I can’t believe it’s 7 days till Christmas y’all! Confession: I’m not done with all of my shopping yet. #oopsie But don’t you worry your pretty little heads about it, I’m placing the last of my orders today, and everything will be here in plenty of time, so I’m good to go! 🙂
I’ve been getting some requests here and there to show more of my home, so today I’m going to give you a glimpse into our house all gussied up for Christmas. (I also have a HUGE SALE ALERT at the bottom with a favorite pair of jeans, so be sure to not miss that!)
My favorite decorations (and Carter’s too) are definitely the hand print and foot print canvases we have made over the years. That sweet little Christmas tree made out of hands was the one we did first, way back in 2011! And I’m telling you right now, we will now be making them each and every year until he refuses. ???? I hope this whole wall in our entry way is filled up by the time we’re done! (Several of you have asked, and we use Command velcro tape to attach them to the wall.)
The picture below is from last year, and it’s my favorite canvas we’ve made to date. My foot is Mary, Chris’s foot is Joseph, Carter’s hands are the animals, and Carter’s foot is the angel. Look how proud he is!
We did this sweet little red bird one last year as well. Carter’s hand is on top and mine is on the bottom.
And here’s a peek at our house all dressed up for the Christmas season.
And my favorite little nook in our home, the fireplace. We left Scout’s stocking up, and we added the two on each end for the pups!
I hope y’all enjoyed the little look into our home!

And now I have some VERY IMPORTANT SALE ALERTS for y’all today!
OUR FAVORITE BOOT CUT JEANS ARE 33% OFF!!!!
When I’ve posted these jeans before, it’s been obvious that lots of people are OBSESSED with them like I am!
After planning the above outfit, I switched out the leopard clutch for my big girl bag because the leopard clutch was behind sleeping puppies. #andyouneverwakesleepingpuppies
More on the jeans in a minute, but I’m wearing a small in this cute little peplum top.
burgundy peplum tee /itty bitty boot cut jeans / peep toe booties / similar necklace/ similar earrings/ ring ON SALE
And seriously. If you haven’t made these itty bitty boot cut jeans yours yet, NOW IS THE TIME. They are quite a deal at 33% OFF!
I’m wearing the 4 Regular here with 3 1/2 inch block heels, (and I’m almost 5’4″). I will say that I have a really short torso and pretty long legs for my height, but the Regular length is perfect for me. If you want to elongate your legs, you really need to try these jeans. The boot cut opening is narrow, so it’s not a really wide flare that will overwhelm you. They are true to size for me, but some have said that they size down. I have to wear shoes with a heel with them, but I always like wearing a heel with boot cut jeans. If you are 5’2″ or under, I think you could order a petite.
Let’s talk for a second about the “ab-solution technology” that is built in to these jeans. The ‘Ab-solution’ flatters with power-mesh panels to mold and hold, including a waistband with interior control and booty-lift construction. And y’all. I’m a believer in the technology.
These jeans are incredibly stretchy and comfortable….and if I’ve said it once, I’ve said it a hundred times…THEY MAKE YOU LOOK TALLER AND SKINNIER THAN YOU ALREADY ARE. ???? And hey, if you don’t believe me, just check out the online reviews.
And GREAT NEWS! They come in plus size too!
My favorite nightgown is also ON SALE!!!! We’re talking 58% OFF! Regularly $45, NOW ONLY $18.97! It also comes in camo, grey, and pink!
For size references: I’m wearing the x-small/small in the blardigan and a small in the nightshirt.
And I know many of you absolutely swear by the Barefoot Dreams blankets and throws (like I do the blardigans)! Well, there are several on super sale (49%-58% OFF)!
***************************

This Kate Spade watch is darling and on SUPER SALE! Regularly $195, marked down to $111.14!

Andrea says
Sheaffer, I love all of your decor! I have a similar light above my kitchen table that I put a garland on, but your garland is SO much nicer..mine is old and needs to be retired. May I ask where you found it? And are those wood beeds that you added?
Sorry for peppering you with questions????
BTW, Sheaffer tell me to, A LOT!
Sheaffer says
Hi, Andrea! The greenery is several years old and I have no memory of where I got it, the wood beads were from Home Goods last year. Thanks for reading and for the sweet words! xoxo, Sheaffer 🙂
Amanda Peterson says
In the Wit and Wisdom skinny jeans, are you true to size too? I just ordered the bootcut jeans because I LOVE the Wit and Wisdoms!
Sheaffer says
Hi, Amanda! In some of the skinny jeans I’m true to size. But in a couple of pair I would have needed to have sized UP. Sorry I’m not more help! xoxo, Sheaffer 🙂
Lisa says
I love the canvas art and started doing them with my two year old last year after seeing your post. Thank you for the idea, I just know I will cherish these little works of art as I pull them out to decorate for the holidays year after year!
Laurie S says
Sheaffer – Merry (early) Christmas! Thanks for showing your holiday home – it’s beautiful! LOVE the hand and foot print artwork! Very tastefully done, comfy/cozy… Nothing like being afraid to move around in your own home. Have a blessed holiday!
Hollie says
Love that you kept Scout’s stocking up 🙂 Merry Christmas!

Hi, Hollie! Yep, we couldn’t even imagine taking it down. He’s a part of our family forever! xoxo, Sheaffer 🙂
Jen says
Your home!!!! It is lovely! I adore the way you mix patterns, textures and colors! Pretty please show us more rooms sometime. I have copied several of your canvas ideas and my MIL cried at the angel one we gave her. Please show us the one you do for this year. Love the stockings…how precious. Merry Christmas!
Sheaffer says
Hey, Jen! Thank you for the sweet words! I will definitely show you what canvas we choose this year, although it’s proving difficult! We have to do some more searching! And I love that your MIL cried. So sweet. xoxo, Sheaffer 🙂
Cassie says
Your house is adorable 🙂 bonus time…Yeti cooler, Bose wireless headphones, ugg sweatpants, craft beer subscription, apple watch, apple TV, this year I got him golf lessons with a golf pro at a near by private club.
Sheaffer says
Great ideas, Cassie!
Kelly says
Your home is lovely:). Also, I have wanted to do the Christmas canvas idea with my grandchildren as a gift for their parents ever since you showed yours and this year I remembered! We kept the children for an evening when their parents went to an office Christmas party and I got my chance. We did the big Christmas tree with 5 children’s (10, 8, 6, 4 and 3) sweet handprints. I cannot wait to give it to my son and daughter-in-law on Christmas day!
Kadi says
I love your stockings! Where are they from?
Sheaffer says
Hi, Kadi! The middle four are from Pottery Barn about 4 years ago, and the outer 2 are from Michael’s this year! xoxo, Sheaffer 🙂
Pam says
Anything involving our grandgirls, Yeti cooler, Foot Cardigan subscription, anything from Amazingribs.com, and this year will be private guitar lessons – he already plays pretty well but wants to go to the next level.
