My warm cozy is my dog, Lily. She is the best lap warmer and snuggle buddy ever.
Oh my goodness. I am totally in love with that pitcher with the cow skull (maybe cuz my Dad has one that has hung in our basement or garage my entire life). Cozy - that would have to be my red fleece vest that I wear just about every day.
a hoodie and a chocolate and a cup of hot chai are the perfect things for a rainy, suddenly cold day like today. I love the Cozy Box and what's inside! What a great offer. I wish I loved closer so I could visit the shop. I have enjoyed your posts about it. Supporting local artists and giving a place to gather.
I have a few things to keep me cozy! In my home would be a hot bath, a warm fire and a hot cup of tea! Now outside of the home my gloves and always a fun scarf!

My Sherpa Knit blanket by the fire with a hot cup of coffee. Mmmmm.
I like to put on a soft sweatshirt and cuddle up on the couch with my son's baby blanket (that my sister made for him). He isn't a baby anymore (he's 9), so it isn't like I'm leaving him out in the cold! Hahaha!
Woolly socks, long johns and a warm scarf are my warm uniform/companions/best friends throughout the cold months here in northern Vermont. Everything else can change, but those three never do...I have to make an effort to let them go when it finally warms up in the spring! The gallery looks so cool, I really enjoyed seeing its evolution through your photos.
