2. Find Common Ground 🌟: Identify shared preferences, like warm palettes or wooden furniture, to kick off your joint decorating journey.
3. Keep Main Areas Neutral ⚖️: A neutral base allows for personal touches with statement pieces that reflect your individual styles.

Suellen’s sweet Christmas tradition
The festive season is always a great excuse to indulge your sweet tooth, and this time of year poses the perfect opportunity to bring a real showstopper to the Christmas table.
For Suellen’s family, that showstopper is Croquembouche, an impressive tower of cream puffs bound together with spun sugar that is popular at weddings in France and Italy.
What began as a birthday treat at a local French café has become a cherished Christmas tradition for Suellen and her 17-year-old twin granddaughters, Ellie and Sadie.
