Red and White Christmas Ideas (Link Party Features)

I have been seeing a lot of snow falling around the U.S. this weekend, were you one of the lucky ones that got dumped on? We have had record breaking low temps here in Seattle, 14 degrees today which is CRAAAAZY! Crisp, cool days with blue skies are my favorite. 

I love seeing all of the creative holiday projects linked up to the Inspiration Gallery, here are some Red and White Christmas Ideas.

    Thank you Taryn for including my pretzels. I was wondering how you were fairing with the weather. My hubs headed back home last night & was greeted to 0 degrees & -17 degrees with wind chill. He said they had a nice light dusting of snow too. I’m still in So Cal so it’s a quite mild 45 degrees- however they all think it’s frigid :)

    Great trees and decos, loved them all. I’m going to pin all of them. So much to remember. How’s your decorating coming along? How’s the little man and big sister? Are you getting any sleep?
    We were in Seattle one year it was quite cold with lots of snow. We were trucking thru on way to Spokane after being up in Kelowna, B.C. Really cold up there in winter, lots of snow.
    We had 8 1/2 inches of snow on Tuesday night/Wed with pretty cold temps here for over a week, below zeros at night. Then Friday it snowed lightly all day/night off and on. I’m loving it as I’m a winter person, love the sweaters, etc., good thing I got our winter clothes out when I did. Keep scrounging for more in storage.
    The loads of laundry are horrendous due to heavy shirts, sweat shirts, jammies. I usually wear a long sleeved tshirt under jam top or I’m freezing. We have 4 quilts on bed. Feels so nice and cozy. Was so cold one night last week we had our dog sleep in his flannel coat. I keep talking about finding him a sweat shirt I could alter so he could wear. He hates wearing his coat and getting his feet cleaned when he comes in the house.
    Hope you’re enjoying the holiday season. Stay warm. Happy week

Euro Summer First stop Paris 🇫🇷. It’s been Euro Summer First stop Paris 🇫🇷. It’s been 19 years since I’ve been here and it’s even more magical than I remember! There is something truly special about this city. The architecture, the people, the most amazing pastries, and gorgeous gardens. Showing my family this city was a gift. I experience it in a different way each time and it just keeps getting better.

Comments OUTDOOR for all the info on our backyard Comments OUTDOOR for all the info on our backyard furniture and decor! Unfortunately, when I get an idea I can’t stop until it’s done 😉. I got an itch to swap out our three chaise lounges for a large U-Shape sectional to create more seating and lounging poolside. I knew there was only one brand who could make this happen… I worked with @polywood to design a sectional that would be a complete custom fit for this little nook. I used the Braxton 6 Seat Sectional and added additional modular seats to get this look. I LOVE how it turned out! They can make anything happen! 

POLYWOOD outdoor furniture is made out of recycled plastics, making it durable in all weather climates. They also have a 20 year warranty.

POV: working with what you have and creating somet POV: working with what you have and creating something completely new! I kept all the original flooring, cabinets, backsplash and fixtures and did only cosmetic updates to update this space. I wanted to add more contrast, character, warmth and texture. By smoothing out the texture of the walls it instantly gave it an updated look, the new paint color added contrast, the wood ceiling added warmth and texture and all the antiques and vintage pieces gave it the charm. 🖤

LAUNDRY ROOM IS DONE ! This was a true example of LAUNDRY ROOM IS DONE ! This was a true example of working with what we have, turning something with great bones into something that is unique, custom and full of character. (Swipe for the before) It now feels like my own little escape to the French countryside every time I do laundry, and I’m not mad about it. 

Comment LAUNDRY for all the details and links!
