I’m not a big seasonal decorator for bedrooms, b I’m not a big seasonal decorator for bedrooms, but I will always swap in luxurious and cozy bedding to create an oasis where we get good sleep. @vesta_sleep #ad provides that for us with beautiful silky, smooth, naturally made bamboo bedding. I particularly love the weight of the sheets. They feel like a natural hug as you sleep with supreme softness. Use my code VESTAGRACE for 40% off sitewide!

I’m hosting Thanksgiving early tomorrow, but my I’m hosting Thanksgiving early tomorrow, but my house looks like this. 🤗🌲🦃 No Christmas tree yet, that will come later. We cut down a real tree each year and decorate it with family ornaments that have meaning and tradition behind them. It’s always a wonky tree that we have to cut too much off of because my eyes were bigger than my house. It’s usually crooked and bare in sections and full of spiders. 😆 But it’s one of the few traditions we have for the holidays. To be honest, some years it’s rushed and stressful and other years it’s a perfect day. But every year it is something we do together as a family, and it’s worth it. 🥹 What’s a family tradition you do around the holidays? ————— The living room has been decorated for Christmas. This ribbon is my go to Christmas decoration this year. It’s on everything! Battery operated candles light the way safely in this large candelabra. And this rug is so soft under foot.

Decorating for Christmas doesn’t have to break t Decorating for Christmas doesn’t have to break the bank! If you are feeling a pinch this season but want to give your existing Christmas decor a fresh look, just buy two spools of ribbon. Use the same color in two different sizes and then strategically place it around your house to create a beautiful, cohesive, and extremely affordable, look for the holidays. The ribbon that I used cost me less than $25 total to decorate the entire house. It comes in many different beautiful colors.

I’ve been waiting to decorate this kitchen for C I’ve been waiting to decorate this kitchen for Christmas since last February. I can’t even believe that one year ago this space didn’t even exist. It was just a framed room with pieces of cabinetry scattered across the house. I knew when I designed the kitchen that the shelves were going to be like a playground for me. I loved putting together this simple look mixed with antiques, homemade garland, and some beautiful greenery. 🤗🌲🕯️ Comment SHOP below to receive a DM with the link to shop available items on my LTK ⬇ The mortar and pestles are antique but you might be able to search for them on Etsy or eBay! 😊 —————— Christmas decor in the kitchen! I like to keep it very simple with greenery, a beautiful swag on the range hood, simple reads in the windows, and lots of antiques! https://liketk.it/4WNYX #ltkfindsunder50 #ltkholiday #ltkfindsunder100
