How to Use Christmas Decorations All Year!

 Yes, I am listening to Christmas music as I type this. I wish I had a mug of hot chocolate in my hand too!
I love Christmas decorations- they are sparkly, glittery, colorful, twinkly and full of shine! I love them so much, I even use Christmas decorations all year in my house!
I went to Target last week to buy like toothpaste and came out with Christmas decorations! I bought those fun, vintage looking hot pink glitter stars and placed them on my chartreuse (I like saying chartreuse instead of "somewhere between yellow and green", say it, it's fun) cake stand, and they make me happy every time I walk by them!

 Then I saw these colorful, plastic ornament garland winking at me in Target, saying, "hey there, don't you wanna take me home. I'm loads of fun!"...and I said, "oh yes you are! Get in my cart right now!"....

I'm gonna put these everywhere. I might even use them for my background in my videos. Hey, I may even wear them...ha ha ha ha

*One of my favorite other "ornament" decorations is...........I bought some light pink disco ball ornaments onc clearance after christmas last year, and I put them in glass candy jars in my bathroom! I love them.

*Another fun one: I bought a little garland of "sugar-glittered" candy, and used it to decorate the curtains the top of Alani's curtains in her room!

Here's to multi-purpose ideas for Christmas ornaments!

Do you have any fun ways you've used Christmas ornaments? Share em with us below!

Wishing snow was falling outside....ok, just falling....I'm not a fan of the shoveling of the snow! ha ha ha

ornaments on my ears, kandee

Barbie's in the house!

Barbie's on my wall is more like it!

I got asked where I got this Barbie painting (it's not an actual painting, but a giclee, it's like a fancy print on a canvas)...because it was in the background of a video....see:

there is this really cool store in downtown LA that sold vintage fun stuff and had all the Barbie painting in it...I used to go there and look at all the Barbie paintings because I loved them and thought my mom would love them too!

One day a friend said she had a surprise for me! It was this painting! I love it!

(me and little tiny, outside the vintage store...I don't know the name but they don't sell the paintings anymore. Which was the whole reason I took my mom there a few weeks ago. ha ha)

It is my only "big girl" painting that I own, besides paintings that I've done ...but somehow I don't think those count! ha ha ha

And what better to go with my hot pink couch...than a Barbie painting. I've had a hot pink couch in my house for over 10 years. Everyone loves the hot pink couch! when my hot pink cover got ruined and it was just plain white....it was no where near as fun! ha ha ha
