    Christmas Round-up

    Since it's almost Christmas and I still haven't shared things like our mantel, I thought it was time for a Christmas Round Up! Yee-Haw!!!

    So what's Christmas without a mantel? We went a little on the sparse side this Christmas, a simple ball garland with lots of sparkle!
    Arthur (our artificial deer head) declares his love for Santa. And a little Amaryllis on a side table!
    Last, we have our Christmas Coffee Table display. We had this old glass thing that I filled with Christmas Balls and quickly flipped over (so all the balls wouldn't fall out . . . Seriously you basically have to be a Ninja to make this work . . . lucky I AM a bit of a Ninja :p)
    Our Christmas Tree,
    Our Ornaments:
    Our 3 wreath door, and Red Wrapping paper!
    And my favorite from this year . . . Our Christmas Staircase!
    And last . . . one of our Christmas card outtakes . . . at this point I had poked Lee in the head with the Christmas Ball wire and I was laughing . . . He's still posing although completely fed up with the entire situation :).

    MERRY CHRISTMAS!!

    Wishing you a cozy Christmas . . . filled with comfy Socks!

      Beautiful decor, I popped over form Hodge-Podge to look at your awesome barn door, trying to convince the hubby we need one for the office.....I think you pic will do the trick.

      Merry Christmas
      PS: LOVE the antler and sock pics!!!

      Ninja secret. Use a piece of cardboard to keep the ornaments in the glass until it is complete overturned and on the table. Gently slide cardboard out. (You don't have to publish this.)

      Ugh...having trouble posting. Hope this goes through. Love all of your decor, but then again, I love everything you do! You always amaze me. Okay, those outake pics are hilarious!! Love the socks, remind me of sock monkeys. And, I agree...I use a paper plate to do the trick when filling a cloche, then just slide it out.

      I love that your home reads Christmassy without being too overwhelming. I love your style approach-small thoughtful touches go a long way! Thanks for the many inspirations.

      Thanks Shawna!
      Our Tree came from Craigslist! We wanted a 12 foot tree but had a $200 budget, I would definitely start checking Craigslist around November!! Hope that helps a bit!
      Lots of Love
