MERRY GRINCHMAS: MERRY & BRIGHT

Or should the title say Merry Christmas: Naughty or Nice?

Anyway, can you believe that Christmas came so quickly? It was wild because I was working on various projects, mainly for Fall, and the next thing I knew, Fall was rolling out, Thanksgiving was over, and Christmas came. It is a great example to show that time is precious and does not wait on anything or anyone.

Regardless, the best part is that I am always prepared and knew months in advance that my theme this year would be bold, vibrant, and naughty, which reflects my personality.

So, this year, I did a Grinchmas theme. OMG, it turned out so amazingly beautiful. It is dominant, bold, vibrant, stylish, and crazy statement-making. Besides, the Grinch needs love and finally finds the perfect girl who understands him. Oh, and Max is delighted, too!

To create a Grichmas form tree, I needed a dynamic, bold, and bright vibe with a whimsical style.

The goal was to use large 4" balls featuring white, various greens, and red. However, specific ornaments had intricately detailed patterns and glitter. Jumbo-wrapped candy and candy canes were present because you can't have a Grinchmas without candy. I am still in awe of how beautiful it turned out and how the color palette fell perfectly in place. And yes, I see everyone do a regular Christmas tree, but I did a dress form tree. If you know me, you know being different is of high importance.

The wrapping paper displays circles, peppermint, and cute reindeer.

As a bonus, I incorporated various reindeer throughout my Christmas decor for accents. From suede to red and green plaid, the reindeer (seen displayed with presents) gave way to unique intricate details. There are multiple objects throughout, and each becomes the perfect complement to the other.

The Grinch cake is perfect for my holiday theme and is too cute. It is pure chocolate and deliciously yummy.

Oh, and there is a new Grinchnista in town. Her name is Kimberly, and her cute little doggie is Ace.
