Winter is in the midst of us. The days are short, the evenings long, and there is nothing better than warming yourself up with a delicious homemade meal. Whether you are cooking for yourself, your family, or friends; food becomes even more special when served on beautiful handmade tableware. It adds warmth and ambiance to the setting and makes every dish special. Here are three winter recipes that are perfect for the coziness of this time of year.

The holidays are a time filled with warmth, connection and coziness. But often the related hustle and stress also enter the mix: buying gifts, putting together menus, hosting guests ... it can also quickly become overwhelming. Fortunately, there is another way.

The holidays are almost here again, and especially if you're having some people over, you might really want to put in the work. For me, an appealing dinner table goes beyond just pretty tableware: it's about a warm, inviting setting. About an inviting table where guests immediately feel comfortable and at home.

It tells a story: that of the maker, of the time and attention that have been put into it and of the conscious choice to give something unique.

Autumn is a season that naturally invites us to turn more inward. As the leaves fall and the days grow shorter, we experience a change in the rhythms of nature. This is the ideal time to slow down and embrace slow living more. It's time to let go of our hectic lifestyle for a while and indulge in peace and coziness, both indoors and outdoors.
