As a broke college student, this basket is gonna save my cozy time allowance😂❤ definitely need this after finals!

[@hollycarlile2331]

As a teacher that puts off a lot of hobbies until summer break, a basket would be perfect for summer mornings. So many times, I put so much pressure on myself to do everything instead of just enjoying the moment. I end up with choice paralysis more often than I would like to admit… a basket would help provide peace and clarity to each day ❤

[@mad_hatt]

I love the basket idea! Just gathering things around the house to decide your afternoon and framing it as shopping sounds really fun!

[@Miss_Annlaug]

Me too! Am sooo doing this

[@savannahp5884]

I actually never heard of the cozy lifestyle until I stumbled on your channel, and honestly it has helped me alot to realize how truly important it is to take care of yourself. I've always tried in a way, but have felt selfish for spending money on myself or taking a whole day to do things that weren't "productive". I think the hobbies/cozy basket idea is a brillant idea! And it also helps for those of us who have any guilt or uneasiness about taking the time to heal and nutrure ourselves.

[@dawnsherie]

I have a tray that I use instead of a basket for gathering relaxing items to set the mood for cozy time. I gather a book, journal, my nature inspiration cards, a fun light source, my fav lip balm , a snack and drink! I also gather my Kalimba, fav picture of BTS and put on my go to oversized hoodie and get comfy on my bed or couch, surrounded by pillows and blankets! Lastly, I put on a fav cozy murder mystery, fantasy or Godzilla on the TV and just settle into a cozy day 💜 it is the best!

[@Em-fz5uh]

It sounds like haven! Do you have any recommendations for murder mysteries?

[@dawnsherie]

@@Em-fz5uh hello! My favorite cozy murder mysteries to binge watch are Midsommer Murders, Rosemary and Thyme, Father Brown, Vera, Agatha Christie’s Mrs. Marple, and for a bit more chilling and atmospheric, Hinterland and Broadchurch! Usually these shows are on paid streaming sites like Acorn Tv and Britbox but I believe Midsommer Murders you can stream (with commercials). I found a KZbin page that has uploaded a lot of murder mysteries, full episodes and seasons, called Murder Mysteries. Happy sleuthing 😃

[@tamahtaylor348]

I agree with your list. The British do mystery and crime the best!

[@maryanne7161]

I m sorry, i googled nature inspiration cards, but it didn't show me much by way of explanation. Therefore, i may sound irritating and i've already apologised for it, but, could u pls tell me what those are?

[@dawnsherie]

@@maryanne7161 hello. The particular ones I have, I got them from an organization I hike with called Outdoor Journal Tour. In their shop section on the website, it’s called Nature Mediations Deck.

[@SunArts918]

I love your cozy hobbies, I am recovering for a very long burn out, depressive episode and you inspire me to make a little creative hobbies basket, and I try to do some everyday, it help soooo much with my anxiety. Thanks for sharing and inspiring other with your beautiful energy

[@rosabaker1092]

I had such a rough week and I'm currently broke, so I'm using the basket idea this weekend to treat myself. Such a good idea!

[@bro.that.is.adorable.2633]

Chila being fidgety when you were trying to read was hilarious

[@cutiez4eva1]

LOVED this video and especially the focus on not needing to spend money or support consumerism! I find the gaming space can have too much focus on buying stuff sometimes

[@lskatchoo]

This is brilliant!! I did something similar with a special bookshelf-it has all my recent bought but not read books. It’s like a mini independent bookstore.

[@Nirrini]

Your felt animal was not scary at all! It’s super cute and very pretty 🤎✨ well done 🌹

[@user-ps7pu4jz2q]

Ur hobby vlogs are always a total mood booster! Thank you! Have u ever tried painting by numbers btw? I mean sets where paints and everything are included. It can be a bit tedious, but fun!

[@CozyK]

I want to try one for sure!!

[@mrshawk2018]

This is so cool!! In the book, Refuse to Choose, a book all about people who have too many interests and lack a clear direction in life, the author also mentions have this kind of hobby or project cart, but having a basket is so much cuter :) Love that this concept is gaining traction IT WORKS!!

[@peridottea91]

Legends & Lattes is a fantastic read. I've reread it a few times and it's just such cozy vibes!!!!

[@molliee5183]

It’s so good but the problem is that there aren’t many other books like it so now we’re stuck craving more books that don’t exist yet 😂

[@rosarioreads]

@@molliee5183 I think there's a sequel coming out later this year!

[@jessicawalton4690]

It looks like the Coffee Talk game!

