Winter Weekend Cozy

Staying cozy on winter weekends is a MUST (especially now, since the temps around here have finally started getting into the 30s!) Because I’m a huge fan of cozy (and weekends), I figured I’d throw together a little list of my favorite things that help make my winter weekends a little bit warmer these days! 🙂

>> HOT TEA <<

I’m a major fan of hot tea, and to me, it tastes better when it comes out of a pretty tin! Currently I’m on a green tea kick and am really loving this Ambessa tea that I found at Target! Winter Weekend Cozy // THE HIVE

>> CHRISTMAS MOVIES <<

I LOVE a good Christmas movie. I actually start watching them in… well… August…. Just to get a jump start on enjoying the spirit of Christmas! But they’re especially awesome in a warm bed with family and a hot beverage when it’s cold outside! Wouldn’t you agree? There is nothing cozier than watching Kevin McAllister hug the pigeon lady in Central Park at the end of Home Alone 2 (this scene actually brings happy tears to my eyes!) with a hot bev and the ones you love!

>> SOCKS <<

I’m pretty sure that part of the definition of the word cozy mentions soft, warm socks. Yep, Webster’s agrees! For the ultimate winter comfort, I’m not home without some lovely socks like these handmade beauties from Arco Avenue on my feet!

>> FAMILY <<

As mentioned before, family makes cozy MUCH cozier!!! Especially now that I have a brand new little snuggle bug with whom I get to cuddle! Price and I count our blessings constantly for this sweet and handsome little ray of sunshine!!! Can’t wait to share more pictures of our newly expanded party of three in the coming weeks! 🙂

(And of course, we can’t forget about the sweet pups! They’ve been the ultimate cuddle monsters for years!!!) Winter Weekend Cozy // THE HIVE

>> OUR ALL WHITE BED <<

For some reason, white is the most inviting color to me! Perhaps because it’s just clean, easy, pretty, and welcoming. I love our simple all white bedding, even though it has taken a beating over the years since we do spend a lot of time snuggled up in there! Parachute Home (an awesome bedding line) has an alternate down duvet insert that I’ve been eyeing that would take our white linen duvet from lumpy looking to much smoother and prettier. (Ah-hem… Santa, baby?) So… Maybe by this time next month our bed will be even MORE inviting! 🙂 Until then, though, I’m happy with what we’ve got.. lumps and all!

So that’s how I like to stay cozy on these cold winter weekends! How do you achieve the ultimate coziness?! I’d love to hear!

I hope you have an awesome weekend and are enjoying the Christmas season and what it stands for!
