‘Tis the Season 12.7.25
Hi friends! I hope you’re having a beautiful weekend. My husband and I are having a quiet one so far, and it’s been so nice to slow down a bit. I finished decorating for Christmas (well… almost!). I’m still waiting on a few pieces I ordered on sale that I’m so excited about, and I’ll share all the details below. I also went through some Christmas decor I haven’t used in years and set it aside to pass along to someone who will enjoy it. Since I don’t have a lot of storage space at home, I’m trying to be more mindful about keeping only what I truly use — and honestly, it feels so freeing. Plus, I grabbed everything on sale and most of it shipped for free, which is always a win.
I also started a Catholic Bible study for Lent using the Ascension app, and it has already been such a blessing. I’ve been wanting to dive into studying the Bible again, and this one feels perfect. Beginning my mornings with it since Friday has left me feeling so uplifted.
Things I Bought and Love
I ordered this adorable Santa pillow to keep at my house for my grandson — it’s just the cutest, and it’s 50% off!
I also wanted something festive to wear around the house, so I grabbed these Santa slippers on sale for about $15. Too cute to pass up.
This handmade ceramic nativity set has been on my wishlist since last Christmas, so I finally ordered it before it sells out. It’s so special.
And because I can’t resist a sweet little Christmas village moment, I added two more of these handmade ceramic houses to my collection. They’re truly adorable.
I’m really excited to use this marble Christmas tree as a charcuterie board this season — it’s going to make everything look so pretty and elevated.
I’ve been having a little eczema flare-up on my feet and heard great things about this balm, so I’m trying it today and will report back.
I’m also working on refreshing my guest room with these sky-blue bordered quilts I’ve loved for years. I’m thinking about spray-painting the twin beds to give the room a whole new look — such an easy update. That room is slowly turning into the sweetest little grandkids’ space, and I can’t wait.
I needed a new Christmas tree skirt and thought this blue velvet quilted one would be perfect for my coastal tree.
