My Christmas Home Tour ~ 2014

farmhouse style, home decor, home tour December 2, 2014

Santa’s elves have been busy at my house hustling and bustling to trim the tree and deck the halls. Well, actually it was one elf … little ole me!  Today I’m participating in Jennifer Rizzo’s annual Holiday Housewalk and I’m so excited to share my Christmas home tour with you!

Christmas Collage - My Holiday Home TourI’ll warn you now … there are a lot of photos!

I took literally hundreds of pictures and it’s really hard to choose which ones to feature.

 

Rusty Hinge Holiday HousewalkIf you’re coming over from Rusty Hinge … welcome!

I’m a HUGE fan of Maria’s home and she’s a tough act to follow, but I’ll do my best.

So please come on into my holiday home. I’ve been waiting for you!

 

Christmas Decor on my Farmhouse PorchThis past summer my hubby and I painted the exterior of our circa 1875 clapboard farmhouse.

I was anticipating the day when I would decorate the front porch for Christmas!

 

Vintage Christmas SledI knew I had to have a vintage sled for my front porch.

I found this Champion Sno-Liner sled at Amazing Grace Antiques, just a few blocks away.

 

DIY Christmas Decor. Flocked Christmas tree in farmhouse living roomMy flocked Christmas tree from Balsam Hill is just inside the front door.

The double windows allow passers-by to see the tree lights at night.

The leather strap with jingle bells on the front door creates a joyful, holiday sound.

 

Christmas Decor. Vintage Christmas vignette on a farmhouse desk.The desk by the front door has a simple Christmas vignette.

Candy canes await any children that come to visit (there used to be a few more in the jar).

 

White Ironstone Bowl filled with Vintage Christmas OrnamentsThis year I didn’t put as many ornaments on my tree, so I’ve placed them throughout my home.

On the desk is a white ironstone bowl filled with a collection of new and vintage ornaments.

 

Country Style Farmhouse Living Room at ChristmasMy favorite “Farm” pillow is nestled on the love seat in the living room with others.

 

DIY Christmas Decor - Decorating a MantelAbove the love seat, framed music sheets surround an old school penmanship poster.

A chipboard “Merry” banner provides the finishing touch on the mantel.

 

Vintage Aqua Bottles Create Christmas VignetteA collection of vintage aqua bottles populates the living room coffee table.

Lights from the Christmas tree twinkle in the background.

 

Country Living Christmas DecorOn the other side of the room, a smaller tree in an old tin can adds a bit of sparkle.

 

DIY Christmas Decor. Vine Wreath on Painted ShuttersA new rustic wreath from Urban Grace adorns my painted shutters.

It’s a gorgeous new store with artful displays to inspire and make you never want to leave!

 

Turquoise Glass Ornaments and Vintage TrophyI found these pretty, turquoise glass ornaments at Carter’s Cottage, just 2 stores down from Urban Grace.

 

DIY Christmas Decor. View into my Farmhouse Family RoomFrom the living room, you can see into the family room.

Stella takes a moment to drink in the view before terrorizing the Christmas decorations.

Do you see what’s new in this room?

 

Farmhouse Family Room with Slip Covered SectionalIt’s this gorgeous new-to-me sectional that I bought from Kris at Junk Chic Cottage!

Kris sent me an email saying she was selling her sectional and asked if I wanted it.

Um … YES!!  I’ve been wanting a white sectional and the timing was perfect.

 

Vintage Ceiling Tin and Architectural Mantel Provide Wall ArtI struggled with what to hang over the new sectional, until I saw this gorgeous ceiling tin at Carter’s Cottage.

 

Mercury Glass Ornament GarlandChristy had the mercury ornament garland draped over it in the store, so I took the whole vignette.

 

Chippy Architectural Mantel with trio of Boxwood WreathsAbove the ceiling tin I added an architectural mantel I had lying around.

For my Christmas home tour, I added a trio of boxwood wreaths and peppermint stripe ribbon.

 

Farmhouse Family Room Decorated for ChristmasNot only does my “new” sectional give the room a clean, crisp look, but it provides ample seating for guests.

I used festive pillows to add cheery Christmas decor in this room. The Joy pillow is from Target.

 

Dough Bowl filled with Vintage Christmas OrnamentsA dough bowl provides fun color while a fun holiday pillow by my friend Lucy at Craftberry Bush adds whimsy. She created the red car with Christmas tree design herself. She’s so talented!

 

Country Style Christmas Decorating in a Farmhouse Family RoomI’m lovin’ the new sectional (thank you, Kris!!) and the new Christmas pillows.

Like last year, I hung my holiday stars in the windows, in lieu of wreaths.

 

Vintage Christmas OrnamentsAre you ready to continue my Christmas home tour and head on into the dining room?

 

Farmhouse Holiday Dining RoomI kept the Christmas decor soft and muted in my dining room.

I wanted to create a mood of elegance and magic.

 

Christmas Table SettingA gold and white polka dot table runner set the stage for my holiday tablescape.

 

Holiday Table Setting in Gold and WhiteI found the reindeer candlesticks at our local flea market.

 

Christmas Table Setting in Gold and WhiteI paired my antique Meito China with my gold-colored Colin Cowie flatware.

I’ve had this China since I was in college and it remains my favorite dinner ware.

 

Farmhouse Dining Room Decorated for ChristmasMy DIY Santa picture takes residence above my flea market dresser turned buffet.

