Spending New Year’s Eve at home with the family, wrapped in comfy clothes and gathered around an outdoor firepit, holds a unique allure for me. At this age staying out til midnight doesn’t hold the charm that it used to (although I am all about going out for an early dinner or show and getting home before the masses head out). There’s an undeniable charm that resonates with warmth and togetherness in the simplicity of this setting, where the crackling flames cast a gentle glow on my family. The comfort of a t-shirt that reminds me of a favorite destination and the coziness of the fire create an ambiance that encourages genuine connection and reflection.
Sharing favorite foods and drinks in this intimate setting adds a touch of personal delight, turning the evening into a sensory celebration. As our favorite songs play in the background, memories intertwine with the melodies, creating a tapestry of shared experiences. It’s a haven of tranquility, a sanctuary to welcome the New Year surrounded by the people who matter most, my friends and family, in an atmosphere that effortlessly blends relaxation, joy, and the promise of new beginnings.
Comfortable Memories
Everyday California
I’m an East Coast Girl with West Coast Vibes. I love the comfortable classic, California style. The laid-back, lifestyle really suits me and this ultra-soft tri-blend tee features a version of the legendary California Flag on fabric so soft and comfortable you’ll never want to take it off. It’s perfect for any day or night when you want to genuinely be yourself.
Crafted to give you a relaxed fit, yet slightly tailored, that pairs perfectly with your favorite bottoms. It’s the perfect casual shirt that feels great and turns heads.
Whether poolside, at the beach, or like tonight sitting by the fire. This funky Brutus Towel brings me back to the 70s when I was in high school! Not just a fashion statement, it’s also extra soft and ultra-absorbent. Perfect for your next retro beach day or tossed over your legs to ward off the New Year’s chill in the air – now there’s no excuse for not lounging in style!
Wrap the Little One
Les Enfants Muslin Collection
The entire family needs to celebrate this night and that includes swaddling the little one in a soft muslin blanket as you hold them tight. This premier Sweden-based brand makes its blankets from 100% bamboo, manufactured mechanically, with minimal environmental impact, their muslin provides a soft and smooth feeling against the baby’s skin, described by many as silk or cashmere-like, and gets softer with every wash making it the perfect blanket for cuddling into the New Year.
The delicately woven, breathable fabric features a lightweight weave that helps to keep the baby cool on hot days and provides warmth and comfort when it gets chilly. Bamboo is proven to have antiseptic properties, it wicks away moisture better than most other materials and leaves your baby soft and dry.
I’ll light the Fire
Cutting Edge Firewood
This is why you bought a firepit! For nights like this when there is a chill, and the crackle of the wood and sweet smell of Hickory wood permeates the air. Cutting Edge Firewood specializes in kiln-dried firewood, making it easy to light, long-burning, and less smoky than traditional firewood you buy at the grocery store or roadside stand. The wood is cut fresh and undergoes an intense drying process so you can be confident that your firewood is free of pests, fungus, and mold. Each box of firewood includes everything you need for at least 4 unique fireside experiences, including fire starters, kindling, matches, and firewood. The ultra-premium firewood is packaged into boxes or racks.
Hickory Firewood Box—Hickory is their best seller for a good reason. Kiln-dried hickory firewood burns hotter and longer than any other firewood we offer. The signature aroma and crackle bring back positive memories from childhood and make it a customer favorite.
Oak Firewood Box—Oak is a timeless classic and popular hardwood firewood from one of America’s most iconic trees. Oak has a more subtle aroma than hickory or cherry. It burns hotter and longer than cherry but cooler and not as long as hickory.
Cherry Firewood Box—Cherry displays beautifully, burns less hot than hickory or oak, and offers a sweet aroma that will give your home a welcoming atmosphere for your family and guests on New Year’s. This Cherry Firewood is amazing.
