Fa La La La La!!!
Are your halls… decked?
Today I am…
Decorating for the holidays with HomeGoods!
If you are anything like me, I am never done decorating for the holidays. There is always something I can tweak.
*Thanks to HomeGoods providing the gift cards to purchase of these decor items for this post. Now I am able to do more holiday decorating and share it with you! P.S. Don’t go anywhere… there’s a HomeGoods giveaway at the end of this post!
So. I went to HomeGoods the other day. CHECK OUT MY HAUL!
THIS ONE IS EASY! Simply choose 5 images you love, bada-boom, bada-bing, the Stylescope graders pop out your own style! I’m not going to show you what I chose… NO CHEATING! But when my choices were graded I was given this “grade”:
I giggled when that result popped up. I couldn’t have graded myself better… GLAM AND FUNK + FARM AND URBAN – BELIEVE THAT!!! My self described style is country peppered with contemporary. I love me my simple black picture frames and straight lines, but I also can’t resist baskets and roosters.
Abd you know what? It works!
I was curious, so I clicked through to learn more about the style descriptions I got. Ladies and gentlemen… Farmhouse Glam and Urban Funk side by side:
And…
TAH-DAH!
Some shiny, some rustic, some straight lines…
I love the mix of colors, textures, and styles… a little glitter, a little flare (what fun glass jars, right?!), a little country, yet not too much. Now I have two kitchen table options… jars filled with fun, yet basic ornaments or a country Christmas.
I brought in some items I had already (red bird, ornaments, greenery, thrifted gold candle stand, & berry sprig), but when I went to HomeGoods I also kept my eyes open for creative ways to use non-holiday themed items as well… like the owl. And the clock (which is sitting on my piano with some trees I already had!).
Right now, I am loving the blue that is so popular in Christmas decor… so when I saw that owl, it was a no-brainer. I KNEW she would find the perfect spot among the holiday decorations as well as find another prominent place in my home once the holiday decor comes down.
You know what I learned? I learned jute place mats look really cute on a light, gold shimmery table cloth… country mouse and city mouse meet again!
I love this so much…
Now I need to choose, which goes where. I think the glass jars are going to go on the kitchen island, but light was better for taking pictures at the kitchen table…
So… how about that giveaway? HomeGoods has given me TWO $50 HomeGoods gift cards to give to TWO of my wonderful people here! Check out the Rafflecopter widget for full entry information. Mandatory entry is leaving a blog comment about what YOUR style is by taking the Stylescope Quiz!
