It’s Christmas home tour day!! Woo hoooo! Décor is looking pretty similar this year to last year’s décor, but as always, I added a couple of little things here and there. You ready for the tour? Come on in! And I just want to go ahead and apologize for the lighting... I wasn't able to photograph most of the house on a sunny day, so the picture quality for most of these is pretty terrible.
Here’s the outside of the house… not much changed from last year. And I’m still LOVING this wreath! It was originally $89.99, and I got it on sale for just under $20 on Black Friday at Kohls.com. What. A. Steal.
Ready to come
on inside?
The formal dining room is on the right with the same decorations as the last few years…
And into the
living room!! I loved our mantle so much
last year that I duplicated it for this year’s décor, but I added a couple more
bottle brush trees, this time in a light pink glitter to add a little bit of
extra whimsy. I’m LOVING those pops of
pink with that floral artwork over the mantle this year. This view never ever gets old.
Moving on into
the kitchen… when brainstorming which sentiment to put on the chalkboard for
this season, the very first thing that came to mind was “Peace on Earth.” Between the pandemic and the election, I can’t
think of a year that we’ve ever needed this more.
Moving on
upstairs to the master bedroom… this year, I replaced our ten-year old
artificial tree with one of the Michaels’ pencil trees that I love so
much. It fits so much better in this
space than that larger one did! As
always, it houses all of the extra wedding favors from our wedding in December
2007. I ordered tons to make sure we had
plenty, and we ended up having enough leftover to decorate an entire tree.
And here's our bedroom at night...
I also grabbed Michael’s
pencil trees for Jacob’s bedroom, as well as Olivia’s, so they now both have
full-size trees in their rooms. Last
year, we started putting all of their handmade ornaments on their trees in
their rooms, but those small tabletop trees just weren’t big enough to hold
their collections. The pencil trees are
perfect for the small space, while still having ample room for all of their
decorations since they’re so tall.
Jacob’s
tree is still red, white, and blue to match his room, and all of his adorable
handmade ornaments from throughout the years are on there. They are my absolute favorites.
Olivia’s tree
is light pink, gold, and white to match her bedroom décor, and her tree has all
of her handmade ornaments on it, too. So
many precious little treasures.
And… of course,
I did my rainbow tree in my office again this year!! This year, instead of stringing the white
garlands vertically, I strung them horizontally in between each of the colors,
and I like it so much better this way!
After having
the rainbow pumpkins in my office for fall, I decided I wanted to put something
rainbow-y on my desk for Christmas, too, and Hobby Lobby made it too easy as
they had bottle brush trees in nearly every color. There was no orange, which was no loss to me
as it’s my least favorite color, and there was also no purple, which was a
bummer. Spray paint to the rescue,
though!! I simply bought a blue tree and
spray painted it purple. Easy peasy, and
it looks perfect.
Now we’ll just be over here soaking up every second with all of the beautiful twinkle lights!
