Hey Reader, I know we're still a few days shy of October, and you may not be ready to think about Christmas yet . . . but I hope you won't mind if I go ahead and open that door a little! You know the retail world is always a few months ahead, so Christmas has been on my brain for a while now. A few weeks ago I found a few Department 56 Christmas village houses. I've always been a sucker for anything in miniature, so I grabbed these little houses faster than you can say deck the halls. I spent some time learning about their history, and am sharing what I learned over on the blog. If you have a Dept 56 collection or are thinking about starting one, this is for you! >>> Click here to read over the the blog And speaking of Dept 56 Houses . . .A few have landed in my online shop!

I appreciate your understanding ☺️ Ok, that's it for Christmas! We can get back to waiting for Fall's arrival now. Hope you have a fantastic weekend! |

This is the holiday where collected and cozy wins over Pinterest-perfect every time. So instead of going with a matching tablescape set this year, try this instead: 1. Mix your metals. Brass candlesticks next to silver...

Wow, what a week it's been! The weather turned cool, my kids' sports started, and I got an invitation to a Christmas party. Yes, you read that right . . . a Christmas Party. Please tell me it's not already time for that! 😭 😳 😂 While my head is still spinning from that, I also finished adding a bunch of new things to the online shop. I promised to email you when they were ready, so here I am 🤗 I've decided to dabble a bit more in the world of collectibles . . . I usually stick to just home...
