Live in each season as it passes: breathe air, drink the drink, taste the fruit, and resign yourself to the influences of each. ~ Henry David Thoreau
Hello December! As we all know, the month of December can be a crazy month of busyness. So....I encourage you to resign yourself (or embrace!) the influences of the season as Mr. Thoreau suggests.
Try to create a few quiet moments where you feel the goodness of the season. I write this as a reminder for myself as much as for you! If you need some inspiration....we compiled a list of simple pleasures you might embrace this month. But first we will start with a bit of decorating inspiration.
How to Create a Peppermint Bar
Fill clear vessels with a variety of red and white candy. I used a collection of old jars that have been hiding away in our pantry. If you don't have extra jars....try wine glasses or clear vases. Select a combination of different sizes and shapes.
Add ribbons and fresh greens.....
And mini twinkle lights
