The holidays are more than lights and garlands; they’re about gathering close with family, telling old stories, and decorating with the keepsakes that hold the heart of our childhood memories. It’s about experiencing hygge! Hygge is the Danish art form of creating comfort and connection and filling homes and hearts with pure happiness. Imagine a table filled with laughter, beautifully set with glowing candles and vases of seasonal winter flowers sent by a faraway loved one. At Jimmy’s Flowers, Ogden’s favorite florist, we’re inspired by hygge as every fresh seasonal bloom becomes a haven of joy where old traditions are honored and new ones are born.
Ways to Bring Home Hygge This Holiday Season
Create Cozy Corners with Fluffy Blankets & Fresh Blooms
Picture twinkling lights above, treasured holiday decor, your coziest blanket cocoon, and a vase of blooms brightening your little corner of the world. It’s the ideal vibe in a sanctuary that is all your own. Whether you’re deep into a true crime podcast or just watching the snow fall, this moment is all yours. Add a candle. Maybe some peppermint hot cocoa. You’re thriving and experiencing peak hygge.
Enhance Your Home with Fresh Fragrances from Candles and Arrangements
With their seasonal aromas, candles and flowers have a way of whisking us back in time. Suddenly, we’re children again, bundled up and breathing in pine at the Christmas tree farm, or perched on the counter as Grandma pulls a tray of cookies from the oven. Scents this sweet, paired with the beauty of blooms, make the holidays feel magical.
Display Favorite Holiday Decor, Including Festive Florals and Greenery
Fresh-cut tree, sparkly ornaments you’ve had since childhood, poinsettias popping off, and festive garlands doing the most might not be the trending topic on Pinterest, but it sure warms our hearts. Holiday hygge isn’t about looking perfect but about feeling at home. Whether your vibe is cozy cabin core or maximalist sparkle, your decor should tell your story. If it makes you pause and smile (maybe even brings a tear to your eye), mission accomplished.
Bring Home Seasonal Stems for Yourself or Others
When the days are short and your motivation is shorter, treat yourself to the ultimate pick-me-up of seasonal flowers. A bunch of winter blooms in cozy colors is like a love letter to yourself or loved ones, with their soft, soothing, and totally uplifting petals. Place them where you’ll see them often, or send them to faraway family, and let each glance be a little reminder of joy, beauty, connection, and peace.
Enjoy the Company of Loved Ones
The holidays aren’t about the biggest gift or the most Instagrammable table setup; they’re about slowing down and leaning into the warmth of being together. Whether you’re swapping stories over cocoa, baking something sweet and yummy, or sharing a meal beside a bouquet of fresh seasonal blooms, it’s all about those soft, simple moments. The best memories are made when you’re fully present and embracing hygge.
At Jimmy’s Flowers, we live for soft lighting, festive florals, and spaces that feel like holiday dreams. Because when flowers are in the mix, your home feels as good as it looks.
