‘Twas and is designing a feeling that really Crafts a special Christmas

’Twas the Merriest Season for twinkle styling, each trend shown exactly how to place,

This is the “right” new trimmings that needs to be ordered, picture perfect… so much style!!! So much grace!!!

We followed all the decorating must do’s, the latest have to craze, even the pre-approved Christmas designing lore,

yet the tree stood there twinkling silent, it being… well…pretty… but spoke of nothing more.

Beauty crafted by formula leaves hearts cold and still,

no shimmer of wonder, no soft “oh yes… now it is my Christmas” whispered to ourselves, thrill.

Let glimmers come gently, not straight out of the box ordered or forced, but revealed

by a memory, a feeling and our gratitude unconcealed.

In design, if we’re not feeling, we’re not seeing the art.

Our emotion transmits meaning, it speaks to the heart.

Each Christmas tree tells our unique story, not of prescribed just rightness, not of “oh no! you’re doing Christmas all wrong”,

... but in the way we each design our very own Christmas, through feelings made strong.
