Holiday Prep + Giveaway! (closed)

Chanel brooch
The holidays are right around the corner! Our house has been decorated for the past month, and we finished all our Christmas shopping weeks ago, so I'm feeling pretty on top of things. This past weekend, we hosted our annual homies holiday party -- more on that and my outfit above in a post to come. This post is about how I prepped for this season!

Juniper Natural Nail Bar West Seattle
red gold Christmas manicure
The cutest nail salon opened up in West Seattle a month ago called Juniper Natural Nail Bar. The place is so darling and they use natural, locally-made scrubs and lotions! I chose a festive manicure with red Vinylux polish (lasts for weeks without chipping!) and gold glitter detailing. While I was getting my nails done, Husband was pampered with a pedicure that he loved. ;)

Minted Christmas card
Rifle Paper Co gift tags
We made gorgeous Christmas cards on Minted and I love how they turned out. I've partnered with them to give away 2 $125 gift certificates to Minted.com! Easy way to enter below. I also got these Rifle & Co. gift tags, which make labeling for gifting easy and cute.

Congrats to the 2 winners Leigh and Jennifer! Look out for an email from me and another email from Minted with the gift codes!
