There’s something extra special about decorating an older home for Christmas. My mind wanders when I think about people celebrating the holidays in this space for the past 100 years. Well, almost. Ninety-nine to be exact.

I would give anything to go back in time and see photos of the living room decorated with a sparkly Christmas tree in the front window!

1. Here’s a link to my white Christmas tree. I scoured the internet to find a new one this year, and I love it. The lights are warm and pretty, and it was easy to assemble.

2. If you like The Shining as much as I do, you’ll probably love this art print that I have in my bathroom.

3. Speaking of Etsy, I bought this yin yang candle for a Christmas gift. Yin yangs forever!

4. My favorite cookie recipe on the blog. ❤️

5. How often do you go through a tube of lip gloss? I’ve run out of this one multiple times. It’s the best.

6. This mini food ornament set from Target is cute.

7. The quilt of my d r e a m s.

8. If you’re looking for gift ideas, Elsie’s holiday gift guide has a bunch of unique items (with over 10 categories). So good!

9. Random question: Did you know that we have a newsletter? I promise it’s fun content and not spammy. Haha.

10. I use my YETI Rambler so much (it was a gift) that I finally bought a second one. It’s the perfect size for a cup of coffee or tea.

P.S. Here are a few recent posts in case you missed them!
