Christmas / Cozy, these two words play well together…in our hemisphere Christmas usually means a cooling trend.  Even in the desert, December is cold at night.

What better way to enjoy the season then wrapped in the comfort of your own home, fire in the grate (if possible) and a throw at your feet.  To me these rooms are cozy and inviting by design and furnishings.

My home version of cozy…this is before the tree went up.

Here is our tree…

Seeing is believing, but sometimes the most real things in the world are the things we can’t see.

I hope you are allowing yourself some time just to enjoy the season.  This final week will be hectic to be sure, be safe and have fun in all that you do.
