One of my favorite parts of the holiday season is unpacking decorations with the girls and rediscovering everything we’ve collected over the years. There’s always an ornament that brings back a memory, something the girls are especially excited to see again, or a piece that reminds us of a special place where we found it. I love how these familiar favorites tell the story of our holidays, year after year. And inevitably, I always find a few new things I can’t resist adding to the collection.
With our home’s design freshly finished, I’m especially excited to find decorations that feel like a festive extension of our space. This year, I’m drawn to pieces with a sense of whimsy and nostalgia, from hand-painted ornaments and colorful stockings to vintage-inspired finds that look as though they’ve been passed down for generations. It’s that mix of old favorites and new discoveries that makes a home feel so special this time of year.
