I’m not sure if they’re 2026 decor trends or resolutions or just ideas, but these came to me as I was thinking about how I love my home more than ever these days and I hope you can, too. You find your joy but for me, lately it’s been: - Family photos in classic silver tabletop frames (remember when we shunned tabletop frames? I used to have zero) - The curtains that took me a year to pick (but now I have in three rooms with slight variation) - Antique and vintage ones but, like, nicer ones. Not shabby farmhouse, but classics I feel like a grownup when I buy ❤️ - Celebrating when I come home. My home is right for me and my family; isn’t that an incredible thing?! What are you doing in your home this year?! 👏 P.S. Use my code SUZANNAHSTANLEY for 25% off your @twopagescurtains order. Mine are the Belgian linen with trim, linked in this post!

So excited for this reveal because this room has come such a long way. My friend's living room was just not giving the style that she wanted for her fun family-friendly home.

First I taught her to wallpaper: we covered the entire walls in this lovely little floral pattern from A-Street Prints.

We replaced the builder blinds with these lovely natural bamboo roman shades and linen curtains (use my code Suzannah26 for 26% off!), added a much larger wool rug, of course some fun accessories including white and brass and gold, and some warm wood and bamboo and rattan tones because there were so many light colors in here.

My friend loves a light and fresh style and this is her front room so it's very important for it to feel welcoming and like her. We are so happy with how this room turned out and love the texture the wallpaper added!

Headed to my Christmas present massage 🎉 and wearing the coziest sweater. Been wearing this or the red one basically nonstop this holiday break. So warm, all natural fibers, plus so fun! And they come in so many great colors.

Christmas got its moment… and now January is here with fresh sheets and my favorite January palette.

I always love blues this time of year. They feel calm, fresh, and maybe just structured enough after all the holiday cozy. Is blue and white groundbreaking? Absolutely not. 😂

But whatever changes you’re making as you take down the tree and Xmas… It doesn’t have to be original! It just has to feel good!

If you want your home to feel more intentional this year, you do *not* need to buy trendier things. Having a beautiful and carefully designed home is about making a few smarter, foundational choices.

1️⃣ Size matters.
Undersized rugs and too-narrow curtains instantly make a room feel like a first apartment. Going bigger (even when it feels bigger than you neeeed) creates that grounded, intentional look designers rely on. I finally got a 22’ long rug for my living room this year, and these pleated curtains on this 7’ wide window can actually close!

2️⃣ Materials matter so much, and you can’t usually get the good stuff on Amazon without careful searching.
Natural fibers, real wood, stone, linen, wool—these bring warmth and depth that no trendy, cheaper, big box finish can fake. Plus they hold up and even look better over time!

3️⃣ Mix sources.
The most interesting homes don’t come from one store. Blending old with new, vintage with retail, and high with low is what gives a space character and that lived-in, collected feel.

None of this requires a total overhaul. It’s about editing, upgrading the right pieces, and letting your home feel layered instead of rushed. If you feel inspired to make changes to your home in 2026, start here!

A tad overdressed for my suburban errands before dinner. 🙃 Quince silk skirt and incredible quality wool coat, plus still loving these suede boots!

#LTKootd #LTKHoliday #LTKSeasonal

Who’s ready to get out of Christmas break mode?! Trying to get glamorous for the beginning of the year and I love navy for January. Love this silk skirt from Quince and this cashmere structured sweater. The most incredible part of this outfit is this Italian wool double breasted coat which is a lovely 100% wool. (I cannot believe the quality on their wool coats for the price.)

Clearly we can go millennial mom uniform in these combos or a little more professional pairing this structured casual sweater with some jeans.

It's such an upgrade to use high quality materials like these cashmere, yak wool, wool, and silk pieces and they're all at amazing prices thanks to Quince's methods. Check them out linked in my LTK!

We’re trying a new tradition this year of doing stockings upstairs in our room, so I hung these larger ones on the banister. Micah’s parents had a fireplace in their room and always did stockings there (for all 7, yes 7 children) and I’m all for trying new special things at Christmas and I’m happy he can bring in one of his traditions. ❤️ So the stockings in the mantel are just decorative (and Lucy plays with them), and I’ll have to just hope no one wakes up in the middle of the night and walks in on stuffed stockings. Anyone else do stockings upstairs?

