Wrap ‘Em Up!

December 23, 2014

Now that you’re (hopefully) nearly done with your gift buying, it’s time to wrap them up!  I love wrapping gifts, so much so that it’s one of the reasons I like to get my holiday shopping done early, so I can wrap the packages up and enjoy them under the tree for as much of the season as possible!  They become a part of my holiday decor.

Part of the fun for me is coming up with unique and creative ways to wrap gifts for those I love.

Holiday Decor

December 19, 2014

When decorating my home for the holidays I like to embrace the colors I have in my place rather than embark on a complete overhaul.

Since my place is decorated in warm tones of gold, orange and brown, I simply expanded on that for my holiday decorating, adding a hint of white to brighten things up.

Decorating for the holidays can be overwhelming, so I like to start early and tackle it one vignette at a time. Starting early also allows you time to shop around, find unexpected treasures and avoid the last minute frenzy.

I love wreaths. And I especially love all the variations that are so readily available. When thinking about adding a wreath or two to your space, don’t be afraid to think outside the box. I simply loved the look of this gold wreath, rather than just hanging it on my door, I replaced my regular art in the living room with it, making it the focal point. Why not hang a wreath over an existing mirror, maybe in a dinning room; or on the pantry door for some festive appeal in the kitchen; the possibilities are endless.

One of the reasons I love the Holiday Season is the baking! I love to get a head start so that I can gift my treats to my staff, use them as hostess gifts or parting gifts for my guests. This, more than any other time of the year, is the time to start baking. It doesn’t matter if you’re a complete novice as there are many baking courses at Saavor.in for you to get stuck into! These recipes are especially great because they can be prepared ahead and/or frozen, guaranteeing you’ve got some holiday sweetness on hand no matter how busy you get!
