Dear Reader, Remember hygge? The Danish concept of “a quality of coziness and comfortable conviviality that engenders a feeling of contentment or well-being” made its way to the United States a few years ago, and the trend resonated strongly in the worlds of crafts and DIY. Ever since, hygge-associated imagery—lit fireplaces, cups of hot chocolate, stacks of books, and knitted home décor—has inspired people to create similar spaces in their own lives in order to manifest that feeling of contentment. Another concept that comes from Scandinavia but hasn’t yet made the same splash in the United States is practiced on Friday nights in Sweden. The idea is fredagsmys, which translates to “cozy Friday.” The concept should be familiar—many people appreciate a relaxing Friday night at home after a busy week—but…

It was a big, early-twentieth-century house, red with white trim, with nothing but fields as far as the eye could see on one side and two similar residential houses on the other, the far side of a big lawn with swings and perfect climbing trees and some land for growing potatoes and carrots. We were renting the self-contained first floor from the old man who lived downstairs, and I remember vividly what the thick floorboards felt like as we crawled and danced across them, the cold air rising through their wide gaps. The sitting room still had the original wallpaper, a majestic-looking pat tern in forest green, and there was a big white fireplace next to which we had a couch—the family chill-out couch. Things were different then, of course:…
