This is super stunning. I am high-end realtor and would love to share your post my clients will love these ideas
Hi Victoria! WOW, thank you so much for your kind words. We’d love for you to share this post with your clients. We appreciate you!! Happy Holidays, Susan
Where I live, we already have snow on the ground and that makes me want to decorate for the holidays. I am going to try a tree collar this year for the live tree we get. I like the minimalistic look of the collar and it’s something new to try. As for traditions, we live in Bing Crosby’s hometown so watching White Christmas is a given. Cheers!
Hi Katie! I’m sure having snow on the ground really helps with getting in the Christmas spirit! I had my eye on a tree collar too. Thanks for sharing your tradition…we might have to add that classic to our holiday watch list this year. Have a great week! Susan
I love those brass candle sticks. I used to have a collection of those a long time ago, but brass was so “out” for so many years that I finally got rid of most of them. Of course now, I’m so sad I didn’t keep them
Hi Julie! I know just how you feel! It happens…and usually RIGHT after you let go of the item you had been holding on to! Hope you have a fabulous week and an amazing holiday season! Susan
