"You can't decorate for Christmas yet, there are still holidays between now and then!"

I truly was ready to decorate for Christmas before the trick-or-treaters showed up at the door on Halloween. I announced this to the fiance, the title of the blog his response. I've held out until now, but it's not going to last much longer! Though I love fall, Christmas is by far my favorite season for which to decorate. Break out the garlands and wreaths and ribbon!

Here are some of my inspirations this season:

I am obsessed with the monogramed (shock!) wreaths. I am planning to incorporate this concept into my wedding and also like it for Christmas. Though this will be my future last initial I will hold out this year!

These are also from Ballard Design. I want to make the one on the bottom left, with the single ornament. Pretty sure I can.
I love Ballard Design's entire catalog. The prices? Noooot so much. I do recommend all my blogging friends in the Atlanta area check out their outlet, however. I got a great $150 rug for $40 this summer. 


I wish. Thank you Southern Living for making me dream big. 

This was my front door last year: 


Stay tuned for this year's!
