It’s been an incredible year at Lars. So incredi

It’s been an incredible year at Lars. So incredible that I can’t even remember everything we did. Ha! This was our year for collabs! @redcapcards at shops around the world, planners at staples, swimsuits with @limericki, nail art with @superbloom.nails, the dresses of my dreams with @printfresh, woven fabrics with @fableism, printed with @spoonflower, towels with @geometry.house, phone cases with @casetify, so many amazing partnerships. Two work retreats. And of course, Tuesday Try Ons, which you e loved. My team truly is the best and I’m so grateful for them. They made us soar this year (otherwise I would have drowned). We are so grateful for YOU for coming along, supporting us, being a part of the ride. So glad for this neck of the internet where we can find our people. Thank you for being a part of our tribe! Here’s to a wonderful 2025!

Merry Christmas! I committed myself last night to

Merry Christmas! I committed myself last night to counting the hours it takes for making Christmas magic because this mama is exhausted! (Doesn’t help I got every sickness passed down from my two Petri dishes aka kids). It’s been a busy, chaotic time but also filled with wonderful, soul-filling moments. If there’s something I’ve learned in the last couple of years it’s that two things can exist at once—chaos and peace, bad with good, sad and happy. I hope you’ve been able to grab onto the good in the midst of life. Sending lots of love your way!

A few highlights from this season—outdoor hikes, Felix turned 4 and Santa visited his party, fun festive parties, Yo-Yo Ma concert, duets with my boy, finding our cards for @redcapcards at @anthropologie, visiting my home town of Dana Point, holiday dressing.

There’s nothing like racing against the clock to

There’s nothing like racing against the clock to get something done, huh?! Honestly, been wanting to make those tinsel Christmas tree topper hats since I saw that old image, but it took a dress code and a party to get it done. Would you ever wear one? Both of our dresses are from @ivycityco which were perfect for the event. #holidayswithlars #tinsel #larsmakes

Can I hear a little commotion for the bed?! Nothin

Can I hear a little commotion for the bed?! Nothing makes my house feel more guest-ready, than a beautiful new bedding set. I’ve been a big fan of @greenrow since they came out and was so excited to bring a few pieces to my home to dress it up before the holidays. Fresh towels, a decanter & cup set, a new robe – the perfect touches to make your guest feel at home. Everything at @greenrow is ethically made and designed to last so I can rest easy knowing I’ll have these pieces for years to come!

Here’s a project that’s been on my to-do list

Here’s a project that’s been on my to-do list ever since high school—ha! Seriously, my mom and I talked about doing it and never got around to it, but since our @fableism collection came out this year, I had to finally get it done using @madewithharmony ribbon! And I love it so much! You know I love sending and receiving of cards so this was a great project for my house. And it’s so quick! Would you try it? Let me know if you do! #holidayswithLars #larsmakes
