Want a fresh new take on the traditional red and green decor for your living room? Get inspired with my living room Christmas decor ideas in today’s post.

 

Christmas Tree Decor Ideas

The Christmas tree is my favorite place to incorporate all the subtleties of the room’s decor. Think of the tree as the focal point. There are so many tips for decorating a Christmas tree, but here are some of my favorite ideas when it comes to the living room Christmas tree.

1. Incorporate an unexpected, yet nostalgic element to the room alongside the tree.

A rocking horse brings in a vintage element and makes the tree area feel more cozy rather than just a stand alone.

2. Use wood bead garland on the tree.

This wood bead garland is the perfect element to add to the tree in a

Looking for simple Halloween decor in traditional black and orange? Get inspired to add a little bit of spooky to your Halloween decor this year.

I like to keep my Halloween decor simple and this year I chose to do a traditional black and orange theme. I sprinkled in little touches of halloween decor throughout my kitchen and dining room and I love the simplicity of it while still making it feel festive!

Keeping Halloween Decor Simple

I’m so glad I decided to add a little Halloween decor to the kitchen this year. I really loved using the black, white, and orange colors in my kitchen. I stopped doing Halloween decor when my kids got older but I really enjoyed decorating it this year. Guess I’ll have to keep doing it from now on!

Learn how to make this easy and delicious New Mexican version. Get the family recipe for old-fashioned enchiladas!

Old Fashioned Enchiladas

This recipe is another family favorite recipe that was passed down to me from my husband’s Grandma Jolley. I’ve shared a handful of her recipes here and this one is probably her most loved and always served along with her Strawberry Cream Cheese Pie Recipe.

This enchilada recipe is not your traditional enchilada recipe. I’m not sure where Grandma Jolley got this recipe or if she just made it up but she lived in New Mexico her entire life and this must be some variation of a New Mexican Enchilada. I don’t know where the Old Fashioned Enchilada name came from but this is what Granda Jolley called it.

For this recipe, you first make the meat sauce and then you layer that onto corn or flour tortillas, and

Every July I set a bee or beehive-themed table to celebrate Utah’s Pioneer Day holiday. Utah is the Beehive State and every year on the 24th of July they celebrate the Pioneers that crossed the plains and settled in Utah. I was out of town for this year’s holiday, but I had all this adorable bee-themed table decor so I decided to set the table and use it as my summer
