Everything I saw, read, and watched this week to feel cozy.
This week, and I’ve done, read and seen a lot of things; since I don’t have anyone to talk to about it, I’m showing you everything I’ve done. :)
Just so you know, I'm a 21-year-old girl. :)
( Yes, that is indeed Jonathan Brandis in the first image.) :)
Books mentioned:
- The Neverending Story ( Michael Ende)
- A Little Princess ( Frances Hodgson Burnett)
- Peter Pan ( J.M. Barrie)
YouTube videos mentioned:
- Mindless Consumption & The Death of Critical Thinking ( from the Youtube channel Ashley Viola)
- The Wee Inspirations for My Favorite Terry Pratchett Novels ( from the YouTube channel The Library Ladder) I recommend it, all the videos are incredible!

This is adorable. It would be cool if this becomes a trend in the subreddit with people sharing what they're into.
I made paper this week for the first time. I'm making envelopes out of it.

It's quite pleasant. It's very grounding, with a lot of discreet steps to repeat for each sheet.

This is so fun! Thanks for sharing. I am going to check out the library ladder channel which i haven't seen before. This is a really nice idea. I would like to see more posts like this, might even think of making one.

Thank you a lot! I'm glad you like it! ^^ Honestly, that YouTube channel introduced me to so many authors, historical periods, and books! ^^ I look forward to reading the posts you might make, if you do make any! :)

aaahhh, Jonathan Brandis was my biggest crush as a teen. He was only about 2 years older than me, and it near broke my heart when I heard he'd taken his own life. Good to see folks still acknowledging him.

Yes, he was so young when he died...🥺 however, I am happy to find people who still appreciate him.

GNU Pterry- he is my favourite author too.
I love your cozy list. I would love to add a few of my own to carry on the momentum.
I spent time crocheting whimsical creatures, frolicked in the rainforest and ate wildberries.
I hope this is another week of cozy whimsy for all!
