Vintage Inspiration Friday # 13 What's inspiring my decor this Christmas

I hope you're having a wonderful

Thanksgiving!

I'm sneaking off from all the family to post for

Vintage Inspiration Friday

(psssst...don't tell them I'm gone!)

My Christmas boxes are on alert,

and I'm so ready to dig in.

I have lots of different styles that I love for Christmas decor,

but the one I always rely on and find that is the basis

 for whatever else I might use is "nature";

Paperwhites, natural greens, holly and berries.

Here are a few magazine images

 that I love and use for inspiration.

A rusty urn with a little glitz, glitter, and sparkle fit right in.

This year I'm being drawn to more

 neutrals and naturals with decorations

(no ornaments yet)

My two smaller trees are up for the Thanksgiving weekend.

They're a little easier for me to handle.

I love a large tree, and do have one,

but since I'm the one that does the work,

I've opted for "less stress" and scaled down this year.

"My favorite number" 3 on an ornament I found at

 the Seed Box Open House. 

Brown velvet ribbon is what's happening in the Dining Room.

The Turkeys are Restless...

Since Thanksgiving is this week

 I thought I'd better share the "Hall Sideboard",

if I am going to do it.

This is by far my most favorite place in the house to decorate.
(is most favorite grammatically correct?)

(OK, so you know what I mean)

And since next week all the turkeys will fly the coop,

and the little sugar houses will start to appear,

here's the Thanksgiving edition.

My fingers are itchin' to grab those sugar houses!!

I'm linking up with these wonderful parties:

Show Off Your Cottage Monday

Metamorphosis Monday

                                       

Table Top Tuesday

And White Wednesday

Have a great week

I'll see you Friday for:

love,

Debra
