CHRISTMASTIME: LIFE IS SWEET LIKE CANDYLAND

My favorite game as a child was Candyland, and I will never get enough of how it has become a fun part of my life. It is incredible how I have carried it over into my adulthood. However, a year ago, it became my Christmas theme. With Christmas around the corner, I found myself reminiscing on several themes that were exciting and fun to create, and Candyland is one of my favorites.

The palette is surprisingly beautiful, with colors ranging from pink to yellow, blue to purple, green, and hints of red. My favorites were the massive lollipops, ice cream cones, and cute gummy bears. While I was styling during Christmas last year, it brought back many childhood memories, and I found myself happily smiling. Of course, my childhood was beyond exciting, adventurous, and unforgettable. As always, thanks to my amazing parents!

That said, I am featuring a new theme this year, and the more unique my themes are each Christmas, the more beautiful the next one becomes. So, make sure to check the last holiday post that I will feature on Christmas Day.

Moreover, it is not so much about the holiday as it is about being a creative individual and continually using my gifts, which were given to me by the most incredible designer, God. It gives me a fantastic opportunity to create beautiful objects to display.

Finally, after all the holiday hustle and bustle, I am ready to inhale, exhale, and relax during this holiday season because I have been a workaholic for the entire year of 2024. So, finally, I get to enjoy the festivities with family and friends. Oh, and officially, go on a long-awaited vacation. Wheew!

Xo xo, Merry Christmas!
