Christmas decor ideas. Minimalistic vibes.

Decorating our home for Christmas

December 12, 2022

This is our first Christmas in our new home and it’s been a long time since I’ve really truly decorated for the holiday. Because our family has had such a tough year, I wanted to end the year on a joyful note by making our home warm, cheerful and nostalgic for the season. My idea for decor was to keep it neutral like the rest of our home decor. I didn’t want to stray too far away from that, plus the minimal neutral vibes is just what I’m on these days.

Table decor

Because I didn’t have a tree I had to get one along with ornaments. I already had table decor from the last two years and it went with my decor theme, so I was able to use everything that I had from previous years. I used pine cones and various types of mini Christmas trees for table decor.

Dining table and kitchen

For our dining table and kitchen island, I wanted to add some greenery but keep it simple. For the dining table I went with a white vase and filled it with some green stems. In our kitchen, I added a wreath to the wall. I also used a wooden stand to display a mini tree, a white Christmas house and a candle. You can never go wrong with a candle.

Front porch

I chose to keep our porch area simple. I also wanted something that could be used throughout the entire winter season especially since wreaths aren’t cheap. The layered doormat look is a vibe, so I incorporated that into our front porch decor.

The tree

For my tree I wanted very minimal decor. I was initially only going to do black round ornaments, but then I saw a pack of brown and copper and decided to go that route. I still planned on adding black ornaments because I ordered them, but I received a pack of red and burgundy round ornaments instead. Luckily, the burgundy ornaments actually worked and gave the tree a moody vibe which is what I was going for anyway. I ended up adding a brown beaded garland to tie it all together. I chose not to put a topper on the tree; I was on the fence about it and the one I was considering at Target was sold out.

I enjoyed decorating for the holidays and bringing a little joy into our home for the season. If you are looking for some last minute decor ideas, I you can shop my LTK which links most of the decor items I used. I have been loving seeing how everyone else has decorated their home for Christmas!

Until next time…

Fresh flowers in the kitchen are top tier and a great effortless way to elevate your island. Now that fall season is upon us, choose flowers that give you that fall feeling.

Here’s how I styled my fall flowers on my kitchen island:

1. I chose a vase that went with my vibe. Since fall is the vibe, I used my burnt orange pitcher as my vase.

2. I positioned the flowers according to my desired look - the taller stems in the back and the ivory colors on the outside with the pink and orange on the inside.

3. I used a stand to display my bouquet. Using a stand or a tray makes it the focal piece on your island and helps to group your decor pieces together. 

4. Following the decor rules of 3, I added two additional pieces onto the stand - a candle and a beaded garland. This just tied the entire look together. You can add a candle and a small figurine, etc.

The completed look definitely gave fall vibes. Let me know in the comments what you think and if this is something you will try for your kitchen!

I’m at a point in my life where I’m learning to look at the challenges in life as opportunities for growth. I once looked at rain as a barrier to my plans, but now I see it as a necessity for plans even greater than my own to bloom. 

The storms in life that we face seem so impossible to endure. They test our faith and push us to lengths we never knew we would go. I read a quote that says, “without rain, there can be no flowers. The greater the struggle the more beautiful the blooms.” 

I feel encouraged to say, not much longer. Your bloom is coming. 

If you needed this reminder, drop some flowers in the comments 💐

Every time I try a new @hellofresh meal, I say it’s my favorite. This one is in my top faves *chefs kiss*. I’ve never had crescent-wrapped salmon and was a little unsure at first but this one was a winner! 

If you get exhausted with trying to figure out new meals to cook each week, I definitely recommend Hello Fresh. They always have something unique and it helps relieve the stress of always trying to figure out what to cook for dinner. Also the ingredients are always super fresh and that just elevated the meal altogether.

Have you ever tried @hellofresh? Let me know in the comments. 🥙

Also, anybody else been listening to 702 in memory of Irish or just me?! 🥺😭

As a first-time homebuyer the process can seem overwhelming and intimidating. I recently had a consultation with a first-time homebuyer and was able to walk her through the process but simplify it in a way where she felt comfortable and competent going into the process.

Even though this client isn’t ready to buy until next year, I told her now is the perfect time to start preparing. This gives them time to understand the process, speak with lenders and find the best program for them, and even save more money towards down payment and moving costs. 

You don’t have to wait until you’re ready to speak with a realtor. I am a planner at heart and here to help you plan and prepare to live well through real estate 🏡
