Happenings at Home

Hey friends how was your week? I had a great week and the weather here in Colorado has been AMAZING!

Ok, so I am curious. Have you started decorating for Christmas or are you still all in on Fall and Thanksgiving? My mom is hosting this year so I am ready to go all in on Christmas!

This past week I started getting out my Christmas decor and even set up two Christmas trees.

I didn’t decorate them yet but have been enjoying their lovely glow of lights in the evenings. This week I plan to finish up getting it all out and will be sharing more Christmas here on the blog in coming weeks.

Below is the tree I put up in our kitchen. I used a thrifted basket at the bottom and shared the entire process over on Instagram if you want to watch. The other tree is our flocked one in the family room.

These are early peeks for you and now I need to get busy finishing up and will share the final pictures as soon as I’m done! Can you tell I’m doing mostly blues and greens this year? What do you think?

If you are looking for a new tree you can see my post 20 of the best artificial Christmas trees of 2023. I linked mine shown above in the post too.

This week on the blog was all about pinecones. We have so many in our backyard that I have been able to use them in a variety of ways. I figured you might enjoy them as well.
