Christmas Eve



Just a few pics of Christmas in my Living Room,
as we're gearing up for all the fun tonight.




I found this little snowflake tree last year, 
love the simplicity of it. 






These are old Christmas Cards from a stash of my grandparents,
 in little "dimestore" frames




"White" potpourri from TJ Maxx that I found this year.



So far these faux paperwhites are the only ones blooming around here


These are just a few of the presents,
you should see it now!!


The St. Louis kids got here last night, they were running behind schedule do to work and a master bath renovation with workmen still at their house.
We were eating Sushi at 10:00 last night at one of our favorite Asian places.
Can you overdose on sushi...?
I'm thinking the answer may be "yes."...



 I found this evergreen cone at "the Vintage Suitcase",
and used dried hydrangeas and faux holly and greens at the base.


Christmas birdies on the coffee table





...and I just kept this sofa table simple
with my basket of faux poinsettia.






It's always been a family tradition to open gifts on Christmas Eve.
So this room will be a happy mess in just a few hours,
hope your day is wonderful.

Back Door Christmas

Hey, look who's here out on the deck...
My little goosey has made herself a Christmas nest
out of some greens and a wheelbarrow.






I "shopped" the garage for some fun outside decor



A skinny tree in one of my vintage bushel apple baskets



an old red ladder and some ice skates.
( I didn't even remember these ice skates
 until I found them in a closet last week!!)
Note to self: organize and clean closets in January




Shhhhh....don't tell her, but she's just a plastic decoy...


She thinks she's mighty cute!
