Hi all! Today I’m sharing some fun news, and that is that starting today I’m joining the Sundays at Home Link Party! This party is hosted by five fellow bloggers, Kelly at My Soulful Home, Julie at The Little Farmstead, Kristy at Starfish Cottage, Susan at Love of Home, and Jennifer at Celebrating Everyday Life. I’m excited to join these wonderful ladies and be inspired by all that is shared each week!
Ideas for Winter Decorating and How to Cheer Up Your Home
We’ve all talked about it, and we’ve definitely all felt it! As soon as I take down Christmas, I’m relishing the clean, pared down aesthetic. For awhile. And then, not so much. My house starts to feel pretty bare, and on top of that, it’s cold, it’s dreary, and it makes me long for spring.
Maison de Cinq Holiday Gift Guide-Part Two-by Category!
As promised, today I’m sharing Part Two of my Holiday Gift Guide! Hopefully you read Part One which I posted last Friday. As I mentioned in that post, my holiday gift guide is so extensive I decided to split it into two parts. Friday, I released the Men, Women, and Teens sections and today, I’m concentrating on personality types. So whether you have a fashionista sister, homebody mother, or a foodie friend, I’ve got the right gift for you!
Maison de Cinq’s 2017 Holiday Gift Guide – by Category!
It’s that time of year again; the gift-giving season is officially upon us! And let’s face it, a lot of us struggle when it comes to getting the right gift for all the people on our holiday gift list.

So to help alleviate that problem, this year I’ve compiled a comprehensive holiday gift guide for everyone on your list – by category!
Nordstrom Anniversary Sale – My Favorites!
Happy Thursday friends, and not just any Thursday! Today is the first day of Early Access to the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale! That means if you are a Nordstrom card holder, you can shop the sale today, 8 days before the general public!
Normally I’m not a huge sale person when it comes to fashion. I don’t line up for warehouse sales, or run to the Zara sale when it comes (even though I adore that store). But the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale is truly a one-of-a-kind event. This sale is the only sale I’ve heard of that marks down things that are new! That’s right, brand-new-for-fall items at super-sale prices! You don’t have to wait to get that item you love, so that by the time it finally goes on sale, the season is almost over. You can buy your new fall items, at a discount, and wear them first thing in the fall!! How great is that?!
Friday Favorites – Mad for Plaid
Plaid in fashion…..
One of my favorite pins ever! Love the colorful scarf against the camel coat. |
I’m seriously in love with this coat! Why am I such a coat person when I live in Southern California???! |
Tartain pants! Adorable. |
Perfect casual winter day outfit! And those red wellies!! |
Plaid in Christmas decor….

Love the pop this plaid gives to this otherwise very neutral room. And how cute are those window shades? |
Just lovely. Via Craftaholics Anonymous. |
This is a tablescape I did recently using my new plates from Home Goods. The whole tablescape (with sources) can be seen here. |

Again, just a touch of plaid in a neutral room can be very sophisticated. |