[@ikabikaboo]

@@molliee5183 I went to a cosy fantasy panel a few weeks ago and wrote down as many as I could. L&L was featured, but there were a lot of suggestions: Eva Evergreen, Semi-Magical Witch by Julie Abe (middle grades fantasy) A Wizard's Guide To Defensive Baking by T. Kingfisher (fantasy) The House in the Cerulean Sea by TJ Klune (modern fantasy) The Very Secret Society of Irregular Witches by Sangu Mandanna (modern fantasy) The Long Way to a Small, Angry Planet by Becky Chambers (SF) A Psalm for the Wild-Built by Becky Chambers (SF) Flowerheart by Catherine Bakewell (fantasy) A Coup of Tea by Casey Blue, Book 1 of the Tea Princess trilogy (fantasy) Mindtouch (The Dreamhealers Book 1) by MCA Hogarth (SF)

[@molliee5183]

@@ikabikaboo thank you so much for this!!

[@Meganharley321]

Omg! Legends and Lattes is a must! I discovered it randomly back in December and have been hooked ever since. It reminds me a lot of Coffee Talk too. I also found out the author is coming out with a sequel called bookshops and bone dust

[@abbymunro2507]

I was going to say this about Coffee Talk! 😍🤍

[@divatashi]

Yesssss to saving money! Love my self care but I don’t need to keep buying new things while I haven’t even finished using my current hobbies and self care items!

[@aleciaproctor5632]

LOVING the concept of a free time basket! I think I’d set one up before work so I could look forward to it when I got home.

[@sunpi]

1 min in and i already know your gong to influence me to spend my money Edit: you’re now allowing me to save money and shop in my own house. Wow

[@CozyK]

LOL

[@dsims868]

This would be a great gift for friends. Love this! Thanks for inspiring us!

[@MsPynkPynk]

This is a wonderful idea. This video came at the right time. Im stuck in bed for a few days and grabbed all my cozy stuff to be near me. You're videos are so relaxing ❤

[@megthemage]

This is a great idea!! And eventually the basket would become a little signal tot eh brain of like "oooo cozy time!" Lol love it

[@heyyitsfaithn]

The sheep took me out😂😂really enjoyed this video❤ and I'm looking forward to start my own free time basket, it'll catch on!

[@The_Simstress]

You inspired me to begin felting in one of your other “cozy hobby” videos. I ended up investing a great deal of money into a collection of needle felting supplies and I love it so much. ❤️ It takes a lot of stress away.

[@CozyK]

aww yayy, i’m so glad!!!

[@stephaniemitchard]

This is the best idea EVER, I told my husband about it and he was so hyped as well, so we have both got a basket now and I did my first one yesterday and it was SO MUCH FUN. Cant wait to curate another.

[@virgo_vampire]

i got legends and lattes a little bit ago and i still haven't started it! this gives me a little more motivation to actually read it, rather than it just laying around looking cute on my shelf. i'm so guilty of trying to read multiple books at the same time and not being able to focus on any of them, definitely going to try this method of "shopping my home" rather than just picking up a new book whenever i'm at target lol

[@user-iv6yv5lz8v]

Watching you read them magazines, you are going to be the cutest old lady!!😂🥹

[@DahliaElizabethRose]

i love the basket idea! i just finished all my finals so i’m gonna try it right now.

[@liz6245]

The treat basket is a fantastic idea! I may make something similar to avoid scrolling on social media. When taking a break, I don't pick up hobbies or activities that bring me joy, but go straight on my phone (maybe also because I'm feeling guilty about taking breaks), assuming it would take me too much time. Having a basket of already selected treats in my studio could motivate me to go and grab something instead of looking for my phone Also, who else like me is UNABLE to throw away cute package boxes? I could make endless treat baskets with them

[@claremiller9979]

I have so many boxes. They do get used eventually, and stuff like this is how! I also use boxes from electronics and whatnot for organising drawers

[@rachelchanel7941]

Girl I LOVE this idea of a basket! I'll have to do the same for after work. It will probably also encourage me to finish all of the books I've accumulated but haven't started, or books I haven't finished, lol. I might have to use a bag because I don't think I have a spare basket hanging around. Oh well, we'll use what we have.

[@hmjohnston12345]

I love this so much! We need another cozy basket day soon 🫶🏻

[@niamc2301]

What a fab idea! How many days have I come home from work, feeling totally drained, and then just scroll on my phone for hours only to feel guilty at bedtime that I didn’t do anything “I want to do”! Will definitely have the basket at hand for when I come in the door… maybe beside my coffee machine ☺️☕️🧸 Oh I might even put a little bit of lego in mine too! 🤩

[@CozyK]

yesss so truee!! perfect for decision fatigue!

