I call this little area of our cabin entrance the boot drop 🥾 . The plan called for an open foyer, but I had nightmares of tripping over a dozen (or more) pairs of wet, snowy boots in winter, or sandy flip flops in the summer . So I added this little pony wall with a long storage bench behind it. So the boots stay hidden from sight of the entrance and I keep my sanity. Win win 🙌🏻. Don’t be afraid to use a little creativity with your house plan to make it work for you (and your quirks lol).

Happy Saturday vibes. Hope it’s a great one no matter how nutty it is with recitals and gift wrapping (shopping?) and decorating and parties and oh me oh my. This last stretch before Christmas Eve can be stressful. My plan: put my favourite Christmas music on blast and do some deep breathing 🙏🏻 . What are your favourite Christmas songs? For me: Snoopy’s Christmas, Do They Know it’s Christmas (1984), All I Want for Christmas is You 👏🏻

Hope you are having a happy Friday 🙌🏻 I used lots of plaid in my Christmas decorating this year! Plaid doesn’t have to be a traditional red to feel cozy or festive. This more neutral, grey and cream plaid ribbon does the job in this space without feeling too busy or overwhelming. Have a great day! #alltheplaid

Binoculars or magic Santa tracking 👓 ? 🤔 I’m sure they’ll be used as both in the coming weeks lol. We’re getting excited around here about the upcoming school break and Christmas festivities. Counting down the days! Are you feeling the holiday spirit yet?

Plaids and chunky cable knit textures are giving our cabin all the cozy vibes this holiday season! I think I’m going to leave the plaid pillows and throws out all winter. It’ll feel so bare in this space once the Christmas decorations come down. It’s usually so neutral and airy, but the red definitely makes it feel more festive. Do you love traditional plaid too this time of year?

Anybody else love a Christmas village as much as I do? 🙋🏼‍♀️ This little nordic village has been on my mantel a few Christmases now. (Swipe to see this year’s version.) These were white when I bought them, but you could always paint an older set. In fact, I think my friend Christina @thediymommy had a tutorial on her blog last month for a dollar store set that she painted white and they turned out 👌🏻. Have a great evening!

I have a feeling these might be the only snowmen we see this Christmas ⛄️ . We’re back to rain and high winds, after a pretty sprinkling of snow this weekend. My hopes of skating on the pond during Christmas are slowly dying.😭 Elsa, where you at? I need your magic. #frozen

Just your 2-week-before-Christmas reminder to keep calm and carry on. This is the point in December when the frenzy gets real. But, my new motto is #dontgetyourtinselinatangle 🌲 It’ll all get done, it always does. And, even if it doesn’t, the world won’t come to an end. 🤛 Instead of stressing about my to do list, I’m going enjoy my kids’ excitement.
