Welcome to The Holiday Home Series. This year, I decided to loosen up and let the kids participate in the decorating more than I have in the past. The result has been true perfection. Not the kind of perfection we strive for when decorating but a truer perfection, the kind an adult cannot achieve.
Case in point, Hannah's Christmas Bedroom.
Hannah is my 11 year old daughter.
She is also my design assistant, my behind the scenes wingman. She loves a good project and puts her heart in everything she does.
She's my sounding board when I am stuck on a project. She gives it to me straight and her design advice is always spot on.
She re-designed her bedroom tree this year. I gave her a $25 budget for the project.
She combined new decorations with special ornaments she has collected over time.
Each ornament represents a different phase in her life.
Her tree skirt is actually her first ballet tutu. Oh, how I miss the ballet phase...
This year she decided to layer a turquoise sequenced tree skirt from The Dollar Tree over the tutu.
(Good call, Hannah).
She chose a white tree with colored lights.
Looking at this tree reminds me of how she has grown and represents her entire childhood. To me, it couldn't be more perfect...just like her.
