Cozy

Gratitude … what does that mean to you? Having just celebrated Thanksgiving we are hot off the practice of being mindful of all our blessings. I’m still wrapped up in the warmth of my family.

I’ve also been riding a wave of thankfulness for the incredible support I’ve been receiving for my Society6 Gift Shop.  Record sales have been happening … Thank You…Grazie Mille! You all have warmed my heart more than you can ever know!

This week brought another opportunity for gratitude as I was featured in this month’s “The Beautiful Life” over at Franky in NY Foundation for the Italian Americans! Patricia Geremia is one of Franky’s BFFs. She is a photographer and a blogger but - most of all - she’s a curious human being with an artsy way to look at life. Now, just in time for the Holidays, Patricia's art pieces are living a brand new life, transformed into tote bags, pillows, mats, trays... you name it.” See the full piece at Franky in New York and if you haven’t already signed up for their newsletter I encourage you to do so. Each month brings nuggets of Italian-American life that are fun, informative and inspiring. And there’s always a recipe in there too! Yum! Grazie mille friends at Franky!

As we enter the hustle and bustle of the Christmas season I encourage you, as I remind myself, to take the much needed pauses to be thankful. Find gratitude not just in the big things, but in the smallest of moments and gestures. One recurring theme around gratitude for me is being cozy. A small word that encompasses so much. Sharing cozy moments with those we love or enjoying cozy moments alone. This was really amplified by the pandemic, teaching us to value our get togethers in a much more enriching way, taking nothing for granted, as well as finding comfort in our lives while in solitude.

Friends and family describe my home as cozy when they visit and that is one of the best compliments I can receive. In choosing household items for my Society6 Gift Shop, I kept this in mind, wanting you all to have those safe, comfy, warm and cozy feelings.

To compliment the cozy in your life, I’ve added new photos and now have over 700 items in my Society6 Gift Shop! Woo hoo!

Throw pillows and blankets set a cozy and comfy theme

For me, art in my home brings cozy memories as well as inspires an eye towards new adventures

Serving trays add to a cozy breakfast in bed or for gathering nibbly treats to enjoy while watching our fav Christmas movies

There are so many more items over at my Gift Shop - over 700! I invite you to come on over and Shop with Me at PatriciaG. And I’d love it if you shared. Grazie!

Big Love and hope you’re enjoying all the fa la la, PatriciaG
