Feel free to skip this post (or revisit it a month from now) if you’re bothered by early holiday decorating, but I have a hunch I’m not the only one who’s ready to put up our Christmas lights earlier than usual this year. Our Christmas celebrations are going to be a bit scaled back this year with fewer family members able to make the trip to Connecticut but I’m planning to go all out with our holiday decor just the same. We have a better handle on what we have and what we need to decorate this house after our first holiday season here last year and I can’t wait to scoop up a few more goodies to take things to the next level this year. At the very least it’ll be a practice round for hopefully more robust celebrations in 2021?

P.S. How I organized our wrapping paper.
