decorate for the holidays, check.

Now that Thanksgiving is over with, it's time for the yearly "what are you doing with your tree" conversation with my mom. I'm not going to lie, the conversation actually started sometime in October but it felt too early to start posting about it.

This year, I decided to act like a department store, skip over fall decorating entirely and head straight for the good stuff. Christmas. The holidays. Kris Kringle. Rudolph. Winter Wonderland. I can't get enough.

In fact, even though I'm super crunched for space, I've collected three (count them, 3) giant Tupperware bins FULL of holiday garb. One Tupperware is designated completely for ornaments and I make a game out of trying to fit every single one of them on my tree. This year? I won. nbd.

And every year, on the first Sunday of December, I bring everything up from storage, flip on the Pandora Christmas station, grab a bottle glass of wine and begin transforming my apartment into a modern day version of Santa's workshop. This Sunday was no different.

Here's what I've come up with. Stay tuned for tips, tricks and how-tos that will be posted throughout the week. Now if only I could find a way to sing christmas carols on key... Enjoy!
