This is a lovely Scandinavian crafting and recipe book for the holidays. Think Martha Stewart but more frugal, green and friendly. 🙂 The book features all kinds of projects like making a homemade wreath from found branches and bits of other things, making the most decadent hot cocoa, etc. There are chapters for decorating, recipes, gifts to make, etc. There's definitely a focus on repurposing and using found objects, like there are darling little gnomes and such made from knit hats, the fingers of knit gloves and old sweaters. She even shows you how to make darling little reindeer from your twig scraps when you make the birch wreath. I'm not sure that I would go to the same level of effort that she does, but it inspires me to want to. There are also lots of lovely photos throughout, especially for the project instructions. Recommended.

I read a temporary digital ARC of this book for review.

A gorgeous book stuffed full of cosy projects and foodie treats which would make a great addition to any collection of Christmas books.
The projects are very well explained and so infinitely 'doable ' without the need for expensive equipment or complicated techniques.
I have several in mind to try for Christmas this year.
This book would make a delightful early Christmas present for anyone who enjoys a hands on approach to preparing their end of year festivities.

This was a very cute "how-to" book with a variety of Scandinavian-style Christmas crafts, recipes, and gift ideas. It is similar to other craft books with a focus on Hygge. I enjoy making homemade gifts and will definitely try the recipe for the Christmas tea and attempt the felt pompom coaster. Some of the crafts looked a little cheap, but they might be fun to try with children. Overall, a 4 star read.

I am looking forward to making many of the items detailed in this book, especially the advent candle, Every year I struggle to buy and advent candle that goes with my decorations, well not this year as I am all ready to decorate my own.
I would highly recommend this book for those who want to make their own unique decorations especially this year when the cost of living is so high, as the hanging star decorations can be made using bits of paper that can be picked up quite cheaply, but will look so amazing.

I received a copy of this book through NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.

This book is around 3.5 stars for me.

There are some fun ideas in this book for celebrating Christmas the Scandinavian way. This book includes information on foods, crafts, gifts, and games. There's small projects throughout the to do things like show you how to make your own wreath, make a scarf, and prepare sweet desserts to share. The measurements and weights for ingredients and materials are in grams and cm. The section on games is especially interesting! I liked learning new Christmas games.

Overall there was nothing in this book that blew me away, but it has some interesting tips.

I’ve put this book on preorder as I need a physical copy!i love Christmas and I love crafting and I can’t wait to work my way through this book!!! Decorations, gifts and edible things are all in here to make! Wonderful book!
