Is it just me or did August fly by? I was busy, busy working on sourcing elements for my 2021 holiday decor.

Moral of the story: if you see something you like while you are out shopping or browsing online: get it!

If I had an unlimited budget, I would absolutely be back buying more. Those Christmas magnolias are absolutely stunning.

Another channel I’ve been watching for ages on YouTube is Trendy Tree. They have so many great products and I always love seeing how they style things. Not to mention, they have some great holiday decorating tutorials you can use with any product. Here’s my Trendy Tree haul – beware! It’s very sparkly!

And the mega haul! I LOVE finding super unique and different pieces for my holiday and seasonal decor. Sometimes the best way to find those pieces are in unexpected places. In my case, I found some real treasures at my local Ross, some fantastic finds on Ebay, and some fundamental pieces from my local Hobby Lobby. Here’s what that haul looks like:
