Denmark ranks among the happiest countries in the world. The Danish concept of hygge (pronounced: “hooga”) may offer a clue to part of their happiness. The word translates to “protected from the outside world” but has taken on a broader meaning when describing the concept of taking time away from the daily rush of life to be together with the people you care about or the pleasures that matter to you.
You can create a hygge-inspired home that brings warmth, joy, and a sense of comfort into your space. One way to cozy up your home into a hygge haven this winter is by incorporating flowers. The Danish concept of hygge centers around the simple pleasures that flowers can deliver.
Adding flowers to your home can shift the entire atmosphere, filling spaces with color, texture, and life. During the winter months, flowers remind us of brighter days and bring a hint of the outdoors inside, making each room feel more open and refreshing.
Flowers have a magical way of brightening up a room, enhancing warmth, and making any space feel more inviting. In winter, when outdoor colors fade, indoor blooms provide a refreshing touch of nature. Start by choosing soft, soothing flowers that add color and bring calming scents into the room.
Did you know that flowers are known to increase happiness and reduce anxiety? Consider roses or amaryllis to add a wintery yet elegant feel that’s aligned with hygge’s minimal, calming aesthetic. Our Hugs&Smiles Bouquet may be just what you need.
How to Create Hygge with Flowers
Where you set your flowers matters. Create a welcoming entryway with seasonal greenery and blossoms that greet visitors with warmth as they come in from the cold. In your living room, cluster small vases of flowers and Devil’s Ivy on coffee tables, shelves, or near your favorite reading nook to give your space a lived-in, layered look.
Try a beautiful centerpiece on your dining table using fresh blooms and a few candles for a simple but powerful combination that becomes the center of shared meals and gatherings.
For an easy DIY project, consider making a dried flower garland to drape along a mantel or staircase. Select hardy blooms like dried lavender or baby’s breath and intertwine them with twine or wire for a rustic, hygge-inspired decoration. You could also press flowers to create framed art pieces, bringing a touch of floral beauty to your walls.

The winter months bring on a season of rest for your outdoor plants, but it is also a season of rest for your indoor plants as well. Even though indoor plants do not have to experience cold temperatures, snow, and frost, the conditions for growing plants are still affected. This means you’ll need to make changes in caring for your greenery to keep it healthy without making these common mistakes.
Purchasing flowers for yourself can be just as healing as if you were giving them to a sick loved one. It’s nature’s way of providing you with a mood booster and helping you practice better self-care. To find the perfect flowers to boost your mood, check out Flower Works LLC.
