Amanda Ware

Known as the "Christmas Queen," Amanda Ware has a remarkable story that makes her highly qualified to educate and mentor entrepreneurs in starting their own businesses. Her passion for the Christmas season, inherited from her grandmother, inspired her to create a warm and welcoming home for her own family. With a background in teaching, Amanda realized that learning is the catalyst for personal growth and reinvention. When her sister's viral Christmas tree decoration sparked a demand for designer ribbon, Amanda saw an entrepreneurial opportunity. Despite her initial doubts, the unwavering support of her sister and husband pushed her to take the risk. With the launch of Hello Holidays, Amanda's online store, she experienced the joy of fulfilling orders and witnessing the magic her products brought to people's holiday seasons. As the business grew, she embraced the advice to go all-in and made "Merry Making" her full-time career. Now, with a team of Merry Makers, Amanda continues to expand Hello Holidays beyond Christmas decorations, aiming to create a sense of belonging and invite magic into homes year-round. Her personal connection to every order and her desire to bring out the spark of magic in others make Amanda a dedicated and qualified mentor for aspiring soulblaizers.

As the founder and owner of Hello Holidays, Amanda believes celebrations should bring joy, even to the host. Starting with Christmas, it is her goal to take the stress out of planning life celebrations in order to make way for togetherness and lifelong memories. Here, you will find community and creative inspiration to confidently and beautifully decorate your home. We believe that when you love your space, you feel more comfortable welcoming others in. Have the party, host the meal, INVITE THEM OVER, and let us help you create elevated, one-of-a-kind experiences for you and your guests.
