Just started using a kotatsu for a few days now, and it’s a game-changer for cozy winter vibes! ❄️🍵

If you’ve never heard of a kotatsu, you’re not alone—I discovered this genius warmth haven during my visits to Japan. Despite being aware, I never used one until recently when my mother-in-law passed hers on to us.

As you can see, it’s a table with a blanket and a heating element underneath—it’s like a toasty haven for your legs in a tatami room. 🏡

Here’s the deal: you sit at the table, cover your legs with the blanket, and voila! It’s like having your own heated legs tent. Quick, comfortable, and oh-so-warm.

What’s your take on the kotatsu? Would you give it a try? Share your thoughts! 🔥
