Holiday Gift Wrapping!

I know this week everyone will be scrambling to get their last minute shopping done followed by some serious gift wrapping!  So I want to help everyone out with a few wrapping ideas!

Have you ever received a gift so beautifully wrapped that you didn't want to open it right away?

With the craziness of the Christmas season upon us, it can be difficult to put time into the smaller details. There is something heartwarming about receiving a gift that has been wrapped with a special touch - just for you!

So this holiday season, why not try a more personalized approach to wrapping? It can be fun to inject more meaning into your gift giving!

Take a look at these beautiful gift wrap ideas that may inspire your creative Christmas gift wrapping side!

Sometimes adding a personal touch can be just what you need! Absolutely love the idea of adding the gift receiver's initials to the present!

I love the simplicity of these packages! Sometimes the smaller, inexpensive touches can be absolutely beautiful!

I love the metallic touches of the jingles bells and the wrapping paper! Plus, adding the bells adds an additional present!

I can't tell you how much I love these gorgeous Christmas cookie gift tags!! Want to know how to make them? Click on the picture and it will send you over to Honestly Yum's website for the recipe!

I always love a good opportunity to be creative! Chalk markers are huge right now & if you can't find wrapping paper that you love then get some gift wrap with a matte finish and go to town with some personal decor! 

You can never go wrong with the classic colours of red, green, and white for Christmas. So beautiful.

Happy wrapping!!!

Christmas Table Settings!

When decorating for the Christmas season many people remember to decorate the Christmas tree, the exterior of your home, the fireplace mantle...but what about the dining room table??

You want your dinner guests to feel transformed with holiday spirit immediately upon entering the dining room! Decorating your holiday dinner table is an amazing way to make the day even more memorable!

If you’re looking to create impact, you can’t beat a striking colour scheme. Silvers and golds create a classic feel, while purples, blues, and black establish more of a modern look. You can’t go wrong with crisp white table linens as they add freshness and pair perfectly with metallic ornamental touches. You can also have fun with Christmas tree bulbs too! Scatter them along the table or hang them from the light fixture above!

Don’t forget that your guests always love to have some fun too! Get some holiday crackers and fun party favours that match your table theme! After all, it’s Christmas!

Which table setting is your favorite?? Comment below!

Outdoor Christmas Decor!

There's a snowstorm in St. John's today and a lot of people have a snow day! So I thought it was a good opportunity to provide everyone with some reading material! You're all very welcome. :)

I've had a few requests for outdoor Christmas decor - so here we go!

Whether your style is traditional, contemporary, or somewhere in between, the front entrance of your home has a huge impact on visitors, friends&family, or the post man dropping of your Christmas packages! It's the first impression someone has before entering your home - celebrate Christmas with style by accentuating your home's most complimentary features!

I went through tons of photos of exterior Christmas decorations and picked out my favourites! Check out the pictures below and see if there's one that inspires you!
