Happy Sunday




O holy night!
The stars are brightly shining
It is the night of our dear Savior's birth.
Long lay the world in sin and error pining
Till He appear'd and the soul felt its worth.
A thrill of hope, the weary soul rejoices
For yonder breaks a new and glorious morn.
















We also wanted to introduce one of our newest sponsors:


They offer beautiful fine quality contemporary natural area rugs online and also have custom options! Be sure to check them out


I hope you all are having a wonderful weekend!

Our Master Bedroom with some Christmas Touches



We added some cozy touches to our master bedroom for the winter and a little bit of sparkle for Christmas. The first thing we did was add this gorgeous French Market Quilt in the color Limestone from Soft Surroundings. It is even more beautiful in real life. We also added two of the Cable Knit Euro Shams in white. We got two of them last year and they are my all time favorite pillows! We used the ones we got last year down on our sofa and love now having another set to have on our bed. They are so cozy and I love the buttons (which I think are technically the backside but I love how they look so much I always use them as the front). I love how these touches add a cozy touch to last through the winter. 

And then for the Christmas holidays we added a few little sparkly touches like the gold ornaments.

We found all the wrapping paper and ribbon at HomeGoods. 




The beautiful angel canvas is from the talented Deann




The details on the quilt are so beautiful! And I love the other side of it as well. In fact, I think I may switch it to that side at some point.







The ornaments are all from HomeGoods and as well as the tree and the gold tray. The boxes are from the Sugar Paper line at Target and the beautiful trophy urn is from The Arrow's Nest.


Love this trophy urn from The Arrowed Nest and the jewelry box from HomeGoods.
