Welcome Friends to my Holiday Home!

 

Xmas2011-22


This time of year I enjoy opening up my home to you and sharing photos of my home decorated for the  holiday season. 

 

Ever since I've started blogging I've made it a tradition to host a little show and tell of my festive home.


This year I really focused on decorating my new kitchen and making it super retro bright!

My children are at the age that they are really into Christmas so I needed at least one room of my house to be fun and colorful.

 

This is a fab ceramic tree I recently found.

I wanted that "old school" Christmas look so I hung the tree and wreaths with big fat bulbs like we used when I was growing up.

Im always searching for and collecting vintage Santa's and blow molds along the way each year.

My absolute FAVORITE new find is this Santa cookie jar!

My children's eyes light up over the lights, and Christmas sounds that fill the room.

Adorable!
