Y’all, I am am so excited merry & bright! See what I did there? Last weekend I went to the annual Nutcracker Market in Houston. It is utter chaos with women shopping like mad & their men tailgating out in the parking lot until they’re needed to do the heavy lifting. It’s a genius plan if you think about it. This year I went on the last day, instead of the first day, & was so excited because some booths were making deals. I’m always on the hunt for a reasonably priced Christmas tree skirt & this year I found the perfect red tartan plaid skirt at a booth called The Royal Standard. It was 50% off, so of course I had to take a second look to determine if it was worth the discounted price – definitely worthy the $20 I paid!
Between the Nutcracker Market & the Hallmark Channel’s Christmas movies (cannot. stop. watching.), I am having such a hard time restraining myself from decorating for the holiday. I settle for creating holiday inspired playlists instead, so without further ado – I present to you the second playlist of the season.
