Holiday decor inspiration

I am in love with these photos. The mantle of greenery and homemade wreath seem easy enough. Definitely cheap enough. Hoping Target still has some of their blue ornaments (balls) that I shamelessly made fun of last week...

Really getting now why all these years my aunts (mom included) were up at 6am in front of Macy's and Dillard's for the after Christmas sales. Ornaments, especially beautiful ones, are craaaazy expensive. Jesus, throw me a bone here! It's my first time doing Christmas in Los Angeles and I can't bear to decorate my tree with overpriced glass. Thankfully, the lady of the house is bringing me a carry-on full of ornament when she and her rockstar hubby/my dad make their way over next week. 

Whatcha got going on on your tree?

"Get the biggest aluminum tree you can find, Charlie Brown, maybe painted pink."
