Piano Holiday Decorating

This post was sponsored by Target, all opinions expressed are my own - as always!

Eddie recently surprised me by bringing home a piano he found sitting on the side of the road in our neighborhood (he somehow got it on his two skateboards and rolled it to our house by himself - best surprise EVER). We’ve been spending time over the past few weeks fixing it up and it’s been such a fulfilling project. Judging by the amount of dirt/dust we found inside and out (and how out of tune it was!) we think it’s been sitting in someone’s garage for decades. But we cleaned it up, disinfected it, hired movers to carry it up and down the stairs into our house, had it tuned, and have been giving it a lot of love.

Floral Christmas Tree

Our first Christmas in the new house! I’ve been excited to celebrate in our lil Hobbit House all year, and I’ve really been looking forward to having a Christmas tree in the living room. However, I was a little nervous about how we’d make it fit with all our furniture. I also knew I wanted to incorporate florals into the tree, but wanted it to be subtle and easy to decorate - while still fitting in with our current decor. Cue this fab White Rose and Calla Lily Garland. Faux florals already arranged so all I have to do is throw a few on the tree? Yes please! Easy peasy and reusable for future years. I purchased 4 of them and in hindsight, could have actually used 5 or 6 for maximum impact, but I still love how they look! I bought them planning on incorporating our holiday ornaments into the tree as well, but when I sent Eddie into our garage to find them, he came back empty handed. Haaaaa! Oh, Eddie. I didn’t have the energy to go hunting through all the boxes we have in there myself, and I actually really like the simplicity of the garlands alone with the tree lights - so this year’s tree is remaining ornament-less.
