After five and a half years of creating a cozy haven at 185 Front St, Owego, Hygge Home has announced with heavy hearts that they will be closing their brick-and-mortar location by June 22. The decision to downsize was not made lightly, with the team citing the challenging retail climate as a key factor in this difficult choice.

While the physical store may be closing its doors, Hygge Home is not saying farewell to its loyal customers just yet. The team will continue to participate in local pop-up market events, offering a range of "hygge" related items, including their beloved scent, "Cozy". Additionally, they will maintain their partnership with HorseKrazy Designs at these markets. Keep an eye on their social media for updates on upcoming events and dates.

Reflecting on their journey, the Hygge Home team expressed deep gratitude for the hundreds of visitors who have embraced the unique and relaxing ambiance they carefully curated at their storefront. They extended a heartfelt thanks to the local community for their unwavering support since day one, acknowledging and appreciating the love and kindness they have received.

As they prepare to transition, Hygge Home will be offering discounts on most of their inventory, as well as selling displays, shelving, furniture, lighting, and more. This presents a wonderful opportunity for supporters to grab some great deals and take a piece of Hygge Home's charm with them.

Adding a touch of warmth to their farewell, Hygge Home plans to host a Farewell Party on Friday, June 21st, inviting everyone to stop by and celebrate with them as they embark on this new chapter.

For those unfamiliar with the term, "hygge" (pronounced “HUE-GAH”) is a Danish concept representing a quality of coziness and comfortable living that evokes a sense of contentment, well-being, and simplicity. This essence of comfort and tranquility has been a guiding principle for Hygge Home, and this spirit will continue to inspire them in whatever path they choose to take next.
