire have a warm dinner like shepherd's pie or a hot meal and watch TV with a blanket and get nice and cosy with your cosy socks

Hygge is the art and lifestyle of home comforts. It could be a refreshing iced drink if you live in tropical area or hot coco up North.

As someone who lives in a developing country like India, I am jealous of all those people living up there experiencing things like hygge and cottagecore. I seriously want to live a life like this 🥺.

Hi there I really love your vibe and your tips thank you 🙏 so much

Awesome video!! ❤️ Ps: your voice reminds me so much of Blake Lively at the beginning!! 😄

Brasil...my friend.

Hygge plants in the afternoon light in my house is one of my favorite hygge moments for me! Working on adding some curtains as well to add to the hygge! So cozy!!

In fact, my home is Hygge, before I knew the existance of this word... actually, I have 9/10...
I have books, candles (I make my own), I have a (virtual) fireplace on my 2nd Computer Monitor all the time, I have plants, some Throws (loving it!), vintage objects (a Book from 1832 - "Victor Hugo, Notre-Dame de Paris" does it count? :D) / Standing Desk Magnifier / some small Statues, Ceramics for hot beverage, and wooden items...

The only thing I don't have, ahem.... a TIDY Space xD It's the MESS at home xD because I live in a TINY Space... a 35sqm apartment in the French Riviera, living in... ONE "living" room (the Main room is 25sqm, 1 small room for kitchen and another 1 small for Bathroom). This main room is my Bedroom, my Office, my BookNook, Video Games room, that's VERY small... to be Tidy ^^'

But I have the most beautiful view of the Cost. I see 180 degrees of sea and hills, when I open my window (my "window" is a double glazed door xD)

Thanks for this video! ;) ♥

I've always been intrigued by hygge but hadn't researched it much. This video helped a lot, thank you!!

Love these videos, I’ve been doing hygge actively for 10 years, I used to have a house full of stuff, wood, candles and cozy.
I’ve just moved house, and have decided to strip back a ton of belongings and keeping the white washed walls and go for a clearer house. No better time to do this than in a new place and a fresh start.
After cleaning my walls at the old place after years of candles (scary) I’ve decided to keep candle use to a minimum and filled the place with flickering battery candles. They’ve improved a lot of the years.

This is amazing! Now that I think about it, my home and my life have always been very Hygge!

It is a bit strange but funny to read Hygge outside of Denmark in a video like this. 🇩🇰 I'm Dane.🇩🇰 Descendant of vikings.😁

For some reason Ive always struggled to make my home as nice as I'd like it. I really need it to make me happy and secure, as I spend a vast amount of time at home.
Years ago I had 3 x 5' book shelves made, just to look homely, I dont even read much, But I still struggle to make them look as nice as I envisaged 🤔

Denmark is dark from October to March! But India is lit 300/365 days, so we have lots of natural sunlight, and no need to lit candles, it’s so lit in India 🇮🇳 🔥

I've been listening to this book. I love these ideas and I've been using them forever. Candles, little lamps, string lights, books, tea, nice blankets, plants, very nice!

Happy I found you today. Didn’t know of hygge but that’s what I’ve been trying to create in my home this week!

Just happened upon this video on a cold dreary day. Immediately feel happier and cozy! Subscribed!

This looks good, I'm more into Dutch gezelligheid though 😊

Hygge er sejer en dig

I live inbetween London and an Island in Sweden - my step kids are Swedish - and I love it here so much. We are surrounded by forests and the sea and every house in Winter have candles lit up and paper stars, like something from a fairytale. We use Ikea LED candles and they look almost like the real thing and I love how peaceful I feel here compared to London.

Living in Canada I've been practicing hygge all my life . One thing I've found helpful is having battery operated candles I control with a remote . I live in a tiny apartment and it gives me peace of mind as I like a lot of candles. I do have real candles that I only leave on my stove . I have a maple syrup scented candle and it smells so good ! 💕

I created a cozy nook in my bed and I never want to leave it.

You have a wonderful voice and perfectly hygge.

My husband and I are in the process of buying a home and I’ve been trying to find the name for what the vibe I picture is and this is it all the way. I’m in love love Hygge!

Being from ND/MN my ancestors are of course Norwegian/German and I didn't realize my home decor is already very similar to this!! I love it <3 but living in TX 20+ years I also love a mix of Latin style and color. It makes me happy.

Love your floor lamp! Can you please share where you bought it? Thanks :) !

Throws. There's throws everywhere in my house. Each seat for my couch has one. The dogs have their own. My own bed has a couple folded at the foot. I love candles and wax warmers. Sadly, not a fan of wool or fuzzy socks. They make my feet sweat. I should probably change the lighting situation though. We don't use lamps. Also, I love baking when it starts to get colder. A pot of tea with cinnamon sticks, cardamom, and cloves also makes your home smell so welcoming and cozy.

Watching from India and the idea of fireplace, blanket and hot beverage is making me to go somewhere in Himalayas 😁.. Loved your video..

I didn’t know that I’m living in a hygge style until watch your video 🥰 thanks for the content!

What's the song during the first 2 tips called?💗

I am 61 and this is very retro. Antique pieces handed down was common. And yes they do have stories! Making the most out of less was special and probably a function of not being able to afford loads of things. Without the internet Mom gave us the choice to play outside or help with housework! Perhaps not a less complex time but simpler in day to day living. Less choices! Nice vid.

I live in india, a tropical country, yet I felt so good watching this video 🙂 creating a Vibey, peaceful, comfortable, and inviting atmosphere at home is so important!!

you forgot cats. Cats are essential to hygge vibes :) I'm currently sitting in my tiny living room with a cozy blanket and my kitty purring next to me, watching the rain outside. This is my first apartment of my very own. I've lived with roommates or a partner since I was 18, but for the first time in my life I'm in a stable living situation, where I will move when I feel like it, not when someone else tells me to. For the first time in my whole life, I can finally settle in. I'm working on creating a home that feels safe and cozy, and stimulates a feeling of gratitude and joy. My apartment was already feeling pretty cozy, but adopting a stray kitty who is just as grateful to finally have a home as I am was the last piece of the puzzle :)

I have candles in my room.. And warm tones like Brown and black splash of decor and furniture.. I have a plant in my room, a green garland around my farmhouse ladder that I need to buy fairy light’s in it.. I also have a khaki sweater hanging in my room on a thumbtack with my favorite necklace with a little fake lavender plant and hung it on the same thumbtack to give it a wonderful warm feeling near my blanket basket which I have a small farmhouse pillow in it on top that say s home sweet farmhouse.. I even have one other plant with at my ottoman that has that plant on it with a small farmhouse sign with a salt light!! I even have books in every corner of my room.. my room feels to welcoming and inviting and warm.. some times I’ll watch good witch or Gilmore girls on Netflix and grab me a cup of tea or coffee or cappuccino and turn on all my candles, sconces with the smell of hot maple toddy candle in my candle warmer to give it the best feeling ever!!!! I hardly leave my room especially at night

Thank you for this wonderful experience. Have a nice & relaxing week! 👍🎧😎
