Lucky for me, I happen to have a husband that would gladly have Christmas become a year round holiday (he also drinks out of a Santa mug everyday for the entire month of December, but that’s a story for another time). Any-who, this little tid-bit proves to be really beneficial when the time comes to set up holiday inspiration shoots in the beginning of November, such as this Christmas nook I put together using the Martha Stewart collection at Home Depot! Needless to say, he is in Christmas heaven even though it’s still 80+ degrees in Houston…
Of course I had to sneak a few desserts in there, otherwise there would be no Sugar in Sugar & Cloth, not to mention it’s not a holiday with my family unless there’s plenty of food! Bascially I was raised to live by this quote.

Wowzer! How beautiful does this look! I’m so jealous, I live with a bunch of Scrooges who would never let me have our tree set up in November!
Woe your tree and decorations are amazing and the deserts look delish :)
Can I come over for a coffee and a slice of that marvelous looking cake ? Your house makes me want to make Christmas cookies!!!!!
Anytime! ;)
This is the first winter I’ve spent in Houston and the 80+ degrees in November is still blowing my mind. I actually got sunburned sitting outside last weekend. I just want to be in sweaters and boots!
I totally sympathize! So awesome you’re in Houston, too :) You should come to my craft night this Thursday!
Sounds great! Just rsvp’d
Great pics. I also used the same tree and took advantage of the free ornaments for a store I decorated.
[...] Now, I had two options: get a little trashy with my name tags (and by trashy I mean post-it notes), or I could hole punch random Christmasy looking items from around my house to tie onto stuff. I chose the latter and ended up with DIY candy gift tags made from stashed Martha Stewart holiday coasters (that never made it into this post). [...]
