It’s the most wonderful time of year to admire the creativity and imagination of brands and design enthusiasts who go all out to embrace the festive spirit of the holiday season. Check out our favorite décor from the over-the-top window and in-store displays at high-end department stores and restaurants, to the the White House and well-designed homes of interior designers and their clients.

The Home of the talented Em Henderson

It is officially the holidays in the Henderson House. I headed over to Target and grabbed everything I could get my hands on to make our house a neutral, winter wonderland (despite the 90 degree weather outside). Head to the blog for the full living room reveal. 📷 @hellosaratrampinteriors for EHD

Cozy corner ✔️ My daughter and I repurposed my pillow fabric scraps into a new Christmas tree skirt (and I made new stockings from scraps). It was a fun project and goes with the theme of our Christmas tree ornaments — none of them match but they all have a story. Happy holiday season friends! . . . . . . #ggholiday #vintage #howyouhome #currentdesignsituation #currenthomeview #interior #designsponge  #bohohome #bohemianstyle  #mydomaine #sodomino #inmydomaine  #flashesofdelight #theeverygirl  #apartmenttherapy  #mywestelm #homewithrue #elledecor #smploves  #showemyourstyled #istillaintmadatitamber #kismetcheckoutmyhouse #finditstyleit #junglowstyle #beckiowensfeature #mybhg #thenewbohemians #hgtvmagazine #theeverygirlholiday

We stuck with the classics this year. And my husband stepped up his exterior decorating game, so I promised him some credit. 🙂 #EACcolonial #Christmas
