Holiday Hosting Prep


As I begin this post about prepping for holiday guests, I can’t help but laugh and think about Christmas Vacation. Who doesn’t love that movie?! It’s a December necessity for me or else it just doesn’t feel like the holidays. Hilarity aside, you have to appreciate the love and effort that the Griswolds put into their home to get it ready for their family. It’s all about creating that best kind of feeling and making memories. As a wife and momma I can relate to wanting to create that homey atmosphere. I realize that it’s so much more than “things”, it’s about the people, the experiences, the food, the laughter. But I really love adding holiday touches everywhere, in the family room, dining room, guest bedroom, playroom, and everywhere in between. And Serena & Lily’s new holiday and winter collection is totally doing it for me, I love the festive simplicity of it all.

Those camp throws that the kids are nestled in above are absolute perfection. I want to drape them on the end of every bed. They come in 5 different colors so it should be pretty easy to find one that works. Plus Serena & Lily is currently (well until tomorrow night) offering a really great promo site wide…
