After an exciting Hearth & Hand with Magnolia home decor launch for Target last year just in time for the holidays, I knew this year’s holiday collection would be just as good. I had much more self control this year and only chose pieces to add to my holiday decor collection that I knew I loved and would use beyond the holidays. (Who needs the farmhouse dollhouse anyway?!) 😉

Here are my favorite pieces I picked up at this year’s Hearth & Hand with Magnolia Holiday Decor for Target:

Candles

You can never have enough candles. They make the perfect gifts for just about anyone. They are also little indulging wellness gifts to yourself. These candles come in a stylish modern tin that looks great beyond the holidays. The candle design doesn’t scream Christmas, so they are perfect to gift and use year round. They come in several scents. My favorite scent is the Lavender Eucalyptus.

 

Greenery

I adore greenery around the home, especially eucalyptus. Eucalyptus has been a favorite new addition to the Hearth & Hand with Magnolia collection and seen in many home and design spaces. It is currently the greenery of choice due to its versatile styling ability and unique fresh and modern look. Hearth & Hand has added a Eucalyptus Garland to its holiday garland collection this year. It’s a refreshing change from the usual pine needle holiday garlands traditionally used.

Arrangements

This cute arrangement is the perfect finishing touch for a Christmas vignette, or as a standalone piece on your tabletops. I love the several arrangements from the Hearth and Hand collection  helps take the guesswork on making the perfect floral stem arrangements as these stems come glued into the vase.

There are so many other beautiful pieces from the holiday collection to get your home holiday ready. What are some of your favorite pieces from the Hearth and Hand with Magnolia Holiday collection?

Kapolei Hawaii June 2018

One of my favorite holiday traditions is writing and sending out Christmas cards to our family and friends. I pick a favorite photo and memory from the year to preserve and use on our Christmas card. This year, I chose a photo from our family vacation to Hawaii in June where John and I celebrated our 10th wedding anniversary and had a vow renewal on the beach. I’ve used TinyPrints every year for their premium quality luxe paper, amazing picture quality, and beautiful designs.  Check out their new luxe holiday cards here.

We attended Breakfast with Santa at Neiman Marcus Cafe and had a holly jolly fabulous time! We will be making this an annual holiday tradition to kick off the Christmas season. This was the first Breakfast with Santa event Neiman Marcus hosted at their new Shops At Clearfork location in Fort Worth. The morning started with champagne and pastries, followed by a full hearty breakfast plate with eggs, quiche, bacon, sausage, waffles, fruit and yogurt – yum!  Santa made his way around to each table making sure to see and greet each child. After breakfast, families were escorted to have their photos taken with Santa. There were no lines because the photo session was reserved for families attending the breakfast.  Reservations for Breakfast with Santa are required and include coffee, tea, juice, full breakfast, visits from Santa and his elf, and complimentary printed portraits with Santa.  This was the perfect way to get our kids’ photos with Santa without the hassle of lines and crowds at a mall and enjoy a special breakfast together!

Beautiful tables set for families of up to four. Larger groups can request to be seated next to each other.
