Let's do some more holiday decor pics. It was a challenge to do the rooms with just the one box for each room that I could reach...much simplier. With a purge of holiday stuff a couple of years ago I ended up with just two boxes of tree ornaments and this year I even edited that down to those I buy at Disneyland every year and all the other ones had to be meaningful so the tree is simplified too! Feels good!
First lets do a pic from Alex last year, sitting at the now white kitchen table in its "before" state of oak. (See the recent post as it is now painted white and distressed.
Now how about a little dining room. This used to be the living room but several years ago I realized no one used the living room and we needed a dining room so Voila!
I love these subtle bows that I tied on the backs of the chairs.
The sled on top of the china cabinet was a gift from my sister years ago, there are oversized mercury glass ornaments tied with ribbon and place randomly on a plate here and there inside the cabinet.All the white stuff in there is what is there all the time.
Right around the corner from the dining room at the end of the hall is the locker that I just ordered for myself then suggested Dave might want to pay for it (so now he thinks I did him a favor!) I haven't been married for 46 years and not learned a trick or two.LOL The antiques skis leaned here belonged to my sister Dana, I think she bought those for herself when she bought the sled for me. Treasures.
There are two of these urns on the front porch one on each end simple new cyclamen, the wreath is artificial after years of the big boys with big shoulders knocking the real ones apart!
I'm not sure how long of a post Typepad will allow or how many photos so I will end this one and do another.
