Hygge, PNW-style

Addie Davis

There is literally nothing I love more than getting cozy indoors during a rainy, fall day in the Pacific Northwest. If you’ve ever heard of hygge, this is that – but better. Here are some Seattle-inspired essentials to encourage your own celebration of “cozy” this autumn.

Blanket: Let’s face it – getting cozy always starts with the perfect, snuggly blanket.

• 8^th Gen Wool Blankets

Wine: Nothing says cozy to me more than a glass of red wine from the amazing Washington State wine region. Here are a few of my favorite vineyards:

• Alexandria Nicole
• Double Canyon
• Lauren Ashton Cellars

Tea: If you’re more of a tea-drinker, check out these Seattle-based tea shops:

• Steepologie
• Miro Tea

Candle: The definition of cozy.

• Seattle Candle Co.
• glassybaby

Cozy Socks: No further explanation needed, am I right?

• The Sock Monster
• Peony & Moss

Lighting, Furniture & More: In my house, must-haves for a cozy day are the perfect lighting, cozy seating, and decor. This Seattle-based shop brings the heat.

• Ballard Consignment

Music: The final touch to set the right tone.

• Record Shops in Seattle

Pro Tip: Many of these businesses offer online shopping – indulge a little and consider it a cozy hug from Seattle in your mailbox this fall.

Hopefully this inspires you to embrace a little PNW hygge wherever you are!