 

Farmhouse Dry Sink and Dining BuffetLast month I swapped my dining hutch for the dry sink in this corner.

 

Dining Hutch and Holiday TablescapeMy hutch is now in the opposite corner and I like it better over here.

 

Farmhouse Holiday Dining RoomAll the white in this room reminds me of Christmas snow.

There’s only one window in my dining room so the white helps to bounce the light around.

 

DIY Christmas Decor in a Farmhouse Dining RoomFrom the dining room you can see into the kitchen, with its green Mexican tile floor.

 

Christmas Farmhouse KitchenOh how I love my kitchen! It’s not fancy or modern.

But it has wonderful natural light and there’s no other kitchen like it.

 

DIY Christmas Decor in Farmhouse KitchenI decided to add touches of red to my mostly white kitchen.

I found craft letters that spell JOY and painted them red.

 

Christmas Home Tour. Touches of Red and Greenery in Farmhouse KitchenPomegranates perch on the window shelf above the sink.

I love this trio of windows … the light pouring in makes my kitchen a happy place on the gloomiest of days.

 

Waechtersbach Christmas DishesMy mother’s Waechtersbach Christmas dishes always come out at the holidays.

 

Christmas Decor in Farmhouse KitchenMore painted letters adorn the open shelving and a vintage sled adds color in the corner.

And it’s not Christmas without poinsettias in the decorating mix.

 

Holiday Farmhouse KitchenMore jingle bells adorn the back door in the kitchen.

I love the sound they make when people come and go.

 

Christmas KaleMy little Kale plant is still going strong,

so I turned it into a Christmas Kale after bringing it indoors.

 

Farmhouse Kitchen decorated in red and white for ChristmasNormally I’m not a red person but I’m really enjoying the energy it adds to my farmhouse kitchen.

 

Vintage Style Christmas TreeThanks so much for stopping by my Christmas home tour!

 

Merry Christmas KittyStella was thrilled to have you here in our home, too!

See Part Two of my Christmas Home Tour!!

It’s been an honor to have you here and I hope you’ll journey onto the next holiday home!

    So pretty. Your tree is gorgeous. I’m not a red person either, but for Christmas I love to add it to my decor as well. It’s just not Christmas without a sprinkling of red! Oh. Where did you get your poka dot table runner? I love it! Looks like kate spade.

    Thanks for the tour, Jennifer! One thing I love about your home is that the decor is soft and soothing, but there is a lot of color at the same time. I’m glad there were a lot of photos because it allowed us to see more of your beautiful home decorated for Christmas.
    P.S. Being a cat lover, I’m glad the kitty made it into the tour, also. Hope she doesn’t wreak too much havoc on the decor. 🙂

    I have to say I love your kitchen. My house has the usual sleek, modern look popular in kitchens today, but I decorated my lakeside cottage similar to your farmhouse kitchen and so many people just don’t get it – they ask why I didn’t do this or that when the kitchen looks the way I intended. I congratulate you for having the courage to do what you love and put it out there for us all to see!

    Oh Jennifer,
    It feels like Christmas here, love your whites and brights….as for your not fancy or modern kitchen I LOVE it TOO!
    I love the bright window light and the sweet old fashioned kitchen door, reminds me of our home when we lived in Washington state with a kitchen door off to a service porch. Best of all I am totally taken with you apple green tile floors, they are the kind of floors no matter how many cracks of chips they may take on they will still look super cool.
    I have a French chest in my front room that use to be that colour, kicking myself every time I see this colour for removing it from my chest. Tracy Porter had a resent shoot with Fifi and her chest with this amazing apple green is in the kitchen shoot.
    You my dear have a cottage farmhouse kitchen to love.

    A Joyeux Noël

    See you soon and all you inspire.

I recall that almost every farmhouse kitchen had the built-in hutch like yours. I’m glad you appreciate that wonderful architectural detail. ~ Nancy

    Can you tell me what type of tree stand you used to hold your tree in the galvanized bucket?

      Hi Nancy! The tree stand came with the tree, which is from Balsam Hill. It just barely fit in the galvanized bucket.

    Jennifer,
    So much to love, especially all the white,including that gorgeous basket of white poinsettias atop your corner hutch. Somehow I missed seeing your green Mexican tile kitchen floor before, and I love it with all your white cabinets. The touches of red with the green floor SHOUT Christmas! It is such a nice shade of green, I can see it with spring greenery/flowers, soft blues, subdued yellows,… Oh, the possibilities are endless. Great look, Jennifer. Great Christmas home tour.

    Jennifer,

    Blue is a soothing and calming color and pairing the Christmas decor with your room colors and pillows etc. just makes the decor stand out without screaming that Christmas is here. Your Balsam hill tree is a beautiful collection of blues, reds and ornaments that are repeated throughout the house . I love your kitchen too! The shelving is a fabulous idea and the composition sitting on it brings in the neutrals but also height . Great job and thank you so much for being part of the Housewalk.

    I absolutely love your home and the Christmas decorations make it even more charming! How lucky to have the chance to purchase Kris’ sectional! It fits the room like it was made for it! She’s such a doll! All of the little touches from the ornaments to the garlands to your gorgeous tree are enchanting! I have a sugar bowl and creamer that match your mom’s Christmas dishes! I have no idea where or when I got the set but when I saw your dishes, I knew they looked familiar! Thank you for the wonderful tour of your lovely home! Hugs and Merry Christmas, Leena
