I think removing the pressure to get everything up and ready in just one day has really enhanced my enjoyment of the festive season.
What about you - are you a get it all done kind of person, or does your holiday decor evolve over the weeks before the big day?#apriljharris #the21stcenturyhousewife #holidaydecor #mystylephotochallenge #red #littlestoriesofmylife #decoratingstyle #shinyhappybloggers #christmastree #christmasdecor #gettingreadyforchristmas #holidayseason
Instagram post 2196024479264347171_179821897 🌟 Sparkle and shine 🌟My talented friend @slkw73 put together this sweet frugal coffee table decoration for me. We used a glass dish that belonged to my late Mom via my late Grandma. The string of pine cones  with tiny lights (that don't show up in the photo!) was purchased from @greenparlour and the pretty berry garland from @kikiandbow. Love being able to use vintage sentimental treasures like this!

Instagram post 2194404729956828073_179821897 🌟The 80/20 Rule 🌟Do you follow this simple rule? Eighty percent of the time I eat healthily, exercise and do all the healthy things. Twenty percent of the time I let myself go a little. So this morning we wrapped up warm and got out for a brisk walk (before the rain!) to make up for a tiny bit of over-indulgence celebrating with friends last night. Okay...maybe a lot of indulgence...🍾🍷🍷🍷🍾We did skip dessert though! 😉#apriljharris #the21stcenturyhousewife #wrapupwarm #mystylephotochallenge #healthyliving #getoutside #8020rule #healthylifestyle #walking #balancedlife
Instagram post 2193125280088611995_179821897 🌟 Getting in the Christmas Spirit🌟Magical evening in Pangbourne tonight at the Pangbourne Christmas Shopping evening. We started here @kikiandbow for lots of lovely Christmas gifts (and some delicious stollen), went on to @ninos.trattoria for more delicious gifts (and tasty pizza!) and enjoyed so many of the other lovely shops as well. The sausages Green's of Pangbourne were serving were amazing and we really enjoyed the mulled wine at @pangcheeseshop So lucky to live here!  Check out my stories for more!
