Can you believe the holiday season is here? Come along as I share some simple ideas and plenty of inspiration when it comes to decorating for Christmas and the winter holidays.
I don’t know about you but the winter holidays always have a tendency to sneak up on me.
It doesn’t matter when I start planning what to give people on my Christmas list or how I’m going to make the best holiday tablescape ever… I always seem to run out of time.
That’s why I try to make things simple. The less time it takes to decorate, the more time there is to enjoy what’s really important during the holidays.
