Wishing You a Merry Christmas

Lit red taper candles with white lights from a Christmas tree in the distance. Merry Christmas.

Before I take a short break from posting over the holiday week, I wanted to let you know how much I appreciate each and every one of you.

You are as much a part of my blog as I am…. I thank you for being the best readers a blogger could ever ask for.

So many of you have been with me from that very first Christmas when I started my blog back in 2009! The blog has evolved quite a bit from that first year, but my love of sharing what I create and inspires me has and always will be my focus, especially keeping things real and budget-friendly.

Merry Christmas From In My Own Style

And while this season looks and feels different, like 2020 in general, it has given me time…. time to reflect, time to figure out what is most important in life and in my home.

It is one of the blessings that came from this past year that I plan to share more of in 2021.

Wishing you and your family a beautiful holiday filled with comfort, joy and hope for a bright and happy new year.

XO – Diane

    I’ve been a long-time reader and have enjoyed all of your inspiring posts. I just enjoyed my first pecan cherry cookie from your recipe. I couldn’t get candied cherries so I used some maraschinos cut up into small pieces, I have been reading your blog since 2010 and appreciate all the decorating/DIY tips and tricks you have given us over the years.

    Merry Christmas to you and your family! Thanks for your inspiration all year! I just enjoyed my first pecan cherry cookie from your recipe. I couldn’t get candied cherries so I used some maraschinos cut up in small pieces – turned out great, very tasty!
