Last week I promised to post more often on here, and then I promptly disappeared 🤣 • So I’m not going to promise that I will post more often, but I promise I’m going to try to! And don’t forget to follow my stories because I’m much more active there 😁 I’m currently in Florida visiting my parents, and we’ve been having lots of fun exploring a botanical garden and taking Annika swimming at the beach! 🌴 • • • • • #christmasdecorationseverywhere #christmasgarland #christmasphotography #christmasvibes🎄 #christmasspirit🎄 #classicchristmasdecor #christmasdecorationtour #ashevillenc #ashevillechristmas #visitasheville #visitnorthcarolina #christmastravel #christmastraveldestinations #christmasdestination #ashevillephotography #grovearcade #grovearcadeasheville #historicarchitecture #artdecoarchitecture 
My blog turned 5 years old on January 1! 😱 • If you’ve been following me since the beginning (or close to it), let me know so I can thank you for following me on this wild ride with lots of misadventures 😆 I wasn’t super consistent with posting on Instagram or my blog this year thanks to the pandemic and finishing grad school, but I’m going to try to be better this year so stay tuned! And if there’s any content you want to see more of, let me know 😊 • I did post on my blog last week in case you missed it! It’s all about amazing places to see Christmas decor in Asheville, including the Grove Arcade! 🎄This may have been my favorite spot, so check out my latest blog post to see the beautiful decorations inside 😁 (link in bio) • • • • • #christmasdecorationseverywhere #christmasgarland #christmasphotography #christmasvibes🎄 #christmasspirit🎄 #classicchristmasdecor #christmasdecorationtour #ashevillenc #ashevillechristmas #visitasheville #visitnorthcarolina #christmastravel #christmastraveldestinations #christmasdestination #ashevillephotography #grovearcade #grovearcadeasheville #historicarchitecture #artdecoarchitecture 
Christmas may be over, but that doesn’t mean it needs to feel like it’s over! 🎄 • If you’re missing Christmas already, don’t forget that Christmas decorations are going to stay up for a while! My wreath will probably be up until spring 😂 So if you want it to still feel like Christmas, go out and experience the beautiful decor! Asheville has some great places to experience Christmas, so if you are looking for a winter weekend trip, I have a new blog post this week on the top 6 places you need to go 😊 If you want it to keep feeling like Christmas, go check out my new blog post through the link in my bio! 🎅 • • • • • • #biltmoreestate #biltmorechristmas #biltmore #biltmorehouse #biltmorechristmas🎄 #christmasatthebiltmore #christmasdecorationseverywhere #biltmoremansion #historichomes #historichouse #historicmansion #christmasgarland #christmasphotography #christmasvibes🎄 #christmasspirit🎄 #classicchristmasdecor #christmasdecorationtour #ashevillenc #ashevillechristmas #visitasheville #visitnorthcarolina #visitthebiltmore #christmastravel #christmastraveldestinations #christmasdestination #christmaswreath #christmaswreaths 
Merry Christmas Eve! 🎄 • I’m sure I’m not the only one whose Christmas plans changed this year! Matt and I will spend our Christmas at home with Annika, and we’re going to make the most of our quiet Christmas 🎁 Since we always travel to one of our families for Christmas, it’s actually our first Christmas in Philly, and I’m interested to see what the city is like on Christmas! 🎅 • Have your plans also changed for the holidays? No matter where you’re spending the holidays this year, I hope you have a blessed, restful, and safe Christmas! 🥰 • • • • • • #biltmoreestate #biltmorechristmas #biltmore #biltmorehouse #biltmorechristmas🎄 #christmasatthebiltmore #christmasdecorationseverywhere #biltmoremansion #historichomes #historichouse #historicmansion #christmasgarland #christmasphotography #christmasvibes🎄 #christmasspirit🎄 #classicchristmasdecor #christmasdecorationtour #ashevillenc #ashevillechristmas #visitasheville #visitnorthcarolina #visitthebiltmore #christmastravel #christmastraveldestinations #christmasdestination #christmaswreath #christmaswreaths 
