A Cozy Holiday Season 🎄

Hey, friends!

Christmas in my family comes with plenty of traditions: watching movies, decorating, making cookies, and visiting the same Christmas tree farm we’ve been going to for over two decades.

This year, I wanted to bring a little of that feeling into Vibes Vault—with fresh holiday designs, some nostalgia, and plenty of cozy comfort.

A little shop full of Christmas memories

Every year, my family visits the same Christmas tree farm in Snoqualmie, Washington. The family who owns it remembers us when we come back, which makes the visit feel even more special.

My favorite part is the little shop. There’s free hot cider, candy canes, and handmade goodies made by the family: stockings, ornaments, blankets, decorations, jewelry, and more.

Over the years, we’ve collected so many of their handmade ornaments. Decorating the tree means getting to enjoy those little finds all over again, along with the memories that come with them.

It makes me happy to return each year and see that family still doing what they do. Supporting their small business has become part of our Christmas tradition.

My kind of Christmas outfit

I love that people go all out for ugly sweater parties. But my own holiday wardrobe priorities are pretty simple: Will I be warm? Will I be comfortable?

Every Christmas, I get a new sweater and blanket to keep cozy through the winter. Even so, when I started thinking about this year’s collection, I realized I didn’t actually have much Christmas attire.

Apparently, collecting cozy things and having something festive to wear are two different projects.

So I started designing pieces I’d want to wear myself. I leaned into Y2K-inspired art to bring back a little nostalgia, while creating designs I could enjoy beyond December. If something makes me happy, I want to keep wearing it after the decorations come down!

That mix of holiday memories, nostalgia, and everyday comfort inspired this new line.

One person behind the holiday hustle

Coming up with art is the fun part for me. Bringing a collection into the shop takes a lot of work behind the scenes.

Vibes Vault is still a one-person business—me! I’m creating the designs, updating the website, planning, organizing, and figuring things out as I go. I want to keep sharing that human side, because it’s a big part of this shop’s story.

My goal this season is to take part in as many local holiday events as I can. I’d love to introduce more people to my art, meet other small business owners, and make connections in the community.

After years of looking forward to that little tree-farm shop, it feels especially meaningful to work toward sharing my own creations in person.

One opening, then back into the Vault 🔐

For 2026, the Halloween and Christmas collections will each have one Vault opening. Once their opening ends, they’ll be locked away again.

The holiday collection is a little piece of my Christmas world, and I’m excited to share it with you. I hope you find something that brings back a good memory—or becomes part of a new one.

Thanks for supporting the human behind Vibes Vault. Wishing you a season full of cozy moments, good company, and cookies worth going back for.

💛 Jessie
