I finally finished putting up our holiday decorations and wanted to share a few snapshots. For the most part, I added garland and a few silver and gold touches to our existing decor. We’re in an apartment at the moment, so I have lots of ideas for adding holiday glow to small spaces. The lights, garland accents and spicy scents are so welcoming, I never want the holidays to end!
I also added a couple of new traditions this year. Our village in a jar and advent calendar have been so much fun that we plan to have these as part of our annual holiday lineup going forward.
I hope you have a holiday filled with fun, family and love!

Beautiful decorations. I love the simple colour pallet that you used. The little house in the jar is too cute! Like a over sized snow globe. Love it.
