- You have a ‘real’ wood fire. It takes an age to cut and dry the wood but it
has the scent of nature. - You have an over stuffed leather and wood sofa which takes a layer of skin with it in sticky Summer time and is freezing in the Winter but it looks so traditional.
- You place candles absolutely everywhere and then realise you stopped bothering with them as a teen because they are actually quite high-maintenance and possibly dangerous when forgotten about.
- You have the thickest hand woven rug imaginable in your living room, which everyone constantly trips over.
- You decide with friends to only exchange presents which you have hand-made yourselves for special occasions. You realise just how time consuming crafts actually are and that you are really quite crap at them.
- You buy a new wide screen TV (which you’ve sort of needed for ages and which looked reasonable in the shop) only to find it looks utterly absurd in your newly Hyged home.
- You have a basket of blankets for people to snuggle under but because they are so neatly rolled everyone is to polite to actually use them.
- Lots of your friends are coming around so you’ve put on a spread consisting of convenient comfort food such as cinnamon Danish pastries but everyone is either going gluten free or watching their weight.
- You are incredibly pleased with your folk lanterns but with minimal lighting everyone trips over that damn rug.
- You realise knitting is a worthwhile hobby but you can only knit scarves and sofa throws as they are rectangular and therefor easy. You note that the throw constantly slides of that damn sofa.
- You provide a range of spicy comforting teas for people but the most requested is “Builders tea, white, two sugars. Cheers.”
- You decide that wearing snow boots and the Scandi print dressing gown you got in the Primark sale really is channeling the spirt of Hygge anyway.
