Seems like many of you already have all their Christmas decorating done. Me, on the other hand, am just getting started. I'm trying to keep it simple with lots of greens and nature inspired items.
I'm hoping to share smaller areas as I get them done and then toward the middle of the month when I'm completely finished I will be posting my entire home. I'm also considering having a linky party where everyone can share their own homes all decked out..what do you think?
This is a corner in my living room which ended up looking very Nordic style to me. Enjoy! xoxo K.
The theme of this area came about after I recently received a very special gift in the mail. I had won a giveaway from Sylvi over at Little Cottage and couldn't be happier:-)
All these little paper basket ornaments were one of the items. I hung them on these curly willow branches and filled them with music sheet paper.
Along with the ornaments came the Christmas issue of the Jeanne d' Arc magazine, their cookbook and some grainsack inspired napkins. Thank you again Sylvi...I love everything! If you are interested in any of these items she sells them all in her store along with much more Jeanne d' Arc items.
I will be sharing with Becky for Blissful Whites.

ReplyDeleteYou are way ahead of me Kathleen! We just got the tree up and replaced the lights tonight. It was a prelit and some of them had fizzled out. Talk about taking forever to get the old ones off and new ones on. Whew!! I won't even attempt to decorate it until at least tomorrow. I am trying to go simple this year. I told hubby I am not hauling out the gazillion ornaments that I have. ha!! Your decor is BEAUTIFUL!!!!!!! Love it all and I was so happy when I read that you won!!

Hey Kathleen....well I think you are actually quite a few steps ahead of me! All looks great. I am also going quite simple this year. Even my gathering spots for greenery have all been trimmed back, so I have to find new places to 'snitch' some! Would love a linky party..
ReplyDeleteSusie
Everything is beautiful. I adore the wire basket under the table. I take my time decorating as well. I am just one that needs to have all my decorating finished in one day. I hope you are having a wonderful week. Bonnie

very very pretty Kathleen. Love this fresh style of decorating. Elegant and homespun all at the same time. Like you, I too, have hardly finished decorating. When you use fresh greens, you can't put them up too early. I would love to join your linky party if you decide to have one. xo
ReplyDeleteSo very beautiful,Kathleen.Happy Holidays.
ReplyDeleteHugs,
Marie