Do you decorate outside your home as much as inside for Christmas? 🎄 We did last year with our window boxes, but I got lazy this year 😂 Plus, nothing I would do could be nearly as impressive as the @biltmoreestate’s huge Christmas trees! 😍 • • • • • • #biltmoreestate #biltmorechristmas #biltmore #biltmorehouse #biltmorechristmas🎄 #christmasatthebiltmore #christmasdecorationseverywhere #biltmoremansion #historichomes #historichouse #historicmansion #christmasgarland #christmasphotography #christmasvibes🎄 #christmasspirit🎄 #classicchristmasdecor #christmasdecorationtour #ashevillenc #ashevillechristmas #visitasheville #visitnorthcarolina #visitthebiltmore #christmastravel #christmastraveldestinations #christmasdestination #christmastreedecor #mansions #hugechristmastree 
Any time I visit a historic house, the library is always my favorite room to check out and the @biltmoreestate’s did not disappoint 😍 George Vanderbilt tracked every book he read, and logged over 3,000 books in his life! I just started tracking the books I’ve read in the past few years, and I’ll be lucky if I make it half that number 📚 But Vanderbilt owned even more books than he read, and the library has over 22,000 😱 • Anyone else dream of owning a library like this?? • • • • • • #biltmoreestate #biltmorechristmas #biltmore #biltmorehouse #biltmorechristmas🎄 #christmasatthebiltmore #christmasdecorationseverywhere #biltmoremansion #historichomes #historichouse #historicmansion #christmasgarland #christmasphotography #christmasvibes🎄 #christmasspirit🎄 #classicchristmasdecor #christmasdecorationtour #ashevillenc #ashevillechristmas #visitasheville #visitnorthcarolina #visitthebiltmore #hogwartsvibes #fireplacegoals #librarygoals #librarylove #librarylovers #librarydesign 
Nothing says more classic Christmas to me than poinsettias! 😍 The Biltmore had lots of poinsettias around the mansion, and they had even more in their greenhouse! I really loved this multi-colored one, but I also love the classic solid red or white (swipe to see!). Which color poinsettia do you prefer? 🎄 You can see lots more photos of the Biltmore decorated for Christmas on my latest blog post! 🥰 (link in bio) • • • • • • #biltmoreestate #biltmorechristmas #biltmore #biltmorehouse #biltmorechristmas🎄 #christmasatthebiltmore #christmasdecorationseverywhere #biltmoremansion #wintergarden #poinsettias #historicmansion #redpoinsettia #christmasphotography #christmasvibes🎄 #christmasspirit🎄 #classicchristmasdecor #christmastour #christmasdecorationtour #ashevillenc #ashevillechristmas #visitasheville #visitnorthcarolina #visitthebiltmore #poinsettiasforchristmas #poinsettiaseason #whitepoinsettia 
If I got Annika (my crazy Siberian Husky) a Christmas wreath, who thinks she would wear it? 😂 We tried a Santa hat last year and she wasn’t a fan! 🐶 • • • • • • #biltmoreestate #biltmorechristmas #biltmore #biltmorehouse #biltmorechristmas🎄 #christmasatthebiltmore #christmasdecorationseverywhere #biltmoremansion #historichomes #historichouse #historicmansion #christmasgarland #christmasphotography #christmasvibes🎄 #christmasspirit🎄 #classicchristmasdecor #christmasdecorationtour #ashevillenc #ashevillechristmas #visitasheville #visitnorthcarolina #visitthebiltmore #christmastravel #christmastraveldestinations #christmasdestination #christmaswreath #christmaswreaths 
The Biltmore is the closest thing to a castle in the US, and you definitely feel like royalty visiting at Christmas! 😍 (I need a crown in this photo!) What other mansions in the US do I need to visit at Christmas? 🎄 • • • • • • #biltmoreestate #biltmorechristmas #biltmore #biltmorehouse #biltmorechristmas🎄 #christmasatthebiltmore #christmasdecorationseverywhere #biltmoremansion #historichomes #historichouse #historicmansion #christmasgarland #christmasphotography #christmasvibes🎄 #christmasspirit🎄 #classicchristmasdecor #christmasdecorationtour #ashevillenc #ashevillechristmas #visitasheville #visitnorthcarolina #visitthebiltmore #christmastravel #christmastraveldestinations #christmasdestination #christmastreedecor #mansions 
Anyone else in disbelief that Christmas is only a week away? 😱 I always get things done for Christmas early, so all my presents have been wrapped and mailed for weeks now! 🎁 Are you done prepping for Christmas or do you still have more to do? 🎄 • • • • • • #biltmoreestate #biltmorechristmas #biltmore #biltmorehouse #biltmorechristmas🎄 #christmasatthebiltmore #christmasdecorationseverywhere #biltmoremansion #historichomes #historichouse #historicmansion #christmasgarland #christmasphotography #christmasvibes🎄 #christmasspirit🎄 #classicchristmasdecor #christmasdecorationtour #ashevillenc #ashevillechristmas #visitasheville #visitnorthcarolina #visitthebiltmore #christmastravel #christmastraveldestinations #christmasdestination #biltmorechristmastree #christmastreegoals #christmastreedecor #giantchristmastree #christmasgarland
