Hygge in a Box Fall 2022 🇨🇦
I should put a bowl of Halloween candy in my office in case anybody wants some.— Me, working from home. Alone. Simon Holland Fall’s here and it’s nesting time. Prime hygge time. As soon as the temperature starts to drop below oh, I don’t know, maybe 16°C 😂😂 I like to light some candles, make…

The Mother’s Day Box from Hygge in a Box 🇨🇦
Motherhood taught me just how far I can let myself go and still be okay with it. The first couple of months of motherhood are a blur but I do remember feeling like every time I ran into someone I was wearing the same stretched-out, spit-up-stained t-shirt.

An all-natural candle subscription service: Vellabox December 2021
We’ve reached that point in January where I start to feel embarrassed that we still have our Christmas tree up and yet apparently not enough to do anything about it (some years we’ve kept it ’til Valentine’s Day 😂😬). As much as I love the decorations and the twinkly lights, it’s scent of the tree…

The Hygge Holiday Box from Hygge in a Box 🇨🇦
Happy new year! 🎉 I hope you had a great holiday. I thought I’d share a couple of boxes between Christmas and New Year’s and logged on to write a few times but didn’t get any further than that. 😬 I really just needed the break. We’re back to online learning here in Ontario with…
