Well, the holidays are here! And it's time to start decorating!
When my boys were younger, we used to decorate our tree as a family -- now that one son is in college and the other works full time, I find that my husband and I end up decorating the tree by ourselves!
I try to keep it fresh by adding something unique to my holiday decor each year, and I thought I'd share a few of the things that I've discovered this season! Just one little update in your holiday decor can make a difference!
Succulent wreaths are my favorite because you can replant all those pretty little succulents in your garden after the holidays. This Bay Leaf wreath is actually edible and artful and the same time. Boxwood wreaths are a classic (this one is faux), and so pretty!
Did you know that Amazon sells wreaths? There are so many great options for wreaths that can arrive at your doorstep quickly!
A garland is a simple way to jazz up your mantle, your holiday dining table or an entry table -- all of these are sourced from West Elm. Affordable and pretty!
Is it time to update your tree skirt? These tree skirts are from One Kings Lane -- and I absolutely am in love with that chartreuse one. I just ordered it yesterday! :)
I absolutely have to buy at least one new ornament each year, and there are so many adorable choices from Anthropologie and West Elm. The woodcut ornaments are my new favorites!
One final tip -- do something different with the holiday decorations that you own -- instead of putting a wreath on your door, use it as a centerpiece; or instead of using all of your ornaments on your tree, arrange a few on your coffee table or in your powder room; and finally -- only bring out the decorations that bring you joy!
