LIFE: Christmas Time

Screen shot 2011-12-22 at 12.27.16 PM

Well it is official! Our Christmas has begun. We made it to Kansas and although it’s not covered in snow and Meg’s parents don’t live in a log cabin… we like to pretend that we are sneaking away from the busy things in life. Hiding away feels pretty good about now so we’re signing off for our final holiday post and promise to be back in the new year.

Date on a Dime: Hunting for Lights

doad_header-lights

A fun, almost free sentimental date to help Grinches like me get over themselves & into the Christmas spirit, is a Christmas lights tour around the houses of those who REALLY buy in to the Christmas theme of things.

A Christmas date isn’t complete of course, without Christmas music… so I’m told.  Step up Pandora. A veritable feast of Christmas tunes, absolutely free. If  you have a smart phone, apologize to it, then go ahead & play Pandora’s Christmas Music station. If you don’t have a smart phone, you can still enjoy this festive tradition of auditory abuse on your local radio station.

STUFF: Pantone Xmas Balls

pantone_xmas_ball-621

It’s starting to feel a lot like Christmas around our little farm house. We’re busy stamping our new holiday tea towel prints (Launching November 1st) and the cool air is just crisp enough that it’s calling for my favorite Ozetta Cowl.

Growing up my mom would buy us a new ornament every year. We’d put on cheesy Christmas music and sing and dance (well, I would at least!) while decorating the tree. Then when it would get dark outside, we’d turn off all the lights and sit in the living room with the tree shinning bright. My mom would always say… “This is the prettiest tree we’ve ever had”. She’d say that every year. To the same plastic ole tree we’d had for the last 5 years. But either way, it was special.

Life: 2011 Resolutions

IMG_0801

So here we are 2011 and loving it! We have so many wonderful things planned, wonderful dreams dreamed, and we can’t wait to see them come to life. We’ve had quite a holiday season…Since Christmas new ideas, fresh thoughts, and more crazy than you can shake a stick at…So here is a look at what you missed and a few thoughts on New Years…I’ve called this post resolutions, but it may be more of a bucket list for 2011.


GCD: 1 Year Anniversary Christmas [Card]

GCD-940x360_thumbnail_2

It’s hard to believe this December was the official 1 year launch of our little business. Who knew that last October, when Cale was laid off that, that would be the thing God would use to catapult us into this great adventure.


GCD: Concrete Christmas [Ornaments]

GCD 780x432_thumbnail22

Midwest Media and Marketing was looking for something heartfelt and real, something…local, to give this holiday season. Sure enough, that started our wheels spinning and wouldn’t ya know it, we landed right in the middle of our favorite material…concrete!


High class design in overalls. It's the simple life of a farm through the eyes of a couple of crazy designers. We call ourselves Green Couch Design and we are Bringing Design Home.