#LTKHoliday #LTKHome #LTKSeasonal

Panic dump of all the photos. I haven’t shared yet because IT’S ALMOST CHRISTMAS!!! That reminds me, I still need to buy stocking stuffers.

#LTKHome #LTKHoliday #LTKSeasonal

Stills of the home I love so much decorated for Christmas. So grateful. For the tiny percentage of you who want longer form content, and for the people who don’t follow me on here, I shared a blog post this week with all my Christmas decor images, including some you probably haven’t seen yet and sources. Up on the blog now. Merry Christmas, world ❤️🎄

#LTKSeasonal #LTKHoliday #LTKHome

I feel a little ridiculous hanging garland on my headboard but… Sparks joy. Something that never really occurred to me until recently, but I think we millennials and influencers just keep coming up with more and more options! Holiday cheer everywhere! Would you try this?

#LTKSeasonal #LTKHoliday #LTKHome

Still just in love with our wrapping this year! I did one paper per kid, one for the grown-ups, one for my parents… Love these fun vintage/classic patterns from rifle! I love the Nutcracker theme! All 30% off right now!

#LTKHoliday #LTKmomlife #LTKSeasonal

Basically, constantly wearing one of these amazing sweaters. So many great colors!

Plus these high waisted barrel cords are so fun!

#LTKSeasonal #LTKFindsUnder50

Enjoying the warm glow of the tree so much it makes even the dark rainy days bearable. That’s kind of the idea of Christmas decor, isn’t it?! Just savoring these days. Not looking forward to taking it down in… a little over two weeks, wow!

Rifle paper co wrapping and ornaments are 30% off!

#LTKHome #LTKHoliday #LTKSeasonal

Basically only interested in cozy sweaters at this point. This one is yak wool! So soft and warm, breathable, feels so nice! And love the price.

#LTKSeasonal #LTKFindsUnder100

For literally years I kept the vacuum in front of this window, which meant I had to work the curtains around it every night when I close them, and move it for photos, and sometimes we tripped on it! In preparation for Christmas I did some toy storage shuffling, and since Lucy didn’t play with the actual play kitchen part anymore, just the food, I made room in the sideboard dresser (fabulous kid/craft storage) and tucked the vacuum in the corner. Don’t know why it took me that long to figure that out. What’s your duh home solution it took you too long to figure out? 🤪
P.S. Now this vacuum comes in white, which would blend even better… I linked the current version of it, I’ve found it to be better and more affordable than Shark or Roomba!

#LTKSeasonal #LTKmomlife #LTKHome

I got this adorable guestbook last year with the intention of using it to write our own holiday memories. Unfortunately I didn’t get to it and it sat somewhere in the dining room until about June, but it’s back out and I’m excited to have the kids help me write about the ice-skating, gingerbread house making, crafts with friends, looking at Christmas lights, and other fun things we do in December! Plus, it is such a cute embroidered pattern and such great quality.

#LTKSeasonal #LTKHoliday

I put together this basement guestroom for holiday guests with a free headboard from Facebook and primarily things I already had. It’s not perfect, it’s a little funky, and I’m not sure if that is the right place for those lamps… But it’s cozy and welcoming!

#LTKHoliday #LTKHome #LTKSeasonal

I was dreading this task and finally did it 🤪 Reusing a lot of what I had but I did recently upgrade our stockings to classic needlepoint ones, and get some gold stocking holders. I love doing something a liiittle different every year on the mantel! Do you have greenery on yours or something else?

#LTKSeasonal #LTKHoliday

Growing up we always had real trees and my ex husband always insisted on one. They have their pros but I was definitely frustrated with the pine needles everywhere, the constant watering, picking them out in the cold/rain, spending the money every year… but I felt guilty getting a fake one for the downsides they have, and the perception!! But 3 years ago was my first Christmas as a single mom, no husband to judge me or help me, and I went for it. And it was so much easier. Now I put my tree up in the beginning of November and enjoy the glow for almost 2 whole (dark, dreary) months! I love that it’s made the season longer and more joyful for me. But honestly, to each their own!!

Linking this tree, fave ornaments, and nutcracker tree skirt!

