Our first Christmas in YellowDoorWorld has come and gone. Next thing you know we ‘ll be ringing in the New Year and toasting to 2014.

Decorating the house for the first time was loads of fun and I didn’t go close to overboard on buying new things. In fact, aside from a few new pillows, little items from the dollar section at Target and a ton of burlap ribbon and bows I made good with everything we already had.

I suspect next year we’ll see some new things…like a new tree and ornaments and lighted garland. I also have some ideas for snowflakes from the ceiling and outdoor accessories.

After reading the Dec. issue of HGTV Magazine, I’ve also decided I’ve got a goal of getting YellowDoorWorld in a magazine. I really do love decorating and it’s fun to see how things can come to life with the vision Benji and I have. We’ll see what happens.

It was a white Christmas outside and full of love inside at YellowDoorWorld but spring still can’t come soon enough.
