    Thanks a lot for these cosy inspirations.
    And . . . . I love to be lazy and just sit near the fire gazing in the flames and drift away into . . . .
    Sending you sweet hugs on this rainy day

    My Christmas present last year from my daughter-in-law was 12 books wrapped in brown paper with the month written on them and a small design as a clue to what the book was about ,so far I have read none of the 12 before I think she is doing it again this year. The best part this from a girl who does not read novels at all. So lots of love in the present.

      Oh, wow! It's such a mindful and lovely present 😍 actually after watching the video my husband told that it's not right that I make and buy all the presents for myself without having any surprise element to my advent calendar, so now he is going to make his contribution 😁 and I'm so curious what books he is going to pick 😊

    Thanks for sharing this cozy vlog and yes I am also more into hibernation vibes during this grey-ish period of the year also with what is going on in the world gives me the desire to seek for a safe cozy place in my home for which I am very grateful but what a splendid idea to do these lovely project s as a "cheer me up" . I wish you a lovely week ahead .

      Thank you, dear Debora! Hibernation period is the right way to put it😄 it's exactly how I feel now. And you are right, with the awful events happening in the world, having a cozy home where we can get wrapped into a warm blanket and hide just for a short while from all the horrors feels like a blessing. I wish everyone in the world could have it❤️ I'm sending you my hugs and wishing you a peaceful week! And I hope that the light will always fight the gloom ✨❤️

    Your painting of the bookcase was stunning as were all your bookish items.I even have book earrings with little dragons hanging off them. The girl who made them printed a poem down very small in this case the jabberwocky and folded it into a book shape only about an inch high and less than half an inch wide she then made a cover for it before attaching a small bead at the top before the hook and hanging a small charm at the bottom. I only wish I had had the money to buy more than one set of earrings.

    Hi Xenia! 🙋🏻‍♀️🇺🇲 🍁🍂
    What a warm & cozy video!
    I love your idea for creating a personalized advent gift basket. 💡❤️✨🧺🎁
    I also love that your husband wants you to have some surprises too! 🤩❤️
    I've been looking for a good advent idea for the past year. I like yours but I'm very slow to do things. I think I will work on my 2025 basket through out 2024 - doing 2-3 gifts each month.

    Love your cozy bookshelf painting... Will you be selling a postcard version of it? And would you consider selling a line art version of it as well.
    I would love to buy one of each. I need small projects to paint. It would be so fun to have your postcard as a guide and a line art one to paint myself.
    Love, Hugs & Sparkles! ❤️🫂✨🍂🍁🌲🎄🕯️🎁

      Dear Brenda, that's a great idea to prepare your personalized advent calender during the year, so that you could have more time and do it in a relaxed manner😃 Yes, I'll absolutely add a postcard and a bookmark with my new book case painting. The printable line art is actually a great idea! Thank you for suggesting❤️ I'll try to do it as well, but I will probably add it to my shop a bit later, after the Christmas shop update😊
