Late With Your Holiday Cards? Don’t Fret!

December 19, 2016 by jessica 4 Comments

Minted Holiday Card Review

I’m the worst at getting holiday cards out on time. I always try to have them postmarked before Dec. 25, but after years of failing miserably, I’ve resigned myself to sending New Year’s cards or, like one year, Valentine’s greetings. And you know what? They’re even more well received than the standard-issue Christmas card! No one expects an off-season greeting, which makes your card even more special. That said, I was still grateful when Minted reached out to me to see if I’d like to collaborate on this year’s holiday card. It was the kick in the rear I needed to start the project earlier than usual.

…and then I procrastinated.

Well, that’s not completely accurate. I had my parents take a photo of us over Thanksgiving for our holiday card, which I ended up hating, and then I spent entirely too much time criticizing all of the photos we’ve taken together over the year. Before I knew it, Christmas was right around the corner and I finally placed an order for my holiday greetings on Dec. 10. I chose the rush shipping and opted to go without a proof of my design to expedite my purchase. They arrived just a few days later on Dec. 14. Phew!

So, rest assured that if you still haven’t taken care of your holiday greetings, you don’t need to settle for generic store-bought cards. You can look like you had your act together with personalized ones. Just hustle to get them done today by 6:30 p.m. Pacific Time and use code SHIPNOW for free express shipping. You’ll have plenty of time to get them addressed and postmarked before the holidays. Or, just follow my lead and go with New Year’s cards to give yourself some breathing room and use code WINTER16 to save 15% on your order! And if you choose the same design I did, you can not-so-humble brag about your adventures from 2016! 😉

This renovation sure had its moments of frustratio This renovation sure had its moments of frustration, but I’m blissfully heading toward “renovation amnesia” as @em_henderson calls it in her new book. Head to the blog today to read about two headaches that came at the tail end of our main bathroom remodel.

I am just the happiest! I keep looking at this bat I am just the happiest! I keep looking at this bathroom and thinking how lucky we are that we were able to do this! It wasn’t always easy to navigate the stressful moments, but the end result is worth it. I feel like I’m at a luxury hotel every time I shower! (And it sure beats showering with the spiders in our [basically unfinished] basement bathroom. It was like camping in our own home for the past six weeks — and I very much hate camping!)

More photos to come!

The rest of the shower tile will be installed on Monday and then they’ll starting laying the floor tile. I can’t wait!

There will be a daily matchup on their Instagram stories each Thursday, Friday, Monday, and Tuesday now through April 5. Each vote in the daily face off is a chance to be one of five grand prize winners! My vote goes to Everybody's Favorite, an everything bagel stuffed with veggie cream cheese.
