Come on into the living room and check out the decorations.
The tree on the left is a live tree (that is quickly drying out). If you look closely behind it, you can see how high one could reach without getting out the ladder or setting up a scaffold. Don't worry it is "on the list" to be done after the holidays!
The china cabinet has village pieces that were gifts from my Mom years ago. I like having them up top where they won't get broken.
Inside the china cabinet are some of my Santa's and snow globes
To the left of the china cabinet is my Santa tree. A tree full of Santa's.... how fun is that!!
Lots of Santa's....
Behind the Santa tree next to the front door are some of my nutcrackers (and Santa's under the table)
Back into the living room and to the fireplace
and more nutcrackers! Would you believe I have even more nutcrackers? Last year my dining room was full of nutcrackers on the sideboard, table and 2 trees. This year they have moved to ....... the garland on the stairway and hallway! Come back soon and I will have photos of the nutcrackers....

ReplyDeleteI absolutely love your Santa tree, the mantle,the way your china is displayed--and the whimsical little village atop the cabinet. The idea of two trees is such a great one. I'm aiming for that next year (busy taking notes!).
ReplyDeleteHope you are having a peaceful, wonderful December day.
