Christmas House Tour - Part 1

Happy Holidays, everyone!

Today I thought I'd show a few pictures of Christmas around my house.  I kept it simple this year.  And both Dan and I agree that it's our favorite decor year yet!  Here are a few images around my house.....enjoy!

Since I have so many pictures, I've divided it into two parts. Today, let's take a peek at part 1!

Simple tree wrapped in burlap

I wrapped a lot of little trees in burlap this year...

BURLAP and RIBBON WRAPPED TREE

And some may argue that black ribbon is a bit unconventional, but I like it!

I just received this darling antler pillow from Kendra with So Vintage Chic. She runs a great store on Etsy.   I love her linen pillows.

 We're in the process of getting bids on having the main floor painted and mantel redone. But for now, we still have a yellow room....So I made the most of it with my mantel decorations.

What's that? More burlap wrapped trees!?

I tore the covers off some books to give some texture and height to my candles.

And I layered my chalkboard on top of my old ceiling tin.  This was partially out of laziness, but I like how it looks!

Our front entry has a big vacant spot above our front door.  I recently purchased a deer head from Kirklands.  I've heard some funny comments about it, but I like him!  I added a wreath and ribbon for Christmas, which gives him a bit of color.

I have a lot more pictures to show you, so come back tomorrow to look at more of my Christmas decor (part 2)!
