Decorating Your Home For the Holidays

As you know, I enjoy decorating for the seasons. Last year I began storing my Christmas decor in my coffee table which is a giant wooden trunk (pictured above) and so this year, it was so freaking easy to get everything out. We only had to venture to the attic for the tree and a few strings of lights. Before I put my Christmas stuff in there, the trunk was empty. WHAT WAS I THINKING? So yes, this year it was so easy to get everything out to decorate. Plus, Caroline was old enough to actually be excited about decorating, so that gave us another boost to break out the holiday cheer.

Holiday Gifts for Ladies

Shopping for a friend, mom, sister, mother-in-law, wife, girlfriend? Check out these ideas below. We really enjoyed pulling together what might delight us if we unwrapped it this season.

Brass animals, truly the gift for all seasons, add whim and the final touch to a shelf or even the dinner table. // Woven baskets to store keys, jewelry or hairbands. // Sea-foam cocktail napkins. Sigh. Love. // Colorful, soft, gorgeous blankets made from sari remnants.

Presenting: Retro Den Christmas!

November 21, 2013/ Retro Den Vintage Home Store and Design

Since we bought the store, we've been squirreling away vintage holiday items. They are finally out and ready to be given a home for the holidays.

Sometimes I need special cues to start the day right and put me in a jolly mood. A little orange juice in a holly-covered glass each morning may very well prime me to spread better cheer.
