THIS OR THAT: Christmas Trees + Stocking Stuffers Inspirations Under $20

December 16, 2022
  • Share

Bringing back an old segment that was popular on the blog…THIS OR THAT? But this time it’s comparing my Christmas trees. I decided to try something new. I didn’t want a traditional Christmas tree. This year, I decided to do something different. I went with a Silvertip fir. It’s modern and dreamy.

From my years of blogging and posting on Instagram, I’ve learned that everyone has an opinion. So why not share yours about Christmas decor? From my new Christmas tree to stocking stuffer ideas under $20, what do you like and dislike?

What is a Silvertip Tree?

A silvertip Christmas tree is a rare beauty. The branches have wide spacing which makes it easier for decorating. And the branches are adorned with delicate needles that shimmer like silver in the light. It creates a magical winter wonderland in any home. They are more popular in western North America.

This or That: Douglas Fir or Silvertip

Silvertip Tree – My 2022 Tree

I spent the weekend decorating my Christmas tree with my mom and aunt. My aunt wasn’t very pleased with my tree choice. Her exact words were “your tree looks depressing.” She favors a full Douglas Fir tree. It’s not that I don’t like a full tree. This year I wanted to try something different. I discovered this Silvertip online. It was my very first time buying a tree online. The company sent me a photo (with a man standing next to it LOL). I didn’t need a big tree! I bought the first one I saw and now it’s in my living room.

In honor of the recent passing of tWitch, I decided to make the stocking stuffers focused on self-care. It’s important to check on your family and friends. Check out Alyssa Curry and Marala Scott’s company, Mental Health Cards. Their goal is to help make it easier to start a conversation about mental health with loved ones. The stocking stuffers above feature skincare, a motivational journal, tasty treats, and more.

I hope everyone has a safe and wonderful holiday.

P.S. Last Friday, I was a guest on Acme Real Estate‘s podcast episode. We discussed feminity in the workplace, new ventures including Chirpyest, and played a fun holiday game. It turns out I adore holiday decor more than I realized. I had a great time chatting with Courtney, Silke, and Dominque. Check out the full podcast here.

This is the house that stopped us mid-scroll and k This is the house that stopped us mid-scroll and kept us there.
A 90s home in Amman, Jordan, entirely remodelled by local artisans. Neo-Florentine bones, Levant-eclectic sensibility, arched passageways, and a flea-market-meets-commissioned-art collection that makes every wall feel intentional.
What makes it work: restraint where you’d expect excess, and boldness where you’d expect safety.
This is what happens when a home is built by people who actually know the place. 🖤
Save this, it’s a masterclass in culturally rooted design.

Panic mode activated!
If you only have 10 minutes, focus on these three things:
1. Make the bed. It instantly makes the whole room look cleaner.
2. Fold or straighten the throw blanket and pillows.
3. Clear visible clutter from nightstands and the floor.
That’s it. Those three steps make the biggest visual impact without deep cleaning.
Save this for the next time you need a fast bedroom reset. 🔖

Black is not a bold choice. It’s a neutral, and one of the most versatile ones in design.
The rooms that get it right treat black the same way others treat white or greige: as a foundation that lets everything else breathe. The texture of the wall. The warmth of the wood. The drama of the marble. Black doesn’t compete, it amplifies.
Save this the next time someone talks you out of going dark. 🖤

Life when I’m offline. 🎣 On this trip to Park CitLife when I’m offline. 🎣
On this trip to Park City, UT, I was way off line with a little fly fishing. No emails. No DMs. No feed. Just a rod, a beautiful river, and however long it takes to catch something.
Running two brands means my brain rarely stops so when it does, it really does.
No fish were harmed. All fish were returned into the river.
What do you do when you log off? Comment and let's give each other some ideas!😀
