Unboxing the May Hygge Box Subscription Box
The May Glimmers Hygge Box is all about embracing the small, uplifting moments that brighten everyday life—those little sparks of joy that ground us and remind us to slow down. Whether it’s the scent of something warm in your cup, the feel of sunlight on your skin, or a few quiet minutes to yourself, this box was thoughtfully curated to help you notice and savor those gentle pauses. Each item is a reminder that simple pleasures are always within reach. Let’s take a look inside.
Blush Lotus Scented Candle
This candle is a sigh dressed in florals. At first light, it greets you with lychee, pear, and a crisp apple whisper—fruity, bright, and playfully elegant. Then it softens into peony and lotus, a floral breeze that feels like an afternoon nap in a sunlit room. Finally, it settles into the gentle hush of sugar and musk.
I’ve been lighting it during quiet reading hours, when the world feels too sharp and I need to be wrapped in something soft. It flickers beside me like a little promise: stillness can glow.

Foldable Daisy Picnic Mat
There’s something about daisies that makes you feel like everything might be okay. This foldable picnic mat, scattered with cheerful blooms, is your portable patch of peace—whether it’s on sun-warmed grass or inside beside the window on rainy days. Lightweight, water-resistant, and effortlessly foldable, it turns any moment into an invitation to linger.
I’ve tossed it in tote for impromptu park dates—with a book, a thermos of tea, and nowhere else to be.

Earl Grey Tea
A classic that never needs explaining. This Earl Grey is bold yet soft, full-bodied with that telltale citrus sparkle from bergamot. The sachets are generous, allowing the leaves to unfurl fully—releasing all their fragrance, all their comfort.
I steep a cup mid-morning, just before emails, and cradle it as I watch the steam curl up into the day. It grounds me before I get swept into it all.
Vanilla Fudge
Small and golden and wrapped in nostalgia—this fudge tastes like something your grandmother might have hidden in a tin for special occasions. Handmade in Scotland, it’s soft and buttery, with a sweetness that lingers like a melody. The wildflower tin is a keepsake all its own.
I have one piece after lunch, like a secret just for me. And maybe one more later, with tea. Because why not.

Kanji Floral Bud Vase
Minimal. Serene. Lovely in a quiet kind of way. This 3D-printed vase is a celebration of simple beauty—made to hold one perfect bloom, or even a sprig from the backyard. Inspired by Korean and Scandinavian design, it brings attention to small, living things that might otherwise go unnoticed.
I tucked a few stems of dried lavender inside and placed it on my nightstand. Now, every evening, a faint, calming scent greets me—like a lullaby in bloom. It reminds me that beauty doesn’t have to demand attention to be deeply felt.

Felt Mushroom Ornament
Pure whimsy. Hand-felted, soft to the touch, and charmingly offbeat, this little mushroom is a reminder that delight doesn’t have to be big. It just has to be.
It’s perched on my bookshelf, peeking out from between poetry and old journals. Every time I see it, I smile without meaning to.
The takeaway this month?
Joy doesn’t always arrive with fireworks. Sometimes it comes quietly—through a warm scent, a soft place to sit, a sip of tea, or a bit of fudge you eat slowly. The Glimmers Hygge Box is about holding space for those moments. About creating a life not filled with more, but more meaning.
Let this be your season of glimmers—of catching light in unexpected places.
And if one of those glimmers finds its way into your day, we’d love to see it. Share your cozy moments with us on Instagram @shophyggebox
