Hey guys! This is a quick little blog on my favorite Christmas decorations I have around the house! Hope everybody has a great holiday and relaxes over the big break!
Hello everyone! I wanted to do a quick guide to help you stay organized over this upcoming and hectic holiday week! Here are a few items that will help you along the way:
1) Stay Organized and On Track
Whether or not you're a big organizer like me and love to plan out your upcoming events and dates, this planner, that my best friend Olivia got me as an early X-Mas gift, is amazing! It has a few sections in the front to keep contacts and addresses as well as some note pages. Then it has two calendars; one for 2016 and 2017! It has a grid section and a writing section for each so you can write out notes to yourself as well. Staying organized over the holidays is something I always lag on and it's important, especially for writing down presents and party dates and to keep these things on track and prepared for the future! And isn't this gold and pastel pink planner just so adorable??
2) Christmas Stationary
I love stationary especially during the festive seasons. At Target they have a HUGE abundance and variety of Christmas cards and note cards-- for literally the apocalypse. Even in the dollar section of the store (where I got the ones up above and can't find a link to) has so many different kinds of Christmas stuff and its so overwhelming! Having extra cards to write and to use as thank you cards can be very helpful during this season in case you forgot someone (I hope you don't forget anyone in your family!) or you met a friend along the way and want to wish them a happy holiday. These cards are so cute and I love the modern, metallic design that's actually pretty festive with the dark and mint green on them. Having blank cards and a good pen is also very handy! And for me, I have sooo many people to write to this year!
Another thing to have is a very handy eraser, like this ginormous fox eraser my friend Isaac gave me that I absolutely love! It's great for "big mistakes" haha. Plus it's like having a little friend on your desk. I might not even use it because it's so cute I don't want it to get ruined!
3) Time Management
If you're a procrastinator like me then you know that rushing to get presents and cards done is a struggle. This year, however, I have been very good and started my planning late November-- thanks to this watch by Folio, that's rose gold and makes any outfit sophisticated and cute. It helped me manage my time: studying for finals (eek I have only three more tests this week), buying gifts, and planning things for the upcoming week. Now my watch didn't like "tell" me when I need to plan or anything, I think just having a watch on you can really help you during the day and helps make sure you're getting all of the things on your daily checklist done! Plus, not being late is a very important thing too.
I hope you guys liked this cute, little post and find it helpful during these last couple of days before the holidays get here. Also, I wish everybody good luck on final exams this week and hope it hasn't been too hectic for any of you guys! Just relax, drink some tea, and read some blogs! :)

Hello my little "bundles of joy"! Here's something that I absolutely love during these cold winter months. Lighting holiday scented candles. Now I don't know about you but, candles are my MAJOR necessity. Especially around this time of year when everyone is so festive and cozy and all you wanna do is cuddle up, light a candle or two, and drink a nice cup of hot cocoa or tea. Now THAT"S what I call living. haha
I found these little guys a bit ago and was completely disappointed that I didn't find the big versions of these but, I thought it was a better deal to buy three mini Yankee candles. My favorite is the Christmas Cookie one. I can have the smell of freshly baked cookies without actually baking; genius.
Whether you're new to Yankee or a big hauler and stock pile-r like me, these are great for everyone! They also make amazing gifts! I think I'll be giving one of these to one of my best friends! Compared to the Bath and Body Works candles I am going to have to say that the holiday collection is pretty up to par with BBW. I can't decide who's candles I like best! What other candles should I try out?
This set comes with three 3.7 oz/104 g candles and burn for up to a couple of hours. They're absolutely one of my favorites this month and I hope you guys enjoy them too! Plus they're all really inexpensive!
Xoxo, Nat
