I love Christmas trees, they literally fill my heart with joy. If I'm having a bad day, I drink a glass of wine and watch my Christmas lights twinkle. Since, it's considered the Most Wonderful Time of the Year, why confine all the joy and magic strictly to December? I think not.
Decorating for holidays is my therapy. It's my creative outlet, and it's a way for our family to bond. Holidays are our jam! Themed festivities? Consider them our love language. My husband and I are probably the only duo outside of Elsa and Anna who've debated endlessly over "Do you want to Build a Snowman?" which naturally evolved into a full-blown snow-room. Because, let's face it, we love holidays!
Over the years, our home has seen it all: a Barbie extravaganza tree, a Disney Little Mermaid tree, spooktacular Halloween trees, and the creme de la creme, our Easter tree.
As two former NOCCA students, crafting bunnies, painting carrots, and curating personalized Easter baskets for unique decorations has become a cherished tradition.
We dedicate countless hours hunting down the perfect ornaments to bring next season's theme to life. Who's in desperate need of pink and green wrapping paper? Me! And who absolutely needs a 4ft bunny in their living room? We do!
But here's the secret sauce: Embrace the magic of every season, and let your tree sparkle all year round!
Here are a few tips for decorating year-round:
1. Opt for ornaments in neutral colors like silver or gold that can complement various décor styles.
2. Stay on the lookout for sales and plan ahead for each holiday to snag the best deals.
3. Don't be afraid to get crafty! You can paint items to match your home's décor perfectly.
4. Involve your kids in the decorating process to let their creativity shine. Whether it's basketball or ballerina themed, let their imaginations run wild!
5. Most importantly, have fun! Turn on some music, make memories, and treat decorating as your very own date night.
With Easter just around the corner, dust off that tree, gather some bunnies, and hop into the spirit of holiday happiness!
Remember, 'tis ALWAYS the season to celebrate!
