Thank you for all the kindness shown to our family over the past couple of weeks. We know that God is good and continues to work for our good. My nieces and nephew sang this at my brother-in-law’s funeral last week and the words have stayed close to my heart and mind.

As we move into more routine, I’ve continued working on decorating our home for the holiday season. One of the reasons I love using the same Christmas decorations year after year is the importance of traditions. Even though I’m incorporating some fresh accent colors this year with ribbon, I love bringing out all of my “old faithfuls”!

Decor that we use year after year are what helps preserve the nostalgia and traditions of the season. What is YOUR favorite decor piece to bring out year after year?

For me, it would be our family nativity and then probably these vintage brass horns that I’ve spent years collecting (I have many more!)

Wishing you week of hope and gratitude.

Blessings,
Robyn

My mantel isn’t quite finished but I decided to go ahead and share my layered garland in case you’re working on some holiday decor planning yourself!

Greenery is one of the first things I start putting around our home because it feels like it starts transforming our home into a cozy Christmas cottage - and I can also keep Thanksgiving decor up with it if I choose to!

I hope this quick tutorial gives you some Christmas inspiration! It really is hard to believe that the season has rolled around again so quickly but I love it!

Let “Operation: Deck the Halls” commence! 🔔🌲

🍂 The season of gratitude and glow is almost here, friends!

This week, I’ve started mixing cozy textures, soft whites, and natural greens — planning and creating spaces that celebrates both gratitude and anticipation.

As I’ve been adding little touches of greenery and sparkle around the house, I keep thinking about how gratitude and joy are so connected. When we slow down to thank God for His blessings, our hearts naturally make room for more joy. 🌿

Tell me below — do you decorate before or after Thanksgiving? Or mix it all together into one cozy season like I do?👇
Let’s celebrate the beauty of both seasons together! 🤎🎄

Blessings,
Robyn

“What if today we were thankful for everything?” - Charlie Brown

What little thing are YOU grateful for today?!

Added a little touch of Thanksgiving to the dining room shelves along with my annual PSA: it’s time to start mixing winter greenery into your fall decor for a full and lush Thanksgiving style! It also mirrors nature with dried leaves mixed with evergreen, cedar, and pine varieties!

I hope you’re having a great week so far!

Blessings,
Robyn
