I'm a seasonal 'elf' who makes money decorating people's homes for Christmas

When I was 5, my mom started a business doing holiday decor in the Chicago area. I watched her transform big, beautiful houses into cozy classic Christmas scenes in a matter of hours. I admired her confidence — the way she'd climb a high ladder and how she understood a client's style.
