At the end of this post, please share your thoughts on early decorators. At what point to do feel it's ok to pull out the Christmas decor and when is it just plain too early?
I'm ready right now thanks to...
I'm known to be a little early busting out the Christmas decor every year but, c'mon, September? Am I really blogging about Christmas when it's still 80 degrees in Michigan?
I can't help it, I'm so excited to have my Christmas mantel featured at BHG.com.
A few months ago, I was contacted by Better Homes and Gardens about including my Reindeer Antler Snowflake Mantel in their 2012 Christmas slide show.
After falling out of my chair, I responded with a huge yes, answered some of their questions and proceeded to stalk the BHG.com website every day until it was published, yesterday.
The slide show is a fantastic collection of "real home" Christmas mantels. It's very inspiring. So inspiring that now, I'm ready to go into the basement and dig out the Christmas boxes.
I have a major case of seasonal decorating confusion.
Here is the link to the BHG.com slide show. You can also find their Christmas Ideas Magazine publication in stores now {which includes a beautiful spread on one of my favorite Christmas homes}. My hope is that you will catch the seasonal confusion bug and I won't feel so alone.
At what point is it ok to decorate early? When is it acceptable and when is it a little crazy?
Thank you, Better Homes and Gardens, for the feature.
