CHRISTMAS HOME DECOR

This year’s Christmas Home Decor tour is here, my friends!

I just love this time of the year and sharing how I decorate my home for the Holidays has been a trend here so today I will show you around and I hope you will love my little mini-tour.

If you are coming from Paint Me Pink, Welcome, I am sure you were in awe seeing Norma’s beautiful home. Happy to have you here!

This year I left decorating for last minute due to our unplanned, spontaneous trip to the Florida Keys. I still got everything under control and added simple touches of Christmas around the house.:-)  The last few years I went with neutral colors, you can see my Neutral Christmas decor or last year’s Christmas home tour to see how I decorated in the previous years.

I dug out my large wreath  I made a few years ago and hug it back on the front door. I found these LARGE HARMONY BELLS and added them to my wreath to spice it up a bit. Sometimes adding or taking away little things can change the look of the entire object.

This year I used some traditional colors; red and emerald green as a cheery pop of color. I truly love the little change from the last few years. I don’t typically like to spend on new ornaments but I spotted a beautiful collection of red and emerald green ornaments at Marshalls, and that’s what set the theme for the year.

And crazy me…I also switched around a few things in the house. I pulled sofas, moved rugs around and I am obsessed with the changes I made.

Shopping your own house is seriously my best addiction!:-)

Ok! The door is open, and you are welcome to peak in to check out my Christmas home decor.

CHRISTMAS ENTRY WAY

The entryway in the house is pretty small, and there is not much to decorate. I made a real greenery garland (typing up a tutorial on how I made it!) and added a few little decorations to the top of the shoe cabinet.

CHRISTMAS DINING ROOM

I hung those DIY STAR DECORATIONS I made last week, pulled out the colorful rug I had in this space, and the last minute invite ( yesterday!) over to a friends house (she is a florist) resulted in this stunning holiday centerpiece. I am absolutely obsessed with that large centerpiece I made.

 

I even set up a photo shoot for her lol. I envisioned a moody setup and I snapped a few pics. So pretty, isn’t it?

 

CHRISTMAS-Y KITCHEN DECOR

Simple is the best! Some red cheery pops here and there and my kitchen looks lovely.

CHRISTMAS LIVING ROOM

We get a real Christmas tree each year. I love the smell and look of a real tree. I used the same basket method as I did for the last few years and I still love the look of the tree in a basket. If you wonder how to put the Christmas tree in a basket check out the post I wrote on it. I also shared some of my favorite baskets that would be great as a tree stand HERE.

The red and emerald green ornaments are gorgeous. I adore them.

I added lots of real greenery to the mantel, a few pieces of candles, ceramic houses from Target,  and that’s it!

I also added the metal ring that was dressed with the same type of greenery that I used for the mantel.

And guess what? Just because….

I built another box for my fireplace last weekend.:-)) We built a box ( white one) a few years ago, you can see how we made THE DIY MANTLE here.  I have been wanting to have another color that I could change out anytime when I feel for a little change so this past weekend it happened. And yay for that nice little change.

And then to compliment that beautiful stained brown mantel box, I pulled in the leather sofa….

The Hamilton sofa used to be in the other room. And I decided to tune my house upside down to see how it would look in this space. I think it’s a YES in here. Absolutely love it in here. This is my favorite sofa and I know we are going to cozy up on it a lot during the cold months with the fire and the twinkle lights on.

My simple coffee table centerpiece came together from wooden vases, real greenery, and a few faux mini trees.

Love this view with the fireplace on, don’t you?! So warm, cozy nd inviting!

And just a little sneak of our family room….

I will be sharing this room tomorrow in a separate post. I adore the Gingerbread cookie tree that the kids decorated, and I will be sharing some new addition to this room as well. Be sure to come back and check out this fun space tomorrow.

UPDATE:: the post on this fun room is up so sure to check out my COZY LIVING ROOM DECOR!
