Autumn officially arrives in less than one week which means it's time to embrace and celebrate the season's coziness! A wonderful way to do this is by creating a cozy environment for a day of crafting. These are a few ideas incorporating hygge into your creative process...
Musts for a Cozy Day of Crafting
1. Make your favorite warm drink
Are you more of a coffee or tea drinker? During this time of year you can throw apple cider or hot chocolate into the mix too! Make your favorite warm drink to sip as you're working on your creative project.
2. Put on a cozy playlist
Our publication, Bella Grace, celebrates the cozy moments in life. We even have a special annual edition called The Cozy Issue. We asked our lovely readers for their cozy song recommendations and created a playlist that you can listen to here!
3. Burn a candle
Scents can easily transform a room into a cozy haven. Light a fall candle like pumpkin, maple, or apple to add a magical glow and delightful aroma to your creative process. | Click here to peek inside our special edition Candle Issue
4. Hang string lights
Speaking of a magical glow, it couldn't be a better time of year to adorn your space with string lights -- the ultimate hygge decoration.
5. Bake your favorite treat
As you're working away on your craft, make sure there is a delicious treat baking in the oven. This will add to the yummy aroma in your home and give you something to look forward to!

Great list! I might add an autumnal mood board in my studio as well.

Thank you for the wonderful suggestions. Please be sure when you string lights in your work area that they are safe; approved by whatever the agency is that makes sure they aren’t dangerous. A friend had a habit of buying the cheapest decorations and lost his life when one started a fired in his home. I don’t want to be a downer, but I never would have thought something like that could happen.

I like to craft by a window and open it if possible to hear morning or evening sounds. From Diary of a Mindful Nature Lover
