For my family, Christmas is our favorite holiday and our favorite time of year. The simple traditions we enjoy create the special magic known as “Christmas” in our family, but I like to change it up each year in small ways to keep it creative, fresh and fun. This year I added a second tree, using a color palette of woodsy neutrals with small barn owls and pinecones to dress up a corner in the family room, while keeping our traditional 9 foot red-and-gold majestic fir tree in all its’ glory. Always present are the pine tree scented candles, holiday music and movies, and our matching pajamas. Still, despite all the traditions, I know it is never what is on the tree, or under the tree, but who is around the tree that is the real magic of the season for me.
