Six letters are our thing. You can say a lot with six letters. As you slow down to enjoy the holiday season, our simple wish to you is to be warm. Warm in heart, mind and body. Warm to yourself and others. Grateful to have warm spaces and food, as you drink another hot toddy and enjoy the warmth of those around you.

With warm tones (which you’ll see more of from Swell Made Co. in 2020) and our signature six letters, it’s the perfect piece for spaces where you gather or get warm. Simply download it and print it for your own spaces. Need a last-minute gift for the holidays? Just print, frame and add a ribbon. Available in two sizes - 11x14 or 16x20, all you have to do is download it, print it at a local or online print shop and frame it.
15 Simple Ways to Feel Warm
Here are 15 ways to be warm over the holidays and well into the winter months.
Bundle up. Get outside and move. You’ll be warm in no time once you start walking (or running). Plus, being in nature will warm your soul. This holiday season, try a first day hike on January 1. What better way to start the new year?
Extend a warm heart. Be compassionate with family, friends and strangers. We could all use a little more warmth at this time of year.
Help those in need feel warm. Volunteer your time or donate goods/funds to an organization that helps vulnerable people get through the winter months and hard times any time of year.
Share a meal. Gathering around a table with warm food with family and friends is one of the greatest pleasures of the season and life. Keep it simple too. Pizza is warm. No need to fuss.
Be social. Simply spending time with friends and family has been proven to make people “feel warmer“.
Sip warm drinks. Tea, coffee or hot chocolate are all delicious.
Enjoy a bowl soup. Soup is nurturing and healing like nothing else.
Add ginger. Ginger naturally stimulates blood circulation to help you feel warm and it’s simple to add to teas and soups.
Read a book. One that warms your heart.
Get festive. Feel the warmth of a hot toddy or glass of wine. There’s always something to celebrate. Toast to the past and look forward to 2020.
Snuggle up on the couch. in your coziest clothes with a blanket to watch a movie with loved ones.
Take a hot bath. Or, shower! Add little luxuries like epsom salts or eucalyptus and stay a while longer. If you can visit one, a steam room or sauna is extra soothing.
Light a fire. Candles also count. Enjoy the warm glow.
Cook or bake. Keep it simple, but use the oven for added warmth in your home.
Keep your feet warm. Wear cozy socks + slippers around the house.
We’re taking a break to slow down and be warm with our own family and friends. Happy holidays to you!
