We are a decorate after Thanksgiving house, but I’ve been having so much fun getting inspired for ways to make the house feel magical this holiday season! 🥹

Key takeaways from this 1991 Southern Living Christmas book:

🪵 The best decorations come from your backyard! As much as you can, utilizing branches and dried florals from outdoors will give you the best textures and color palettes

🎄Don’t forget to look up! The space above eye level is often forgotten and hanging garlands or paper snowflakes on the ceiling can really transform your space

❄️ You really can’t mix too many patterns or textures. Don’t worry so much about a theme as collecting pieces that you love and mean something to you and your family

I absolutely love that nostalgic Christmas is making a comeback! Have you guys started decorating for the holidays yet?

Any path a woman could choose has the potential to Any path a woman could choose has the potential to be filled with joy and richness. 

Whether that path is motherhood or not, I truly believe the key to fulfillment is embracing that life will be mundane, but that’s what makes it beautiful.

It’s a scary time to raise children, there’s no doubt about that. 

But it’s such an honor to have the chance to raise a generation that is kinder and more empathetic than we are.

My goal with this page is to help moms feel like the main character in their story again. To embrace the power of motherhood and not accept becoming the forgotten backdrop in our communities.

I’m glad you’re here, together we will find the joy 🫶🏻

One of life’s greatest joys is gorging yourself on candy the day after Halloween. Who am I to not pass the torch on that experience? 🤣

#ad | One thing I’ve learned living in the Midwe #ad | One thing I’ve learned living in the Midwest is that the little things are truly what carry you through the cold months 😅 

One of those little things that helps me most is having cozy pajamas I love and look forward to putting on at night! It’s such an easy way to romanticize cold mornings and make the colder months feel a little less bleak.
