I wanted to get a post together of some of the Christmas decor we have up this year. This is Christmas #2 for us, and I would say this year is definitely an improvement {in the decor area} from last year. Luckily, I managed to find a lot of good stuff after Christmas last year on sale. This year was like an early little mini-Christmas opening up all of the totes and remembering what I got! Cheers for bargain decorations.
Front Door
^ There's a tutorial here for the wreath. What started out as a Razorback Football Wreath, transformed into a Christmas one with a "Merry Christmas" sign!
Entryway
^ I made this little banner to hang our Christmas cards on. These are last year's cards that I still had on the banner. Time to take them off and get ready for this year's!
Living Room
^ We received this Willow Tree Nativity as a wedding gift! Such a great present, even though we got married in June. I know we will treasure this nativity scene every year in our home.
^ The awesome beam that Ty made and hung for us earlier this year! It's almost like a second mantle… I love getting to decorate it for the holidays as well as the rest of the room.
^ This picture frame is one of my favorite decorations I got last year! I love the music notes and the different Christmas patterns on it. {FYI - I got it at the Country Hearth in Bolivar.}
^ Our tree! I love ornaments that are neutral, rustic, and "woodsy" as my Grandma Stevens would call it. I am also a fan of the big-bulb lights instead of the mini ones. I know it doesn't add as much light to the tree, but I am pleased with the overall look!
Kitchen/Dining
^ I also scored some garland last year and decided to hang some in our dining room!
^ Sink Window & Bookshelves. The bookshelves don't currently have a ton of Christmas decorations. That's my goal for next year!
Ty's Office
Since our main Christmas tree is a tad on the girly side {pearls, lace, etc.}, I didn't want Ty to feel left out. Plus, I got this little tree last year from Hobby Lobby for like $15.00 so I decided to put it in his office this year with some slightly more masculine decorations...
^ Since this tree is small, I set it on this giant spool that I got at a flea market last year!
I hope you enjoyed our little home tour with all of our decorations.
Merry Christmas! :)
You're house looks so seasonal and cute! I love the mantel decor...can't wait till I have a fireplace of my own.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Kaitlin!! It's so fun to decorate. :) Now to only get that fireplace turned ON! We still need to hook it up to gas... I think it's definitely cold enough to justify it now!!
DeleteYour house is precious decorated for Christmas. Have a great day!!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Amy! That is so sweet. :) I enjoy decorating and this year was much better with all of the new decor!! Ha!
