Hello sweets friends, how are you doing this busy holiday season? It has been a whirlwind here at Storybook Cottage. I am looking forward to the quiet days of Christmas that are soon to come. Here’s to Friday Favorites The Light Within.
Friday Favorites The Light Within
I love seeing all the holiday homes. I have to say that the lighting in each and every image on the Golden Boys and Me home tour is absolutely spectacular!
Elegant Cranberry Holiday Punch
I can’t wait to serve this gorgeous punch at my upcoming vintage treat exchange party.
A Gilded Age Christmas
Marble House, the Newport cottage where Gilded Age members of society used to vacation, is all decked out for the holidays.
Part II, featuring The Breakers, can be found HERE.
What To Watch
The Mr. and I just finished All The Light We Cannot See on Netflix. Although it is different from the novel it is something wonderful to watch.
A Smile For You
This darling Instagram reel will make your heart happy. The entire account is full of joy.
The Light Of My Life
Tomorrow my better half, the light saber of my life, will celebrate his milestone 60th. I hope you will join me in wishing Mr. Decor a very Happy Birthday!
I think those of you who are longtime readers know that this man is my everything. So much of what is created for Decor To Adore comes from his hands. I can’t wait to show you what he is working on right now.
It’s been a little over a year since his accident and we are so amazed by his recovery. He will forever have some limitations with his left hand, but he truly is a walking miracle!
Mr. Decor is a quiet man who possesses a fantastic sense of humor. He makes me laugh until my sides split several times a week.
I am blessed beyond measure and I thank him as much as I can for being such a wonderful husband and father.
He wanted only a small celebration with the people he treasures the most so that is what he is getting.
