Bound to be Creative is ready for you in 2022, but first….Let’s Get Cozy in the New Year! After settling in to the Holiday Season and then again into the New Year, it’s been a whirlwind of meals, movie watching and fun at the house. In the next couple weeks some my children will trickle back to their lives and meals will resume to their normal recipe size.
Get Cozy in the New Year
While the season can bring a feeling of family coziness and gratitude, it also can bring about angst of the new year, change and a bit of seasonal unhappiness. I feel a bit of these emotions settling in and perhaps it’s just a feeling of “Holidays are over and life resumes” sorta thing, but I think it’s important to recognize that not all things can get cozy. As I ponder these seasonal feelings I allow myself room to:
do dishes…how I want to
watch a movie…on a Saturday afternoon
sew something handmade…for myself
make a list of chores…or not
go for a run…not for distance but for fresh air
Get Cozy in the New Year
It may not feel natural to settle in to the new year. It takes a while and doesn’t all happen at once. Getting cozy could mean so many things to different people. This house likes to watch movies, drink hot cocoa AFTER playing outside in the cold, (it tastes better that way apparently). We also like to window shop and take a little drive in a warm car.
We may fight change or be willing to embrace it or we feel like all the things need to change at once. This gal falls in between the cracks somewhere wanting major change and then wanting it right now! I lack patience to say the least.
How Bound Gets Cozy
Changing things up, both at my home shop and SHOP·TIQUE, spurs creativity and inspiration. Every year I try to switch things up a bit as it feels amazing, cozy and helps the juices flow for creating all those handmade hats for you! The home-shop got a little reboot last week and Valentine hearts made a cameo appearance among the winter decor at the store!
You Do You in 2022!
If it’s slipping on pair of cozy socks or hopping on the ski slopes, however you get your cozy on in the new year remember to be kind to yourself and be in the moment.
Bound to be….helping you ease into your year!
XO,
Bound to be Creative®
