There’s nothing quite like curling up on the couch with a blanket and binge-watching your favorite movies or television shows.

Make it extra special by inviting friends to join you or watching a series that you can discuss together.

start a book club

Winter is a fantastic season for reading, and what better way to enjoy it than by starting a book club?

Gather friends who share your passion for literature, choose a book to read together, and meet up to discuss it over warm drinks and snacks.

This encourages you to read more and fosters more profound connections with those you share it with.

plan a cozy escape

If you’re looking for a change of scenery, consider planning a cozy winter getaway.
 
A short trip can provide a much-needed break from routine, whether to a cabin in the woods, a beach house, or a quaint bed-and-breakfast.
 
Spend your days exploring the area or simply relaxing with a good book by the fire.
 

volunteer or give back

The winter season is a time for giving, and volunteering can be a fulfilling way to spend your time.

Consider helping out at a local shelter, participating in a community food drive, or organizing a winter clothing donation.

Not only will you make a positive impact on those in need, but you’ll also feel a sense of warmth and gratitude in your heart.

enjoy a winter bonfire

If you have outdoor space, consider hosting a winter bonfire.

Gather with friends around the fire pit, roast marshmallows, and share stories under the stars.

Wrap up in blankets and sip on warm beverages while enjoying the crackling warmth of the fire.

Hi, I’m Danielle!

I am the designer, writer and diy’er behind this blog. I enjoy decorating my home for practically nothing by doing most of the work myself, finding new and imaginative ways to make it beautiful and by watching for killer sales. I find humor almost anywhere and can laugh at myself through it all. I have learned that most projects don’t go exactly as intended, but can be more beautiful than the original plan.
