Family Room
I’ve become very sentimental about my Christmas decorations. Many of them have a deeper meaning to me. The wreath is just like one that my Mom has hung at our house for years and I’ve always loved it.
Plus we made mine together last year. The Santa is part of my Dad’s collection that he’s had for a long time and last year, he gave this one to me. Each is handmade and hand-painted. They are all truly beautiful.
And Rudolf is one that my Dede (my maternal grandfather) made years ago. He passed away 9 years ago and it reminds me of him every time I see it.
This Santa picture is new this year. I found him at HomeGoods for $12 and I just love him. He’s so jolly. Plus he’s covered in glitter, so that’s always a bonus for me.
Entry Way
I found the preserved boxwood wreath this year and knew it would look perfect over the mirror. I love the little touch of green. Sorry about the quality of the picture. For whatever reason, I can not take a decent picture in my entry way. The lighting in here is terrible (I plan to correct that one day).
Dining Room
I didn’t spend a dime on my table this year. The centerpiece is scraps from the tree, berries from my yard and leftover ornaments arranged in my dough bowl. Everything else, I already had.
if you look closely, you can see our Christmas tree in the background of the photo on the left, but here’s the full version:
He’s fat and fall and about as tall as we could go (notice how the star literally touches the ceiling), but I LOVE this tree. He’s perfect.
Merry Christmas!

ReplyDeleteI need to work on the sentimental Christmas. Nate and I each have music boxes from our childhood that we put out but not much beyond that.
Gorgeous - love that wreath and that is the chubbier tree I've seen - it's a beauty!

ReplyDeleteGorgeous! Your table is my favorite. I was having this conversation with Andy last night about how our ornaments are so sentimental and meaningful that I'll never have a matchy-matchy tree.
ReplyDelete"Sentiment" I know where it'll end up when we start to discus.
