Cozy Red Home Christmas Tour
by
Megan Aubrey
What does Christmas feel like in your home? Is there a warmth that envelopes you when you walk inside? Is it cozy and cheerful? That’s what our house feels like during Christmas. The lights are low and sparkling, candles are wafting cinnamon flavor everywhere, and the (electric) fireplace is making the house a cozy respite from the frigid outdoors. I think this is my favorite part of Christmas – the warmth and love, so I really decided to focus on those elements when decorating. I wanted our home to feel like the heart of Christmas: welcoming, joyful, snuggly, comforting. That is also why I decided to photograph that house in its state I love most – dimly lit and cozily inviting. I hope you feel it where you are.
We also love, love, love to contribute to making our neighborhood cheerful and merry during this time of year, so we completely embrace outdoor decorating – mainly lights. We think it just brings so much Christmas spirit to the neighborhood. This year we were ecstatic to see more neighbors than ever putting up lights outside of their home.
