It's Beginning to Look A Lot Like Christmas

This is my favorite time of the year. Our house feels so much warmer and welcoming. I might become that crazy lady that keeps her tree up all year. Maybe. 

Our banister.

Christmas at the Hollens

I finally took some photos of our house this Christmas. I love owning a house and being able to decorate as much as I please. I also love the DollarTree and the fact that I spent about 40 bucks on everything. Last year I used aqua and silver. This year I decided on gold, silver, and white on the tree. In our kitchen, I used most of our ornaments from last year. It's almost pathetic to think of how excited I was to have banister now to decorate. 

I love Christmas. Hopefully these next few days are easy going at work and then I can enjoy time with my family and friends. Many things have been circulating through my mind and heart as of late and this coming year is one of the unknown, which makes me search it out all the more. 


Here's to some time of reflecting upon 2010 and dreaming about 2011. 

Workspace Dreams

I'm slowly becoming far more crafty and domestic than I used to be. My photography is also taking off at a speed I didn't think possible as well. All due to a little bit of advertising and word of mouth. That being said, I am dreaming of new workspaces for all of my creative endeavors. I love our little house, but would DIE for a spare bedroom for all of my stuff.

Here is what I work with now....

Here are some spaces that I adore....
