This is the first time Christmas decorations have made their way into our bedroom and it’s definitely going to become a tradition because this has absolutely made life better. \u00a0It started with my years of inability to commit to getting a large real Christmas tree, then meeting the perfect mini tree at a tree farm last week, then putting it on our dresser, then deciding\u00a0let’s keep going why not.<\/p>\n

I\u00a0continually put a ton of effort into keeping our bedroom a sanctuary, free of clutter and the chaos of my blog projects\u00a0that have taken over almost every other part of our home, but not here. \u00a0This is the safe space, which in a weird way meant that here is where we can really enjoy some festive decorations without the mess of everything else that’s going on. \u00a0I say “weird” because I’m not entirely sure how to say what I’m trying to say, haha! \u00a0 Am I making any sense??<\/p>\n

While there are traditions of decorating mantels (don’t have one) or porches (don’t have one) or entryways (tackling that one next),\u00a0the bedroom made the most sense for letting out my compulsion\u00a0to Christmas-fy things and maximize enjoyment of them. \u00a0After all, this is where I start and end my day, and it’s so good to see this cutie little Christmas tree\u00a0first thing and last thing.<\/p>\n

I decorated her with pom pom ornaments\u00a0and battery powered shimmer lights. \u00a0She’s sitting in a holder I got from the tree farm that looks like a green dog bowl, which is fine, but I covered it up by wrapping an old scarf around it. \u00a0I also used the scarf to tuck in and hide the battery pack in the back for the lights.<\/p>\n

These mini wood Christmas trees are one of my favorite DIYs from last year and are really really really easy to make (you can check out that tutorial\u00a0here<\/a><\/strong>). \u00a0I almost didn’t remember to give them a come-back this year if it weren’t for wanting to\u00a0decorate this dresser. \u00a0I LOVE the simplicity of displaying a few good ornaments, and it’s also great for displaying collected ones that didn’t make it on to the tree.<\/p>\n

I slipped in some pine behind the mirror because I thought it would look really cute next to the wood trees. \u00a0I didn’t secure them in anyway, just the space between the mirror and the wall is holding them in place and if you accidentally swiped them they’d probably fall out, ha! \u00a0But so far so good.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

This sight gives me pure joy and really didn’t take much to put together. \u00a0I’d say that I’m so satisfied with this Christmas-fication that I’m almost done with bringing in all things Christmas. \u00a0I’m no done yet though ;) \u00a0Have you been decking out your home too? \u00a0Are your decorations contained to only one or a few places?<\/p>\n
