Decorating it Forward & Spreading Holiday Cheer with #KmartHoliday #CBias

Kmart Holiday Decor

My love of decorating is no secret.  I truly enjoy making our home beautiful and I'm constantly changing things up.  When the mood strikes, I just go with it whether that means rearranging the furniture, throwing some paint on the walls, or crafting some new decor.  In my eyes, our home is always a work in progress and things are tweaked to my evolving tastes regularly. Some people, like my Gangan, don't have the decorating spark.  Sure, she likes to have a pretty home, but she doesn't … [Read more...]
