Christmas Tour Pt 1

This is a partial Christmas tour of my house. I need to upload some more pictures! I can't seem to find the time anymore between working part-time, chasing around a 2-year-old + having a virus for a week! Sorry for the picture quality....you will have to click on them to see the details. This is the little black piece that I picked up at the Canton Flea Market for $50. It fits perfectly in my kitchen. I put a little dollar store silver tree and tinsel on it to jazz it up a little bit.

Top of the fridge....I decorated the kitchen in red and green, but used brown and gold everywhere else.

Curio with my nutcracker collection


More nutcrackers



Mantle....excuse the blue on the table....this was taken before a baby shower




Brown and gold christmas tree with E initial topper. (My hubby threw away all of my ornaments when we moved, so I had to start over this year!)





Front door with brown and gold mesh. I also added natural raffia to give it some more texture. This is my version of a French country Christmas.







Front of my house...I have wreaths on all of the windows. The wheelbarrow in the foreground is an antique....I am going to plant flowers in it this spring.








Back door with iron angel






I stuck this iron snowman down in the pot.
Check back later in the week for more pics!!

I love the wreaths on the windows. I'd love to do that, but it doesn't work with mine. You have the perfect ones for it.

Thanks for sharing and Merry Christmas!
