It's all so very exciting and highly motivating (to say the least) to whip this house into a Christmas Wonderland..:-) So here are a sneek-peek at just a little of the decorating. This is of the hoosier that sits between the kitchen and family room.
The framed Santa was a gift a few years ago from my frend, Toni..
This is an old ceiling light fixture that I've set etched globes in (picked up at the thrift) and lit with tea lights.
A little shot of the Christmas tree that's in the kitchen..all done in pastels.
On top of the Hoosier I draped white twinkle lights surrounding the Santa, mirror and Christmas tree. Then I covered over the lights with cheese cloth.
I adorned the little tree simply with assorted crystals that I've detached from various chandeliers I've picked up at garage sales...
I love how they sparkle!
Ho-Ho-Ho
Another gift one year from my sweet friend, Anita...
And here is the whole sha-bang!
Well, I am off to deck the halls some more! Hope you're having as much fun decorating as I am!
I'll try to post more soon~Fa-la-la-la-la....
very pretty.... blessings
ReplyDeleteHow very pretty everything is looking! I love your little framed Santa and the cotton batting Santa especially. Is your Santa on top of the hoosier all white or pink?

Your decorations are indeed worthy of a magazine cover! It is so wonderful to dig through our Christmas boxes and catch one memory after another. Christmas somehow brings out the nostagia in all of us. I love your tree with the crystals. I have a group of small trees and alot of crystals. Now I know what I will do with my bare trees. thank you for the wonderful ideas.

ReplyDeleteI forgot about the Santa picture I gave you! Love the crystals too.....but you know that I like those already! I still remember the friendship Christmas breakfast you gave one year....I remember how special that was. I may have one myself for friends here....but minus you :( Blessings,
