It\u2019s so easy to think that hygge is only something for the fall or winter months, but you can keep that cozy feeling going long after the days lengthen and the temperatures spike. \u201cWhat\u2019s hygge?\u201d<\/strong><\/em> Some of you might be asking. It\u2019s the latest craze sweeping the States, but the people of Denmark have been practicing it for some time. Simply put, it means creating a nice, cozy, comfortable environment while enjoying the simple, good things in life with the special people you surround yourself with.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Thoughts of coziness instantly evoke images of throw blankets and fireplaces, and staying indoors while it\u2019s blustery outside. Still, it\u2019s entirely possible \u2014 and quite easy \u2014 to add hygge to the summertime. A good tip is to switch out the word \u201ccozy\u201d for \u201ccomfortable.\u201d<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

2. Host an outdoor dinner party under the stars.<\/h4>\n

<\/h4>\n

<\/h4>\n

 <\/p>\n

4. Buy a hammock or a nice lounge chair.<\/h4>\n

 <\/p>\n

6. Adorn your home with fresh flowers.<\/h4>\n

<\/h4>\n

8. Take a barefoot stroll through your wet lawn.<\/h4>\n

<\/h4>\n

 <\/p>\n

9. Hang your laundry outdoors so it can dry in the warm summer air.<\/h4>\n

<\/h4>\n

 <\/p>\n

10. Open up your windows, throw the curtains back, and allow the gentle breezes to fill your home.<\/h4>\n
