anyone else agree with me that we really need a MERRY Christmas?!

2020 has been hard. we all know that.
as the holiday season approaches, we all seem to be
looking forward to decorating our homes and trees and front doors
to welcome the joy of the season - even if we can't welcome guests.

while the holidays might look different than usual this year,
we can all certainly make the best of them - and of us.
let's look to our childhood memories to fuel our imaginations,
and create a mood that brings a smile to the faces of those we love.

let's make it merry and bright!

since the beginning of this year,
i've been incorporating more color in my rooms, decor, and life.
from the makeover of my studio/office and using more color in our home, 
to my social media feeds, and even my wardrobe,
i have found that color positively affects my mood and my productivity.

embracing more color has fueled my imagination and creativity,
which has helped me to get through this crazy year with an optimistic outlook.
childlike wonder and whimsy have run rampant, my muses are filling my head with ideas,
and my eyes are seeing everything in a new light...
including things that surround me in my studio every day.

those happy elements became the foundation for this years' holiday decor theme:

those large colorful ornament balls shown above?
i bought them in the Cast Store when i was working at Disneyland...
they actually hung on the tree on Disneyland's Main Street USA!

since early last December, they've been living on a small white tree
in the corner of my studio, joined by all of my special figural Disney ornaments.
the rainbow ombre' arrangement was so colorful and happy that i never took it down...
and it has served to put a smile on my face many times over the past months.

the paint chips?
i sauntered in to my local paint store and asked for old paint chips - 
and they handed me an armload of fan decks! FREE!
(i nearly skipped out the door...)
