Christmas at our house.

It has been a busy Christmas season here, but I did take a few photos of our Christmas decorations.  It's looking very festive at our house these days...the scary thing is that I put out less this year, just for childproofing reasons, and realized that I have enough ornaments for about three trees, and enough other decorations for at least one other house, or else a giant mansion.  I may have a problem.  :)

My parents had a ceramic tree like this at our house when we were growing up...I found this vintage one at a garage sale down the street for $2!

Poinsettias from Darryl's work.

I made this mini ornament wreath when we were first married, amazingly it has survived, despite it's breakable-ness.  (?)

A new addition...light up star from IKEA.

Another IKEA find, an angel night light.

Our tree has quite the mix of ornaments...C3PO lives next to blown glass bulbs and dancing felt ladies.

Some of our Truth in the Tinsel ornaments, we have so enjoyed doing this Advent craft activity book!

I actually won this adorable nativity from Pen and Paint over on Hello from the Natos.  I was sooo excited, and we love it.  My five year old loves to play with it.  The stable was a Dollar Tree find.

This super adorable little cupcake was from my swap partner, Ashley of Bow and Arrow Art.  I was paired up with her for the Scarfament Swap, and it was a perfect match.  She has so many great gluten free and vegan recipes on her blog.  It's been fun to get to know her a little better.

And that's the adorable yellow infinity scarf that she made for me from vintage fabric!  How talented is she?  Thanks Ashley, for being a great swap partner! It's so fun to make new blog friends.  :)

So, how is your house looking this Christmas?  Do you have a theme, or do you have lots of different things out, like we do?  If you blogged about your Christmas decor, leave a link in the comments, I'd love to see!

  2. Everything looks great Kelly!! I love the "mix" of different things. I like that look better than all "matchy - matchy".

    I usually mix it up every year and do things just a little different, but I have a Santa made out of blue jeans and his reindeer that a dear friend made me many years ago and he always comes out for the season!