[@magicalbooknerd]

Love the basket idea! Sometimes when I have free time I get so overwhelmed by all of the things I want to do that I don’t do anything 😅

[@CandiBookish]

I love this idea. Legends and Lattes is one of my favorite cozy reads

[@lisaj3556]

that feeling of joy when shopping is dopamine and it’s addicting 😂😂 this is such a clever idea to get that dopamine hit without spending cash 💕

[@shannonT3271]

I remember taking days like that many many years ago (obviously I'm from an older crowd😊). I'm going to do this very soon.

[@ninaj3662]

This is such a cute idea! I’ve been needing an excuse to finally use all the treat-myself things I’ve accumulated over time☺️

[@EternallyEmma]

Have you tried cross stitching yet? I think I've watched all your cosy hobby vlogs as I love them but I may have missed it if you have... If you haven't I feel like you'd love it! Your needle felting was so good and I'm tempted to try it now, it always seemed intimidating before.

[@CozyK]

I haven’t but it’s definitely on the list to try!

[@Rianneczy]

At first, I was a little sceptical about the basket thing. But as I was feeling a little bit down, I tried it out. It really helped to make me feel better, to collect all things I love and like to do in once place. It was a great day after all, so thank you ❤️

[@CozyK]

that makes me so happyy🥹🫶🏽

[@Kalavati.C]

Free time basket!!! Genius idea and so much fun. Thanks for sharing!!!

[@karenmunoz2311]

I love the basket idea

[@adriethealchemist]

“Hard day? Let’s go to Target.” This came for me personally. 😂😂😂

[@AlyciaBoutte]

"I got a creepy little sheep out of it"..I'm crying 😂. Your commentary is the best lol. This was so relaxing to watch!

[@katelandking9805]

Amazing like always!

[@alishareadsbooks]

What a great concept! Love the treat basket ❤

[@narkmoop]

Thank you for the idea!! I now have a cozy hobby basket and it has made me so happy to have a place for all my lil hobbies I enjoy!

[@cozymarissa]

This basket idea is so cute! I love it 🥹

[@jaebee75]

The basket is Life! Thanks for the idea!

[@Em-fz5uh]

Yay 😁 another cozy vlog videos ! I love these so much !! And perfect timing. I’m watching it while doing my own cozy hobby day 😍.

[@tuesdaytaylor6365]

I NEVER want your videos to end 😭

[@nope-mt6hc]

You should get a small wooden plaque thing and paint it however you want and mount the little felted lamb head for a nice decoration.

[@DecemberOreos]

Omg this is an amazing idea!! Love your channel and vibes 💜💜

[@dstiniemabrey8218]

Ahhh, this is brilliant! Thank you for sharing 💓

[@HelovesyouRach123]

I love these kinds of videos!

[@destinij8]

Loved this video‼️❤

[@LeslieMomma]

Thanks for the book rec! I added it to my list!

[@walkingexercise5375]

Love your cozy vlog videos! Great ideas for your self-care basket and snack basket.

[@rosarioreads]

The basket idea is so cute! The felting looks cute but also kinda creepy haha, the eyes look like they're staring straight into my soul 🫣😂 I've got Legends and Lattes on kindle and want to start reading it now!

[@Trippy_Space_Bunny]

I do this too though I have a beautiful large wooden bowl instead of a basket. It's very fun and actually gets me to use all that random stuff lol 💜

[@isabellamagnuson-lee308]

Hi Cozy K this weekend has been lovely 🥰 I have been enjoying the things I like doing I am going to have my second cup of coffee soon because coffee makes me happy 😃 and Cozy.

[@marleneskinner1702]

Love your videos. Thank you

[@1HeathersJourney]

Love the basket idea. I have a back injury and it's thrown off my usual ways of crafting and self caring and I will be creating one this weekend!

[@Profoundtruthss]

Thanks for the upload K and safe travels to Arizona 🍄💖✨

[@StardewAngela]

yessss I just sat down to eat breakfast im so excited

[@AudreyAdores]

These are my favorite kinds of days. Just enrichment time in my enclosure lol

[@ChillinWithRen]

Honestly i love the idea of a free time basket. Im gonna go ahead and steal it 🧡 lol thank you

[@rayliur]

Yay new vlog!!

