What a lazy, hazy Saturday we had...Sam an I never even left the house. We hung out around here and enjoyed doing Nothing. We stayed in our recliners, and curled up in our blankets for most of the day. I did make time to wrap some gifts and get them under the tree. Making progress!!
I thought I would do something a little fun today and give you a tiny preview....a little taste, a smidge, a sprinkle...of Christmas around here.
So...welcome to my unofficial Christmas decor tour, also known as "I could have waited until December One, but oh well.
A few decorations have made a grand entrance and there will be more to come. It's crazy how that once the garlands and the rest of the greenery make their appearance, I lose all self control. My excitement begins to grow and grow and grow.
This year's vibes? Warm, Cozy, a dash of charm and a whisper of nostalgia. Basically the look that I love. I have little clusters of greenery tucked in corners and soft twinkle lights glowing...Old bells and dried orange slices that remind me of Christmases when I was a kid.
This is just a small preview...kinda like a teaser or perhaps it's like my daughter said..."Mom, it looks like a Holiday appetizer around here and I know the main course is coming SOON."
More Twinkle to come....
For me...the sweetest part of adding these little touches early is how it shifts the whole atmosphere of our home. Scented candles and a simple wreath, or a glowing window as the outside lights reflect their beauty...each of these things just makes me want to hug it all.
Decorating early doesn't just make things pretty, it has made my life easy this year. These early decorations? They are little love notes to myself. Just a sweet reminder that home is not just where we live, it's where we breath, where we feel love and where we allow our souls to rest.
Shug..💚
