Remember, the best investment you can make isn’t always another box of ornaments or roll of ribbon… sometimes it’s investing in YOURSELF! 🙌🏾✨

Good times. Good people. Great minds coming together. 🎄✨

This weekend’s Christmas retreat was such a beautiful reminder that sometimes the best inspiration doesn’t come from a store, a trend, or even a perfectly decorated tree.

Sometimes it comes from being surrounded by people who share your passion, your creativity, and your love for what you do. Thank you @dahomestylist for such an amazing experience!

There was plenty of Christmas, plenty of laughs, lots of prayer, a couple tears, and some really good conversations along the way. 💜

I’m grateful for the connections, the inspiration, and the memories made this weekend.

There’s just something special about being in a room with people who get it. ✨🎄

Only 14 seats. That’s not a marketing tactic, that’s genuinely how intimate this retreat is by Design. Last year, I did this off the cuff for people who already knew me. This year, I opened it up and we’re down to single digits. October 2-3, Atlanta, Georgia. Venue details go out after you register. Link in bio!

When one of us says, “Pray for me,” everything shifts.

We’re not just designers.
We are prayer warriors.

We lace up our boots.
We put on our backpacks.
We stand in the gap, not against flesh and blood, but in the Spirit.

Because where two or more are gathered in His name, He is in the midst.

This tribe doesn’t just decorate spaces for the Holidays…
We stand guard over each other in prayer.

Coffee, cocktails, and meaningful conversation with designers who get it. ☕🍸

We asked a powerful question in the room:
If you’re new to holiday design,or still trying to figure out the business side,what do you wish someone had explained to you sooner?

Pricing, systems, contracts, marketing… you don’t have to figure it out alone.
Drop your question or insight in the comments, your voice may be exactly what another designer needs to hear.🗣️#dahomestylist #christmas #christmasbusiness

RECAP!!
Holiday Designer Mastermind Retreat - God filled!

This wasn’t just a retreat, it was a real-life installation experience designed to elevate holiday designers at every level.

From hands-on training designing Christmas trees, mantels, stair garlands, and statement installs,to working with nutcracker props and premium décor, every moment was intentional and immersive.

But the true magic?
The business mastery.

Our presenters poured out real, actionable insight—covering everything from
• pricing in details for consultations, installation, takedowns, custom accessories design, garland
•how to start and scale rental inventory
• systems that support growth
• positioning yourself for higher-end clients
• and what it truly takes to elevate your holiday business to the next level

No gatekeeping.
No fluff.
Just experienced designers openly sharing the nuggets, the mistakes, and the strategies that move the needle.

Add in amazing food, authentic connections, and an alliance that mirrored a true on-site install, and the result was transformational.

The takeaways were priceless.
The community was powerful.
And the standard has officially been raised.

✨ 2026—we’re coming back even stronger. ✨

Now that I have recovered from my Ufuoma lag ✈️ 🤪 I can finally try to put the words together that thoroughly express my gratitude for this incredible experience that I had the opportunity to share with some old friends and now some new…
From the time we arrived at the Post Oak we could feel the elevation that God has in store for us… We could feel the greatness that we were about to encounter… @xelaelle I am extremely grateful for your heart and for the seeds that you have sown into our lives. Being there was so much more than the eyes could see, it was so spiritual and the presence of God was welcomed in and an atmosphere was created for those who were present to receive all that God has in store for each of us… I am grateful for the purity of your heart that wants to see us truly grow, for your realness, for your transparency, for your kindness… From beginning with prayer to the very end you continued to pour into us and push us! Thank You for sharing what God has given you with grace and humility… 🙏🏽💞

I had the divine privilege of attending Xelaelle’s Christmas workshop for the second time, and let me tell you… it was nothing short of life-giving. The atmosphere was saturated with elegance, creativity, anointed inspiration, and the kind of love that only God can orchestrate.

To say I was inspired would be an understatement. I left full... spiritually, creatively, and emotionally. Ufuoma didn’t just teach us, she poured into us. She prayed over us. She loved on us. Every moment felt intentional, every detail dripped in excellence, and every room was filled with a presence that reminded us we were called for such a time as this.

This workshop isn’t just about ornaments and ribbons, it’s about purpose, alignment, and unlocking what God placed in each of us.

Thank you for creating space for us to grow. Thank you for seeing something in us that many of us hadn’t yet seen in ourselves. This experience has truly been a divine appointment, and I am forever grateful.

She is not just a designer or instructor, she’s a vessel. A phenomenal woman of God who leads with humility and power, vision and grace. Being in her presence reminded me that holiday design is more than decor… it’s ministry. And this workshop! It was my sanctuary.

I’m walking away inspired, renewed, and ready to serve my clients with even greater purpose this season. May every wreath, ribbon, and room I design be a reflection of the joy, peace, and glory that this workshop stirred in me.

This was just Part 1.
Part 2!!!! Oh, it’s coming. And it’s coming correct. Stay tuned.
