this week’s color story is a little different in that it’s also about a very simple kind of Christmas. here in California, we’re back in lockdown, so i will be solo this year. my family has canceled their visit and so decorations seem a little unnecessary. however, i think we all could use a little mood-boosting, so a few decorations might go a long way. i actually prefer this kind of holiday decor, it just feels more homey and homemade to me. i also searched etsy for decor and gift wrap ideas to help support small businesses this holiday. if you can, even online, please consider supporting these small businesses so they don’t go under during these economically challenging times. that could even include buying gift cards from small cafes and restaurants so that we can support them until they’re able to open back up. anyway, just a few ideas for a very simple christmas!
