German Holiday Traditions & Family Heirlooms Inside a Cozy Home

We’re celebrating traditional German Christmas with content creator Anja Eckert, the face behind  @OurGabledHome  , at her cozy home in Northern California.

Anja begins by welcoming us into her living and dining rooms, where family heirlooms from Germany and traditional holiday decorations create a warm, nostalgic atmosphere.

In the kitchen, she shows us how she prepares a beloved German specialty: hot mulled wine, before walking us through her recipe for delicious linzer cookies. She also shares a charming craft that brings a festive glow to your windows all season long.

So grab a warm drink, get comfortable, and enjoy!
