Happy New Year!!! ✨🥂🥳 This is the first year in this house we’ve ever put up our number balloons & one of them hasn’t busted (very telling of 2020 & ‘21)! 🎊 I’m hoping that’s a sign of the year to come. 🙏🏻 ps Ellie wasn’t mad in that second pic, that’s just her being 3.5 ☺️ I’m going to be sharing a few January projects that start today over in stories over the next few days!

Merry Christmas + Happy Holidays, friends! ❤️🤍💚 We’re officially in that strange time of the year where I don’t know what day it is, I reflect back on all of the good and the bad of this year, & I’m not sure whether to leave up the Christmas or take it down?! 🤪🥰

2 more sleeps!!! ✨ Wrapping, playing, baking, doing allll the holiday things over here today!!! 🥰🎄✨ #falalalala

Here are my tips for cute + fun gift wrapping ✨🎄:

+ Pick a color scheme – 3-4 colors ⭐️
+ Be sure within your color scheme you have at least one neutral (white/cream/tan/black/etc.) 💚🤍
+ When you see cute wrapping paper, pick it up! It will keep year to year and bring you joy. 🥰
+ I like to use around 5-6 different wrapping papers. ❤️
+ Mix + match solids & patterns. I like to have a solid, a stripe, small patterns, and a whimsical pattern. 💝
+ Instead of traditional bows, try using textured yarn and string! The chunky yarn from Hobby Lobby is perfect!!! 🙌🏻
+ Velvet ribbon can add a simple, pretty, feminine touch to any package. 🎁
+ Add in pops of sparkle or metallics via ribbon, tinsel, or small details on the wrapping paper. ✨
+ Get creative with your nametags – using stickers or painted nametags you can use year after year 👍🏻
+ Top your gifts with small ornaments, disco balls, pom poms, bells, fresh greenery, or tiny bottle brush trees! 🎄
