Snag These Holiday Finds & Engaging Quotes Now

Even if we don’t need a darn thing (in the name of mindfully simplifying or heartfully preserving the ‘holy’ in the days), maybe something unexpected within this parade of festive Christmas decor finds will speak to you or inspire a craft.
The Reason We Celebrate
Before we gaze upon whimsical trappings or giggle – my heart is turned toward all who may feel an ache with the mere mention of the holidays.

Maybe something precious has been lost and you find yourself limping through November and December with a fractured heart. Perhaps laughter eludes you.
The Sweetest Gift is Knowing Where You Are
I’m with you. I am thinking about the loss of our dearest Tina, whose soul flew home with the angels in the worst July on record for our family. She will be missed deeply this Christmas, yet we know she has been absorbed into the fragrant petals of the Sweetest Rose where Infinite Love blooms.

My hand is extended if you also grieve, and there are truly no words. So let’s allow the sounds of music and laughter to echo and honor the beauty which lives on purposefully in another realm.
This is for you…sealed with so much tenderness.

Options I see at Target and Michael’s are not quite right in texture or size. Pottery Barn (above) offered the perfect one (medium was 7″, large was 10″).
For under 20 bucks, this one’s not quite as tall…

In Case You’re Over 40 and Have Been Humming But Forgot the Lyrics…
Haul out the holly;
Put up the tree before my spirit falls again.
Fill up the stocking,
I may be rushing things, but deck the halls again now.
For we need a little Christmas
Right this very minute,
Candles in the window,
Carols at the spinet.
Yes, we need a little Christmas
Right this very minute.
It hasn’t snowed a single flurry,
But Santa, dear, we’re in a hurry;
So climb down the chimney;
Put up the brightest string of lights I’ve ever seen.
Slice up the fruitcake;
It’s time we hung some tinsel on that evergreen bough.
For I’ve grown a little leaner,
Grown a little colder, Grown a little sadder, Grown a little older.
And I need a little angel
Sitting on my shoulder,
Need a little Christmas now.
DON’T MISS any of the LOVELY HOLIDAY INSPIRATION right here!!!
Peace to you right where you are.

Love the set of red and white striped kitchen towels. I use these as gift wrap for wine bottles so the hostess gets an extra bonus. Place towel vertically. Put wine bottle about halfway down on the towel. Fold sides inward. Fold bottom up to the top of the bottle. Tie with ribbon.

Michele,
You are so welcome for the feature at Thursday Favorite Things. I love that saying about the old bags with other old bags in them just cracked me up because I have 2 bags in the garage filled with old bags. I guess I am a Mom.I loved all of those sayings, even the pistachio one too.
Have a lovely week.
Hugs,
Bev

Thanks so much for being so fun, Bev! Peace to you.
Beautiful post, Michelle! I do find myself wondering how your son is doing and hoping and praying that he (and you and all of your family) are improving and feeling better going into this unusual holiday season!

Thanks so much for thinking of us. He is doing well and is all moved into his new home. We have all recovered completely from the virus. I am having lots of good days and so grateful for all the prayers. Hopefully 2021 will bring more wellness and hope! Peace to you.
Love all the quotes but The spring mix quote is so right on!!!!
