2017 Holiday Planner
With the Holiday season fast approaching, there's always an increase in activity around our home. Decorating, shopping, and good old family time can sometimes unintentionally create unnecessary stress.
One of the ways that I avoid holiday stress is by planning. As you may have noticed, I'm a huge fan of planning and organizing. The more prepared and organized that I am, the better I'm able to handle the stress of the holiday season and I feel that I execute my decorating wishes/wants better. Always a win in my book!
I've created a FREE Holiday Planner to help with just that, a way to avoid the holiday stress and enjoy quality time with family and friends. Sign up below to get access to your FREE copy and see just how smooth and enjoyable your 2017 holiday season will be!

I’ll be honest: I thought a fresh coat of paint was all this sterile transition zone needed, but after painting the ceiling Benjamin Moore's Antique Jade and the walls Behr's Palais White, the result was… well, boring. I knew it needed soul, but with two kids and a dog, I was terrified of choosing something that wouldn't last.
