Inspiration While I’m Away
During the next few weeks on decor8, posts will be very light as I’m taking a break from writing to enjoy a mini vacation. I plan to read a few books, decorate my home, eat a little, drink a bit more than usual and be merry a lot.
I’ll still post lightly during the weeks ahead but mostly visual inspiration with very little text and of course, some lovely links. My regular schedule of blogging will resume on Monday, January 9, 2012. When I return, I will have some great news to share as this winter will be a very busy time for me with lots of new projects to share with everyone. That’s why I need a break to breath and organize before the big things start to consume my life entirely in the new year.
Much love and enjoy this most beautiful ending to what was, for me, a very happy 2011. With 2012 drawing nearer and nearer I wonder what it will bring for us all, don’t you?

Happy holidays to you Holly and savour all those precious moments only the Christmas season brings.
Thank you for all your incredible inspiration in 2011. It’s been a hugely successful year for you and well deserved. I purchased your book yesterday and can’t wait for it to arrive. Santa seriously thought my new flat needed some prompt help!
May your holidays be bright!
Joy,
Deborah

Dear Holly,
Enjoy your well deserved Christmas holidays. And I look forward to everything you have to share for 2012! This is the first time I’m commenting, but I have been following you for a little while – it was Emiel Hetsen from HKliving who got me on to you. I’ve found it really inspiring and you write in such a lovely and warm personal style, really always lovely to read. I’m also living abroad (I’m Dutch but living in the UK) and can totally relate to how you feel sometimes. I’m getting lots of inspiration and ideas and I have decided not to return after my maternity leave, but follow my heart (well, and a little bit of business mind too) in setting up my own business, so 2012 will be an exciting and busy year for me to look forward too! Merry Christmas and may the new year bring lots of fun, excitement and happiness to you too!

Holly, Merry Christmas to you and yours! I have enjoyed your blog so very much and just got my hands on a copy of your book. It is more awesome than I expected, I got our local library to order it in. I have asked my hubby to get me my own copy for Christmas…we’ll see what’s under the tree! You are so inspiring!!
