There’s a little café near my office that completely transforms during the holidays. They don’t advertise it—it’s just something they’ve always done. The owner says decorating helps people slow down and enjoy the season. The setup includes strings of commercial outdoor Christmas lights outlining the windows and trees outside. Customers often linger longer, chatting over coffee while the snow falls softly beyond the glass. The place feels like a scene from an old movie, and it’s become my favorite spot in December. It’s not about sales—it’s about creating moments that feel timeless.
