2017 Holiday Home Tour

Have you ever seen a Holiday Home Tour with an unmade bed and laundry? Well, you're about to! Cleaning a house with two toddlers here 24/7 is dang near impossible, let alone decorating and staging one for a home tour, so this is the least staged home tour you may see today.Speaking of which, I've partnered with some amazing Canadian bloggers to show you how we've decorated our homes for the holidays, and you'll want to keep your eyes peeled the rest of the week too because there will be more every day this week!So let's get this party started, shall we? You might remember this entryway from the One Room Challenge, and if you want to see a bit more, check out the reveal post!The dining room is also fairly new, and you can look for a post with tips on how I painted this buffalo check wall coming soon!Other than the tree, I added several wreaths, because if I can't decorate a Christmas tree (thanks to 2-year old toddlers), I WILL put up all the wreaths. In the kitchen, I added some more greenery and a wreath on the window above the sink.A simple faux pine branch in a vase on the island and a mini tree by the coffee maker, and we're done.The living room also has a tree with no decorations and a few cute things on the mantle. I think this year it's a lot more about Winter decor than Christmas decor.Now, you've seen the toys and the many cleared surfaces all over ythe house (because I'm keeping it real, and TODDLERS!!)Are you ready for the messy bed and laundry?And now for the best picture in this entire blog post...There you have it, you guys. Real life with a dash of Holiday decor.Now make sure you head over to see all of the other Holiday tours happening today. You can bet I'll be hopping over to see what beautiful inspiration these ladies have!
