Living Cozy - Issue #17: The Holiday Edit

Hi! 

Welcome to issue #17 of The Home Catalog. 

Winter is in full swing — we even had a little snow in the UK this morning. And at this time of year, the one thing the internet is awash with (aside from everyone's Spotify Wrapped updates) is gift guides. So to save you a little time, here are three of the best I've spotted: 

• Snaxshot: This curation features a little bit of everything from home decor to the latest spirits and beverage brands. 
• Girls Night In: From gifts to keep you cozy, and stoking fillers (under $25), to the perfect guys night in ideas, this guide has gifts for just about everyone. 
• Sidekick (by Morning Brew): For the friend that loves a Netflix binge, the budding chef, or the wellness enthusiast, Sidkick has curated gifts they’ll absolutely love.

Spotted any great gift ideas or guides?

Thanks! 

P.S. If you're looking for something to watch this weekend, Floyd has put together a list of design-focused documentaries.

Spoken Flames Acts of Resilience

This special Limited Edition holiday candle ($39) was launched in partnership with NYC’s largest volunteer organization, New York Cares — with 100% of the profits going directly to the organization.

The all-natural coconut wax blend candle is inspired by the essence of a New York winter and scented with notes of apple, tree sap, and spice. Spoken Flames is aiming to raise $5,000 for New York Cares with this release. Buy the candle here.
