What is your Christmas style?
Are you a Traditional or Modern Christmas Mama?
The question of the season is,
“What color is your Christmas?”
Black, White, Red and Green?
For Christmas 2017, we have decided on Blush and Rose Gold.
Liyah and I are obsessed with all things Blush.
Sydney has a “thing” for Rose Gold this year.
Jason likes Copper, Gold and Rose Gold.
Jeremy… um… he can care less! Lol.
If it were up to him, he’d have a naked black Christmas Tree that’s disposable.
He’s not too fond of cleaning up and putting away all of my crap!
Every first weekend in December, we’d put up our Christmas tree and holiday decor around the house. In the past, every room in our home had a different themed Christmas tree. (I know right!?)
I start off by building my ideas around the theme of our tree. Once I make a decision on what colors to use, everything else falls right into place.
I love metallics and neutrals. It’s easier to recreate, and it looks great with our home decor.
Guess it’s pretty obvious, I am not the traditional red and green Christmas kind of girl. It always looks great in other people’s homes… just not our’s.
It’s evident, I am CLEARLY NOT your average mom! I go against the grain when it comes to style. (that’s the rebellion in me)
I find that traditional styles do not match my personality.
I typically switch our theme and colors up every year to prevent myself from boredom. This way I’d have a whole different project to work on. ?
When shopping for ornaments, I enjoy hand-picking my favorites. You should see me in the ornament aisle – I’m like a child in a candy store! Am I the only mom you know who is obsessed with Christmas decorations?!
With NO shame, I’ll admit, I am p—retty nuts about Christmas!
It has always been my absolute FAVORITE Holiday.
One reason is because my birthday falls on the 23rd., two days before Christ’s birthday!
That’s enough of a reason to celebrate!
This year’s Holiday theme is
”The Frosted Forest”.

Hope you loved everything as much as we do.
If it’s not your style, I totally get it:)
This is how I decorate my Christmas tree and home, but if I decorate your’s, of course it will look completely different!
Charlotte and Weddington homes I’ve decorated this year…
This home chose Red as their Christmas color. They are a very simple, traditional family who appreciates a moderately-modern style. Not too “over-the-top”.
Red is actually looks good with several different colors around it. We used a cooler shade Red along with a cool teal and other metallics. You can never go wrong with Silver or Gold.

D.I.Y. Custom Christmas Wreath
I really enjoy customizing details. There’s just something about knowing what you have is unique and no one else will have the exact same design, you know?

Simple Red Christmas Tree
Less is more. They loved the simplicity of their tree, and I am happy to make that happen for them! Their tree has a combination of modern and traditional ornaments that represent who their family.
Pretty Purple Christmas
When Purple is your favorite color, it doesn’t matter what shade of Purple it is! Lilac, Lavender, Magenta, Orchid, Violet… it’s a l l Purple!
Purple is such a fun color and there are so many colors that will compliment it. The lady of this home loved every shade!

Purple Passion Christmas Tree
Pretty-in-Purple Christmas Tree. This tree is a perfect fit for a feminist. I do know plenty of men who’s favorite color is Purple also:) I’d leave the flowers off of it if I were to decorate a man’s Purple tree though. ?