[@V_nesserz]

This video is a whole mood. Great idea 🌿 😊

[@margaritavelazquez7437]

Loved the basket idea I will definitely try it later tonight for my me time 🤗🌹

[@TeexMack]

that cozy basket is such a great idea. as soon as i get home from work i’m doing it lol. great video ❤

[@CoralMonty]

Perhaps add a little crown to the "creepy" lamb, for a Cult of the Lamb vibe? Love your videos!

[@jessicaswenson864]

I just tried felting for the first time a couple months ago, isn't it SO FUN?! I love this basket idea. Sometimes I need a day like this but actually don't feel like leaving the house to spend money. This is brilliant. ❤️

[@lizzipooh4]

The basket idea is so good. Definitely gonna consider it ❤

[@nataliatrevino7289]

Hi Kennedy!💖 after months of stress and depression I am slowly getting back to doing self care and cozying up with a book or a cozy game or a small crochet project as a form of relaxation, so I've been gravitating towards your videos a lot. Have you played Spiritfarer and Cult of The Lamb? They are both super cozy, even tho Cult of The Lamb can be quite difficult sometimes lol. It's super cute so it compensates for the frustration.

[@annakatherine2891]

This was a great video idea, would definitely enjoy seeing more free cozy care videos!

[@Igobymeliss1220]

You’re seriously the cutest!! So creative.Thanks for this awesome idea.

[@Shanice_Dani]

As someone who struggles with realizing or acknowledging when I need a break or cozy time, this is really helpful. Also bc of your gaming content I have also gotten more into cozy games and viewing gaming differently. It is like some days I don't have to play these stressful games I can run around in Stardew and make fun of Smelliot and relax.

[@CozyK]

SMELLIOT😭😭 Lolol i love thiss for you though!!🫶🏽

[@dasharodina4873]

I love this video! Your idea is genius I can’t wait to try

[@HelloDrTaj]

I have a hobby basket as well and love it

[@fabiollasofia]

i love the free time basket idea 🥺🫶 i have like 4 books that i need to read and games to finish etc. Im doing this forsure ❤❤ bc its like every few days i can do a little of what i like and it doesn't feel super overwhelming

[@justacookiechip3728]

I want to try the basket technique! Your KZbin videos make me so happy!

[@ft.malina]

This is such a cute idea!!

[@vernlew13]

Sis, you came through on time with this video!!! ❤

[@Gna_d54]

I literally just read Legends & Lattes this weekend and pre-orded the second one already.. it's about a bookshop 😍

[@kristaward402]

This is a great idea. I think I will try this sometime ❤

[@carolinesromancereads]

What a cool idea for a video! Definitely going to be trying this!

[@Hannahbug101]

I just finished Legends and Lattes and it was a really nice palate cleanser after the Throne of Glass series. I love these hobby videos!!

[@sacharymateo1710]

i really love your video, you had showed me the way to start finally living my cozy life♥

[@booksandwoollysocks]

this is such a good idea! i'll definitely be doing it, I'm already thinking of what i'll put in the basket!

[@keirajoyanderson]

I love the basket idea! I'm gonna try it!

[@readsandeats2263]

What a great idea. So glad that you had a good relaxing day.

[@findthestrawberry]

I like this idea to use when you've had a hard day and you feel like doing nothing. Everything is too hard, there's nothing to do etc. Then you have your basket of stuff to do already waiting for you.

[@CozyK]

yesss!!! so true!

[@Klara_with_a_K]

I just read Legends & Lattes! I flew through it! It’s so good! I can’t wait for his next book to come out

[@fa3ryg1rl1]

Legends and Lattes was so good! And if I love a coloring book, I definitely get a second copy and do it again differently :)

[@CozyK]

ok i feel validated - will be buying again😌

[@ej6380]

I love this concept! I’m definitely gonna try out my own free time basket… but first I must buy a free time basket hehe🤭

[@softthistlegaming]

only thing missing there for me are my journal and some oracle cards

[@poppysreads]

this is the cutest idea ever!! loved this video ✨🫶🏻

[@lckypckt3856]

You’re so adorable 😂 Love this idea

[@CozyGameNight]

The “there’s something in those eyes” got me hahaha I never knew I needed mr baahbraham sheepcon hahahahahaha Also what a lovely cozy vlog 💖 I hope you have a great vacation time ✨

[@etheric1]

I tried the free time basket and it was so fun. I think more than the shopping around thing for me it was just so nice to have all of my little activities out where I could see them and grab and put back what I felt like using was super nice. Def gonna incorporate into my routines.

[@blackrose00]

My husband and I started needle felting because of your video! We found a new hobby to do together as a couple and we absolutely love it!😊❤ Keep bringing more cozy content. 💞
