"I love all of the festive décor during the holiday seasons! It's just all around exciting and helps set the stage for
celebrating. We have a few fun traditions that we stick to with our immediate family, because our extended
family lives so close, we do a bit of "holiday house hopping" to see as many of our loved ones as possible."
-Shelley Smith

Bring in both the soft and more
rustic elements of nature to get a
well-balanced look.

woodsy elements to our space, we
were able to create a woodland
theme without going overboard.

"There's so much to love about the holiday season: parties, great food, seasonal outings, but I think I most
love the sparkle of holiday lights. Such a simple tradition just brings the season alive. It's the time of year
when I make everything from scratch and overindulge in fat and sugar. I usually like to try a new recipe
or two as well, typically a new spin on dressing or a new dessert."

"What I enjoy most about the holiday season is the delicious treats, twinkling lights, and time spent with
family! I love to create a sweet spread of treats and hot cocoa in my living room to encourage all the
family to gather around and enjoy holiday movies together!"

Find a color palette or pattern and
use it consistently.
Giving your décor a theme such as
peppermint gives creative direction
to the décor.
