........My intentions were to show all through the house BEFORE Christmas. But, I got behind, Christmas is over but, I would still like to show it hoping someone will still like to see. So, continuing on with a lot more show than tell - lots of pictures, not very many words. I promise to move on to something altogether different after the New Year starts.
I am still loving my silver bells theme.
What I see as I relax on my loveseat.
Texture is important in decorating. You can use a lot of one color, with different textures. Pillows and throws adds warmth, visually.
This is one of my favorite creations this year. I have used the white house before but not with a snow scene. After the big snow, I gathered up all the other things from my collections to make the scene.
It's difficult to photograph without getting reflections on the glass.
I did need to buy a car for here. I looked for a red pickup but had to settle for the red car. Notice the light in the little white church.
This white desk is where I can use a lot of assorted things.
After I had a lot of the decorating done I decided to make a yo-yo tree for this spot.
The bird always manages to find a pretty sprig to hold during this season.
With time now to slow down and rest, I look forward to this spot. I got eight of these little plates for Christmas and plan to use one here as a coaster. Six of them are already in my cup and saucer open cabinet on the wall. You will probably get a look at them eventually. I will be back soon to show some more and hope you will come back to see.

Christmas is never "over" for believers. The fact and significance of God sending a baby to our world, to grow up to become our Savior is ever present, ever important and will never be over!
So true... for the believer, the story does go on!
ReplyDeleteOne of the things that I enjoy when I see pictures of your home is that I can "see" it all in its place, so I can understand the flow. And thank you for sharing these pictures even after THE day. Looking forward to what you have in store for us!
