(XOXO Notecards in the Shop!)
I don't think you ever need an excuse to add color around the house, but Christmas time is obviously a good one! Luckily the kids got to decorate with my mother-in-law over Thanksgiving, because the stomach flu wiped us all out this weekend, and at this point I'll be lucky to pull out the ornaments before the baby comes...

Since I won't be doing many DIY projects this year, here's a few I've rounded up...
