Welcome to my Christmas!
This Christmas is a low-key one for decorating, I didn't get out half of the Christmas boxes that I have stashed away in my workshop. It feels much lighter and I actually like it better this way.
I put a few things in my bedroom. My beloved wooden snowmen, some candles, stars and a stocking :)
Charlie Brown visited my living room in the form of a twig tree.
In the other corner of my living room is a pre-lit baby Christmas tree. This is the one my cat has a love affair with.
Very conventional, I know. No mason jars, no ribbons, no extra special touches... unless you count my super cool Merry Christmas toboggan that I found at Winners. I adore folk art. The lower ornaments are generally sitting on the floor or being batted around the floor but I hung them back up again in your honour
.
I got the cute cup and cup sweater at my grocery store. I love it. I'll probably never drink out of it, but I love it.
Dining Room
Here's my humongous poinsettia that I got for free when I spent an incredibly large amount on my groceries...
I have three gorgeous hand painted enameled ornaments that are too heavy for the tiny trees, so I hung them from my chandelier with curled ribbons.
My front entry is the most decorated space in the house. A baby tree lit up with a battery powered fairy light string.
A Santa hat, stocking and a bear that I've been packing around for more years than I care to admit to.
And my vintage St Nick. I don't know what he's made out of but his original coat broke to pieces when I moved so I sewed him a new coat and trimmed it with gold braid. I think he is so cool!
I had this little tree here first, but I had to change it up when I couldn't figure out what to do with St Nick. He needed a place of honour so I got rid of the tree.
I got this super cute metal Christmas tree from the dollar store.
The End.
I wish you all a wonderful Christmas and a very happy new year!
Cheers!

ReplyDeleteHave a wonderful weekend Anne!!!...
How lovely. Sometimes small is so much better as you see each item more clearly!! Love the snowman....but also, the big A and the stocking! Joan
ReplyDeleteLovely touches of Christmas in your home, sweet Anne! Not too crowded, but a little happy hint in every corner :)
ReplyDeleteSometimes less is more! Your less is lovely!
ReplyDeleteYour Christmas decorations look wonderful Anne, I love your folk art pieces! I was the same way too - I've only pulled out 1/4 of the stash and I'm ok with that. I'm seeing more and more people going with the less look this year and that suits me just fine! Happy Holidays!
ReplyDeleteLove it all, you made a beautiful coat for Santa and I love that big stocking. Christmas at your home is lovely.
ReplyDeleteCynthia
I love your decorations, really! Not too much, but very festive! Expecially mug coat - that's such a great winter touch!
ReplyDeleteHave a great time,
Ana@carpe_diem
Your home looks beautiful! All the Christmas touches you have added are perfect! I love that big stocking on the chair, and that sweater-ed cup is so cute! Happy Holidays!
ReplyDeleteEverything looks so pretty and festive! Enjoy the last few days before the big day is here.
ReplyDeleteYou've done waaaaaaaaayyyyyyyyyyy more decorating than I have! Low-key seems to be the theme for this year - so many people are saying they just don't have the incentive to go all-out. And I have to say, I'm with you and prefer the simpler look of less decorating.
ReplyDeleteI love the vignette on your desk with the stocking on your chair. And your Charlie Brown twig tree is adorable! Good idea to hang the large ornaments from your chandelier :-)
Love it all, especially the sweater mug...so darling! I want one but haven't seen any around here! The poinsettia is so big and full, looks great where you have it!
ReplyDeleteYour house is looking wonderfully festive Anne! I love all your little decorative touches.
ReplyDeleteEverything is very pretty, Anne, I love the coat that you made for the Santa. And the trees are sweet, I only have three little trees, no big tree.
ReplyDeleteYour sweater mug is wonderful!
Merry Christmas to you, dear girl.
Hugs, Cindy
I'm loving the charlie brown twig tree! HUGS clydia @ Three mango seeds
ReplyDeleteI love the understated look Anne. The ribbons on the roosters and other little touches do enough to bring in just the right amount of Christmas! And I love the apples on your tree!
ReplyDeleteSweet decorations Anne! I love your Christmas tree in the urn.
ReplyDeleteMerry Christmas!

Beautiful! You are all set, and ready to celebrate! Wishing you a very Merry Christmas, Anne! :)
ReplyDeleteHi Anne, I'm your newest follower. I was very impressed by your bathroom makeover and agree with your latest Christmas post. I too, haven't taken everything out of the decoration boxes this year. I think that after a few years of decorating I've collected all kinds of colours and styles so have just taken the red, some white and silver and a few green decorations out this year. I've positioned a few 'normal' red and white household items around and am enjoying the understatedness of our Christmas decor too.
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely beautiful, Anne! I love how your heart shines through those Christmas decorations. I am so blessed to have met you in blogland! Thank you so much for being such a incredible friend!
ReplyDeleteHave a Merry, Merry Christmas my wonderful friend!

ReplyDeleteGorgeous, Anne! I love the roosters with the ribbon,the table centerpiece with your lovely sign, and the beautiful vintage Santa. I went a little less crazy in my decorating this year, too, and I think it turned out nicer. Merry Christmas to you!
