Nostalgic Christmas Tree & Making Memories
Christmas is almost upon us! Which actually gets me a little sad that this magical time will soon be over, but before it is, I wanted to share more details of our nostalgic Christmas tree and some of the memories we have been making this holiday season. I shared my full holiday home tour last week, but our tree is pretty special to me since we received several of my grandparents’ ornaments. Both of them passed away earlier this year (my grandmother in January and my grandfather in March), so it has been a time of loss and remembering. I am grateful to have these small mementos to keep their memory…

Holiday Home Tour 2015
This Christmas season has been special for me. With a three and four year old, it is absolutely the best time of year, so I have been taking things slow to savor all of the sweet moments and create lasting memories. I decided to hold off on doing a holiday home tour post for just that reason, but I’m happy to share it with you today. I was invited to two large group tours and was a bit sad to turn them down, but I knew it would cause me a lot of stress getting our home all done up the week after Thanksgiving. I wanted to take my time…

DIY Advent Calendar & Festive Holiday Mantel
I have been sponsored by Command Brand and received product for this post. All expressed opinions are 100% my own, and all additional products selected were chosen by me. This post also contains affiliate links*. Read my full disclosure. Decorating for Christmas has always been a favorite pastime of mine. Some years, however, I let the pressure to have a “perfect holiday home” get to me, and lose the joy the season brings trying to get it all done. This year, instead of trying to tackle decorating our entire home and going over the top everywhere, I decided to focus on what would bring my children joy and fill their…

Upcycled Glam Napkin Rings
Early in December, I shared a post over at Yellow Bliss Road for my Glam Napkin Rings that were featured in my holiday home tour at the end of last last year. It was my last guest post over there, and today I am resharing it with you here! These napkin rings are very versatile and don’t just have to be for a Christmas table. Depending on the embellishments you could use them for any occasion all year long. I could definitely see the red and white ones working for a special Valentine’s dinner for two. Here is the original post: I love anything that is quick and easy and…
