It’s our first Christmas season in this house, so it took me a *little* while to sort out the decorations. Funny how a change of scenery (new home) can completely throw you for a decorating loop. After 6 years of living in Arkansas and decorating the old house, it took me a few weeks to rummage through everything here in the new California house…and figure out where it would all fit in. Or not. I’m happy to say I was able to keep almost everything.
There is nothing better than decorating for Christmas…especially with little ones in the house.
Without much more chatter, I present to you our 2013 Christmas Home Decor Tour!
Starting in front…
With the driveway and front yard under construction (you’ll see later this week!), I went light on the outside decor. But still bright and colorful!…
I found the beautiful live wreaths at a local nursery…
The poinsettias? From Costco!…
Moving inside, here is my kitchen bar…
Kitchen table area…
I’ve had these wreaths for years and used to hang them on the front double doors in Arkansas. This year, they are hanging inside and I added sparkly snowflakes in the middle…
My 9 year old’s little baby handprint…so precious to me…
I love looking back at all of those Santa pictures. Even when the kids are screaming in the photo, it’s one of the best memories ever…
Lovely as always!
Beautiful!!
Looks great! We have been in our house for 5 years and we finally got a tree and some decorations. It was only the kids' ornaments and crafts.
