Decorations

O Christmas Tree.

I go home every year for Christmas, but I’d like to see someone try to stop me from decorating my school apartment in the time being. I wanted to share the few things I do around here to make it feel a bit more festive.

First, of course, the tree. It’s totally barbie-ized, but if there’s ever a time when it’s okay to totally pink-out and glitter-up decorations, I think it’s now!

Now for some of the other little details.

I always put up decorations the week after Thanksgiving, and take them down after finals. It’s kind of a little mind trick I play because just when it feels like the holidays are ending since I put away decorations, they’re really just beginning back at home! It’s like two Christmases!

I’m hoping to look back on these pictures every year and be able to tell that I’ve stepped up my decorating game.

Tell me, how do you decorate? Do you keep it simple or go big?

Hugs,

Megan

Oh Deer.

I’m not sure if it is the time of year or the fact that I have seen them everywhere, but I have been loving deer items lately. Owls will always have my heart (People other than children can have favorite animals right?) but deer are so fun for decorations around the holidays. Here are a few of my favorite items from around the web.

I am on the hunt for a sequin stag pillow, but for the time being, I threw together this cute DIY to fight my holiday’s glitter craft itch. I pretty much followed these instructions to a T. I did use neon glitter though, partially because I’m a five year-old and partially because it is all the store had. Cute right?

Talk to me, what trends are you loving this season?
