FRIDAY FINDS – HOLIDAY CHEER

I love vintage brass bells at Christmas time! Tiny brass bells are timeless and I love the pretty tinkling sound they make! I thought it was about time I made my own DIY brass bell garland! If you’ve followed me for a while you’ll know that I often joke that I actually don’t like crafting […]

I love setting a beautiful table, especially at Christmas time! Christmas decor doesn’t have to be thematic or expensive. I set up this modern country Christmas table setting using items I already owned. The minimal and neutral palette blends beautifully with the snowy scene outdoors!

Each year we buy the girls Christmas Advent calendars. They are usually the inexpensive ones you can buy for a few dollars with chocolates inside. We splurged on Playmobil calendars last year.

So if you are familiar with my home and design style…you’ll know that I prefer subtle decor over anything that’s too thematic…even for Halloween! This year I added a few very simple touches to create a pretty and subtle Halloween mantle to get ready for Oct 31! I used mostly real pumpkins in my decor […]
