My love for all things holiday, especially Christmas, started in my youth.
As one of seven siblings, I grew up watching my mom pour her heart into creating memories for our family. The holidays were no exception. She was endlessly creative, incredibly talented, and somehow made every celebration, whether a birthday or Christmas, feel magical, even when there wasn’t much to work with. There wasn’t a lot of excess growing up, so you had to get creative to make things beautiful. I can still cut a paper snowflake like nobody’s business.

She was, without a doubt, my biggest influence as a designer.
The holiday magic always began the day our Christmas tree entered the house, just after Thanksgiving. Then came our cherished “trim the tree” night, complete with eggnog, pumpkin cookies, and holiday music. My mom saved everything, and I mean everything. Every handmade ornament we ever created as kids was tucked safely in that box, and most of them made it onto the tree year after year.

At Holiday M designs, the season starts early. By September, scheduling begins, orders arrive, and it’s game on until December. I feel so lucky to carry on the tradition of creating holiday magic, not just for my family, but for yours too.
