One thing that I love doing each year is wrapping presents to coordinate with different rooms in our house. It’s an easy and inexpensive way to add some decor and something I need to do anyway so it is nice being able to display them instead of finding a closet to stash them away in.
Since this room is really more of a three seasons room, we haven’t been using it much lately, but I decided to go ahead and put some greenery and a few pops of red out here for the holidays. On a sunny day, it actually heats up pretty nicely in the afternoon, but it was NOT sunny when I took these pictures and I had to wear a hoodie, one of my husband’s hoodies over that, and gloves to take these.
Last week we closed on our new home! It has been a whirlwind couple of months here so we are so excited that finally this week we really feel like we can start settling in. Our new home’s interior is pretty similar to our last home so it may seem a little crazy that we moved as we start sharing pictures of our new home, but the yard and driveway situation is so much more ideal for our family and the amount of time that we spend outdoors.
Well, except for a progressive dinner we are doing next week, I think this is our last room to share of our old house! (Although if I get to it, I may do a round up of all the before and afters from the last three and a half years in a few weeks).
I hope you all had a lovely weekend! We shared on instagram last night that we closed on a new home earlier this week so later this week we will have a post up with more details on our move and hopefully at least a few photos! For now though I have a couple last posts to share of our last home.
We kept our Christmas decor in the back hallway pretty simple, because after all, it is a back hallway. 😉 But I didn’t want to overlook it, because I think it is a hidden gem. It’s one of my favorite features of the house. (I have many.) I can’t wait until the girls are slightly older and I can leave the door open all the time and rest assured that they won’t end up using the loop as a racetrack.
