& How to Achieve it!
What is Ultimate Cozy?
The question is easier said than done. For me, being cozy means sipping on a warm cup of coffee, nestled on my deep couch with a fire blazing, and either reading or watching something.
To achieve the level of ultimate cozy you desire you have to really experiment with what you like.
For example, on Instagram, I saw this girl with the same style couch as me tossing a thick comforter on the couch and a furry blanket on top of that. She then laid on top of those and covered herself with another comfortable blanket. The fireplace was burning, and Harry Potter was playing on her TV.
When I first saw it, I thought it was just nuts! I mean her entire bedding was on her couch! But then I took another look, I mean I had to it kept popping up on my feed and that was when it hit me.
That is one way to achieve ultimate coziness. Another is to hop on over and look at my Pinterest board, I’ve gathered cozy inspiration for you and me!
Alright, let’s get to it. Let’s talk about how you can achieve the Ultimate Cozy!
Would I try this girl’s level of comfort?
One day when the weather is just downright frightening. Or maybe when it is super cold. Or on a weekend when it feels right.
Any other time, my version of ultimate coziness is similar, but it’s a version of my own.
I talk about this more in my post “Unexpected ways to make your home cozier,” and from that, I learned that rugs do more than just quiet footsteps.
Ultimate Cozy for me and anyone & How to achieve it.
Signature scent
The first thing I like to do is find my signature scent. Of course, it’s vanilla and other times it’s something spicy or smells like winter. I tend to lean more towards warmer scents, while my husband likes sandalwood or cedar.
The right scent has so many effects on your mind and soul. It’s like a warm hug, and it strikes up warm memories such as the last time I lit that warm vanilla candle.
Wrap up in a blanket
Second find blankets or pillows (or both) that really comfort you, not just physically.
Sometimes, I use a weighted blanket and other times, I like to use my Unhide blanket. It all depends on my mood and how warm I want to be.
If you don’t have blankets you’re not living your best cozy life! I’m just saying.
With the right blanket, you could reach the Maxium-Cozy Effort you’ve been looking for.
Blankets are one of those things where you should consider spending a bit more, for quality and durability. As with anything be sure to do a little research before you buy just any blanket! I talk more about my favorite place to get blankets in my post “Your Guide to Cozy Bedding”
When it comes to achieving the Ultimate cozy surround yourself with the items and comforint trinkets you enjoy. Pillows, comforters, blankets, deep-set couches even curtains can help you to reach the kind of cozy you are dreaming of.
Need more inspiration?
Of course, you could head over to Pinterest, but Instagram is also a good spot to discover types of cozy.
If pillows or blankets are covered in your home, then think about books and movies, or even music. For me, it’s Pride and Prejudice, the book & movie. Or Harry Potter, the same books or movies. The point is to aim for the comfort you crave, the moment where you can say “AH!” and take that cat nap.
Deep dive into the comfy realm of cozy. You may think you know how to achieve ultimate coziness but really you’ve just scratched the surface.
