Christmas Sneak Peek

Well, hello-hello! Anyone there? 😉 Sorry for being MIA, but I’ve been having fun decorating our home for Christmas.  Join me and I’ll show you what I’ve been working on.
 So, I decided to go with a red and green theme throughout the house.
I found the Deer at Homegoods and decided to use them as a focal point on the dining room table.
I layered my items to make it interesting.  I used two table runners and began to place things to my liking.  I used the candle votives to hold an ornament on either side.
Mr. Santa stands between two trees and a large berry wreath hangs above on my iron gate.
I used gold, red, and green throughout the dining room. 
I got creative in the kitchen. I took down my curtains and used a lit garland around my curtain rod, and then hung ornaments from ribbon and varied them at different heights. 
This is a view from my front porch looking into the house.  This is the Living Room tree.
I have two upper windows in the Dining Room and I sat ornaments on candle votives. I love the sparkle in the window.
This is the family room tree during daylight hours, no lights were turned on. This is our funky, wild, crazy, and fun looking tree.
Below is another tree I am working on with bubble lights.
I’m introducing red into the kitchen for the holidays, too!
So now that everything is just about done, I can now kick my feet up and enjoy the sparkle, shimmer, and shine. I hope to be loading a bunch of pictures to share soon, so stay tuned! Thanks for visiting! XO, Liz

  38. Sure enough, Liz, you make everything look so magical during the holidays! I really like your "funky" tree!! I love, love bubble lights and I cannot wait to see what you've done with them. I remember my Grandmother having some of them that she used on her tree. I am getting my Christmas stuff out this weekend. I cannot decide what color I'll be using, the red/green or the bronze/cream/gold this year. I always miss the one that I don't use! ha ha We've never put it up before Thanksgiving but I think I've convinced hubby it needs to go up early this year!! HAHappy Thanksgiving to you and your sweet family. Hugs

  50. Happy Thanksgiving to you and your family Liz! You are so lucky to have your family still with you. My two are all grown up now and living on their own. Unfortunately not close enough to us! I'm thankful to visit with them on Skype, but definitely not the same as having them home. When they do come to visit is when I'm most content and happy…Take care
