We’ve been assembling the kids’ class Christmas treats for their school Christmas Party this week. I found these hot chocolate stirrers at HomeGoods & that was the jumping off point for some cozy little hot cocoa goody bags. ☕🎄 We added some Christmas chocolates & a package of Nestle hot cocoa to the stirrers. The Christmas chocolates came from HomeGoods and the snowflake bags and ribbon from Hobby Lobby, but I’ll link some similar options below if you want to put together your own sweet treats. Another easy option in lieu of hot chocolate stirrers is a candy cane LTKSeasonal LTKKids LTKHoliday

My nightstands are currently on sale at Wayfair for the lowest price I’ve seen in a while! 🙌 I customized mine by swapping out the single center ring pull for two side ball knobs, and it made such a difference in the look. Here’s how I did it:

1️⃣ Filled the center hole with Kwikwood epoxy putty (apply from the back and gently smooth it as flush as possible to the front of the drawer face without getting any on the drawer face which would require sanding. Sanding would take the sheen off the drawer face so avoid this. Kwikwood doesn’t shrink like typical hardware fillers do this will help it stay flush.
2️⃣ Color the putty once it is hardened. You can use a black wood marker that I linked below (what my friend Mel @coryell.home did) did with great success) or leftover black paint—Sherwin Williams Tricorn Black in satin sheen—which is what I did. It may take more than 1 coat allowing it to dry between coats.
3️⃣ New holes were drilled 5 1/2” from the edge of the drawer and centered on the height of the drawer face

Holiday Ready Kitchen Counter Styling 🎄 In the kitchen, I love adding Christmas touches — but when counter space is limited, it’s nice when those festive moments can be both functional and pretty. A Christmas cookie jar, tree-shaped wood trivets for hot dishes, and Christmas-colored cookbooks all help make the space feel cheerful.🍪🌲

Note: the wooden round riser was a yard sale find & the live rosemary bush came from Trader Joe’s and I repotted it in this terracotta planter I had. I’ve linked similar below!

Wishing you a cozy & joy-filled season. 🤍 Rachel

Modern traditional bedroom inspiration 🤎
I love the moody, earthy mix in this space. The deep plum tones help ground the room, and the black accents add that timeless, refined touch.

Christmas trees make for some cozy nights 🤍

I’m loving this silk tie-front blouse from Quince! I wore it for our family photos, and it’s quickly become one I keep reaching for — so comfortable, elevated, and the wine-red color is perfect for the holidays. I paired it with one of my favorite dark-wash straight-leg jeans (also from Quince) for a classic, pulled-together look that works for so many occasions. 🤍✨ I’m 5’5” and wear a size 29 & in seam 28 for reference. The top is a medium

This year I tried my hand at DIYing some real garland around our front door using clippings I picked up from our local Christmas tree farm’s discard pile — and it worked so well! If DIY isn’t your thing, I’ll link the live garland I bought from Lowe’s and used last year, along with the rest of our front porch decor. The wreath is also a simple DIY and was such a fun way to bring in that classic, natural look. 🤍🌲

Walmart living room inspiration mood board ✨ If you’re wanting to create an elevated traditional space with soft touches of blue and timeless silhouettes, I pulled together this affordable look using pieces from Walmart.

This upholstered accent chair (the one from our Texas house!) has such a beautiful silhouette, and it pairs perfectly with the floral print rug, gold chandelier, round wood coffee table, ornate gold wall mirror, and botanical art prints. The small boxwood topiary adds that classic finishing touch

#LTKHome

A look at our bedroom tree ✨ This is our second year with this Balsam Hill tree from Lowe’s and it truly is the easiest setup I’ve ever had. The lights connect through the center poles, so no extra cords to fuss with—and it requires zero fluffing!

Since our bedroom already leans into blue tones, I stayed within that palette and mixed in some of our fall florals in soft plum for depth. I added white and glass baubles along with a few clip-on candles for that cozy glow. It all feels calm, classic, and just a touch moody for winter. 💙🎄

#LTKHome #LTKHoliday #LTKSeasonal

I bought these velvet ornaments from Amazon last Christmas and loved them so much on our tree. The earthy tones blend so seamlessly with our holiday color story, I grabbed a second set for the boys’ room tree this year. Such an easy way to create a cohesive, cozy look. 🤍🎄

#LTKHoliday #LTKHome #LTKSeasonal

This year, I added some garland over the doorway to our pantry, and it brings the most beautiful glow in the evenings. I wrapped a battery-powered strand of lights around it, and the soft twinkle feels so cozy. The garland itself was from Target years ago and has since been discontinued, but I’m linking some similar options that give the same look.

Some fall and winter pillow cover combinations from Woven Nook 🛋️
I love bringing in seasonal touches through throw pillows—it’s such an easy way to shift the mood of a room without a full refresh. These covers have those rich, cozy colors and subtle patterns that feel perfect for the fall and winter months.

I also wanted to mention the Woven Nook premium faux-down inserts because they’re truly some of the best I’ve used. They have that perfect “chop,” but they’re also incredibly soft and comfortable. These are the pillows my kids always grab when they curl up on the couch, and honestly… I don’t blame them. 🤎

#LTKFindsUnder100 #LTKSeasonal #LTKHome

Our cedar garland is currently on sale just over under $35 for a 9’ length which is what I used here. It’s so full and has a beautiful drape. I layered it over a Norfolk garland

This is my third year using these flameless Christmas tree clip candles from Amazon, and I still love the old-world, traditional charm they bring. For a cozy, intimate look I’ll turn off the tree lights and enjoy just the candle glow, or for full magic I keep both on. They run on AAA batteries, have a remote, and even include a flicker setting!

#LTKSeasonal #LTKHome #LTKHoliday

This year I added these dried oranges to our Christmas decorations. I’ve had a few attempts at DIYing this in the past and it has not been successful 🤪 so this year I decided to just order them, and they’ve added that beautiful old-world, nostalgic feel to our Christmas decor. Oranges have actually been tied to Christmas for centuries—originally symbolizing the gold St. Nicholas gave in the old legend—and later becoming a treasured winter treat during the Victorian era. That little bit of history makes them feel even more special tucked into garlands and trees. They come with some twine, but I used metal hooks to attach them to our garland and the twine for our tree. 🎄🍊

Woven wicker vases at every price point! 🌾 I love the natural texture and warmth rattan and wicker vases bring into a space. These classic silhouettes are perfect for seasonal stems, fresh flowers, or simply styled on their own as a beautiful statement piece. Timeless, versatile, and a great way to add a touch of organic charm to your home decor.

I love the style of this star! ✨ I bought it at Target years ago and it’s been discontinued, but I found a beautiful similar option at World Market. The antique gold and mirrored finish make it such a gorgeous tree topper and perfect for a classic holiday look. I’ve linked it here for you! 🎄

One more look at our King Flocked 9’ tree from King of Christmas. The snowy branches are so beautiful on their own, but I still couldn’t help myself. I added a mix of faux florals and berries, velvet ribbons, gold beading, and some of our special family ornaments. It feels magical every time I walk by. ✨

I’ve been using the Salt & Stone deodorant for the last month and I’m sold. It’s aluminum-free (non-negotiable for me), has 48-hour protection, and the probiotics actually help neutralize odor. I’ve truly been impressed and plan to stick with it moving forward! With other deodorants I can usually smell myself by the end of the day 😄🫣 but this one has been a totally different experience.

Currently on sale 20% off for Black Friday! A great gift!
