Styling a New Years Eve Bar Cart

12/17/2019 By Bre

Christmas is next week!! And that means that we will be ringing in the New Year before you know it! A few years ago we started celebrating New Years Even in, and having my sister and her family over. We play games and the kids have a karaoke sing off until it’s time to watch the ball drop! It has totally replaced any need to go out and celebrate. So while we stay in there are a few things I like to do to still make it feel special. One of them is styling our bar cart so it’s ready with a champagne toast to ring in the New Year.

Allowing others to give the Gift of Gathering

12/12/2019 By Bre

Hello Friends!! I can’t believe that Christmas is in less than 2 weeks! I feel like I say this every year, but every time we get this close to Christmas I find myself wishing time would stand still, and in disbelief at how fast yet another year has gone by. Last weekend I had the pleasure of going to Christmas party hosted by my friend Jen from Migonis Home. It was sort of an informal get together for some local bloggers and readers to meet in person, celebrate the holidays, and enjoy a meal together. Honestly, it was more of a blessing than I anticipated, and it reminded me of what it’s like when we allow others to bless us with the gift of gathering. So I wanted to share a little bit more with you all on here, because it truly is a gift we can all receive.

Hello Friends!! I’m so excited to share our farmers porch with you today, all spruced up for the holidays.

Chunky Knit Tree Skirt

11/23/2019 By Bre

Hello friends!! I have gotten so many questions about my Christmas tree skirt, I wanted to designate a post just to share it! I’ve always love the look of blankets draped around the bottom of a tree skirt vs. a traditional tree skirt. I’m not 100% sure why, but to me it just looks more cozy and relaxed. I’ve used a chunky knit blanket the last few years, and the shop I got it from is no longer in business, but fear not, I have rounded up a few different places you can find them!