#LTKSeasonal #LTKHoliday

Our classic stockings are 15% off for another day! I wanted needlepoint forever and these are cotton and affordable!

#LTKSeasonal #LTKHoliday

Those magical quiet moments at home during the holidays… doesn’t matter if you’re decked out with Ralph Lauren Christmas or Nancy Meyers Christmas vibes, in fact I think I pref my combination of things I’ve acquired over the years plus playful fun prints for the kids (and my kid at heart at the holidays). Grateful!

#LTKHoliday #LTKSeasonal

Everyone’s favorite part of my classic Christmas decor tour reel was the plaid throws! I rounded up some good ones. The best are the washable wool but absent that, go for slightly thicker with a finer gauge if you can. Festive and cozy! And most are on sale this weekend!

#LTKHoliday #LTKSeasonal #LTKCyberWeek

Realized I’ve been going for a classic Christmas the past few years and if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it! Red ribbon, wreaths, plaid, nutcrackers, gingerbread houses… I’ve loved them for years and they’re sticking around. This year I added a few vintage thrifted things like the mini village toy shop, went a little crazier than usual with the ribbon, and am still trying to figure out where to hang the advent calendar. Linking some favorite pieces on sale this weekend!

#LTKHoliday #LTKCyberWeek #LTKHome

I loved this advent calendar so much when I saw it last year, but it sold out before I could get one! It’s back and so cute. I love nutcrackers so basically this whole rifle collection is my fave! 30% off this weekend!

#LTKCyberWeek #LTKHoliday #LTKSeasonal

Getting festive! Burnout velvet, washable silk skirt, warm and elegant suede boots… great winter dinner or party look!

#LTKSeasonal #LTKFindsUnder100 #LTKHoliday

I bet you already knew all of these, but maybe you didn’t realize that put together they make a lovely, timeless, welcoming Christmas home! These are seriously no fail! I love the wreaths I started adding a couple years ago, and the red! Goes with everything. And plaid. Ahh classic Christmas is just the best.

#LTKHoliday #LTKSaleAlert #LTKCyberWeek

Stumbled upon this COTTON sweater and I’m in love! On-trend dark brown, but it’s mostly cotton so it’s not too hot like the super fuzzy ones. It’s an oversized fit so you don’t need to size up. So affordable too!

#LTKCyberWeek #LTKSaleAlert

Can’t believe the price on these sneaks for black Friday! Been loving these this fall as a fun way to be comfortable. I sized almost a full size down. So many great colors!

Sweatshirt is super comfy and on sale, these are my favorite jeans that I think I need to order another pair of because I wear them nonstop. I cut these off, but they are full length. Also on great sale!

#LTKFindsUnder100 #LTKCyberWeek #LTKFindsUnder50

These stocking hangers are the safest option if you have kids and pets around! I’ve had black ones for years but I just replaced them with these gold ones for a more classic look. Plus, I’m so excited about our new needlepoint stockings, they are so affordable and also just classic!

#LTKCyberWeek #LTKHoliday #LTKHome

I was sure there had to be some scientific reason, so I looked it up. It’s called “context-dependent memory” or cue-based positive recall; when you pull out the mugs each year or choose one instead of a regular mug, it pulls up cozy, joyful, connected moments which releases dopamine. It’s the same reason traditions like music make us feel calm and festive, but it’s cool when a physical element of my home can have that impact too. Another reason our homes matter!

#LTKmorningroutine #LTKSeasonal #LTKHoliday

This tee is the best for layering under sweaters, or just with shorts for summer, I have it in 6 colors! It’s on Black Friday sale for $6 and an extra 15% off today. Plus these are the greatest jeans, so comfy I wore them to work from home today and ordered them in yet another wash. Super flattering, extra high waist, wide leg!

#LTKFindsUnder50 #LTKCyberWeek

My (stash tea connoisseur) former mother-in-law introduced me to this tea and I’m glad I finally found it again!

So lovely! Cocoa shells, peppermint, lavender.

With my rifle paper co Christmas mug of course!

#LTKHoliday #LTKSeasonal #LTKHome

Sharing my new cute candle tree lights (currently on a great black Friday sale) and some of our favorite tournaments from rifle paper Co.! I love a classic, fun tree!
