Heading into the Holidays

As we head into the holidays, life can get pretty hectic. Especially if you’re looking to buy a home. While in the midst of that hustle and bustle, don’t forget to make time for special family traditions, delicious meals with friends and decorating your home to inspire. Below are a few tips on how to get into the Christmas spirit:

 

Deck the Halls

The 2021 Holiday season style calls for nostalgic and natural. The natural rustic look is popular, and easy/inexpensive to achieve, with homemade decor that feels like “home”. Greenery, vintage props and earthy tones bring the look together in an effortless way.

Spread a Feast

Prepare a delectable holiday meal and invite friends over for warm conversation and hot drinks. Nothing brings people together better than food and festivities! Take some time to reach out to people you haven’t seen in a while.

Start a Tradition

Begin a new family holiday tradition with your kids for memories that las a lifetime. In a culture that is so “stuff” driven and during a holiday season over-commercialized, try starting a family tradition centered around doing good for others. Pick an organization and find a way to serve in some capacity with your family. For a list of our favorite charities/organizations, send us a message and we’re happy to send you a list.

Reach out to Loved Ones

Make a phone call or send a card to those far away that you don’t get to see often enough. A small note goes a long way. Write something encouraging to a friend or family member who had a rough 2019. You might be surprised at how good it makes you feel too!

Make Time for You

During the rush of the season, don’t forget to take care of yourself. While it is important to serve others and spend time with loved ones, it is just as important to be sure you are getting time to rest this holiday season. Reduce stress and give the gift of rest to yourself.
