This Week I Feel {Celebratory}

Hi there! How was everyone's holiday? I hope it was relaxing and enjoyable. I certainly know mine was. And now that the festivities are over, it's time to start prepping for the next bash. They always say how you ring in the new year is a prediction of the year to come, thus why not ring it in in style. With glitter, drinks, friends, and fun how can you go wrong? I love using tinsel to write out the year. I'm even going to take this idea and use it to decorate my bike for our annual bike decorating competition. Don't worry I'll show you pictures of that later. Leave up the Christmas lights to sparkle off the glitter for a little extra bling. As long as you keep a neutral pallet of silver and gold glitter, you can't go wrong! 

How are you ringing in the new year?

This Week I Feel {Bright}

When in doubt add glitter. One of my favorite sights is the glow of Christmas lights off the sparkle of glistening ornament. But what I love so much about metallic decor for the holidays is how it can carry though to New Years. Metallics act as a neutral so decorating pieces can be used year round as an accent for birthdays, weddings, or any other occasion worth throwing a party! Gold accents are the perfect compliment to the more traditional red and green and add that little necessary splash of glitz.

This Party Inspired By {Holiday Sparkle}

Tis the season for holiday parties! During this time everybody's social calendar seems to fill with holiday parties galore. Whether you are hosting one or simply a doting guest, the focus is always on the decor. And with so many on the calendar, it is bound to get a little repetitive. So maybe you should be the one to mix it up. I love the idea of doing holiday sparkle. Fill the room with golds, silvers, pinks and glitter! If the things people associate with the holidays are there, it really doesn't matter the color. Roll branches from the yard with glitter to make an eye catching centerpiece or fill clear ornaments with confetti. Add vases of ornaments and brightly colored tassel to mix it up. I love the idea of hanging ornaments at various lengths in front of the window. Looking for a little interaction? Have clear ornaments, bowls of glitter, and ribbon and let guests make their own ornament for their tree! Frankly, with glitter involved, the possibilities are endless!

What are your holiday party plans this year? Hosting or attending?
