Thought I would share some of my Christmas decorations. I finally finished up this past weekend, just in time for our office party this past Friday!
My mantle (been doing the same here for the past 2 years. Old irons work great for holding stockings, etc. on your mantle. Saw that in Country Living one year) . . .
I try to add things in with other vignettes instead of totally replacing things. Just makes things a bit easier come January. . .
Same thing here - just added the old Santa cards over the cards I keep in there everyday. . .
This guy has become a staple each year on my old spool cabinet. . .
As you can see, I kept a couple of snow globes for myself. This is one of the extra large ones that I made for Christmas Village. . .
I just added some pine cones into my ironstone here. . .
Another snow globe that I couldn't give up (these caramel colored celluloid deer are hard to come by)! . . .
I kept one of these old Midgetoy trucks too . . .
Vintage houses, trees and snow globes mixed in here. . .
I added this plug in tree this year. These are becoming pretty popular I guess! I remember my grandmother having one growing up - I believe they were handmade . . .
I love fresh greenery and poinsettias. I think I bought almost a dozen this year (good thing they are cheap)!! . .
I took this photo a bit differently to let more light in. We bought two of these old 6 foot tinsel trees too late to really sell them this year so I decided to put one up (and now I doubt I will be able to give it up)!!! . . .
Now I just have to finish the shopping - getting close! How about you?

Your house looks beautiful. Love all your decorations. We bit a chunk out of our shopping list last night...just a few more things to get. Less than a week away!! Merry Christmas to you and your sweet family!!
No Christmas for us this year...husband lost his job. No warning, no medical insurance, etc.,but they hired a CEEO with million plus salary. Thx for sharing your lovely pictures. They brightened my day. I can almost smell the pine. May you have a blessed Christmas.
