The weekly December holiday cheer continues this week on Coffee Monday, as we’re joined by the dynamic duo, Nina Dictos Jone and Sophie I. Garcia, the Sissy Elves themselves! With their festive sisterly energy and love for all things Christmas, they take us behind the scenes of their creative process - from designing and decorating Christmas trees to bringing holiday cheer into homes and businesses across the Valley.

They’re spilling on the holiday decor trends they’re loving this year and reminding us that, “Christmas isn’t meant to be perfect, it’s meant to be yours.” 🎄✨

So grab that cozy cup of hot cocoa and settle in for some holiday magic (and maybe even snag a Sissy Elves design spot for 2026!).
