Preview of My Christmas Decor and a Giveaway!
This year I’m really looking forward to Christmas! My decorating is almost done and that means I can spend the weeks leading up to Christmas enjoying other things … like spending more time with family and friends, baking, attending holiday events, and more.
And… my holiday home tour is next Tuesday! Eek! I hope you’ll stop by … all week there are different blogger homes you can visit. Tons of Christmas inspiration! Here’s a preview of some of my Christmas decor you’ll see next week!
I like shiny and bright at Christmas.
Throw in a little bit of rustic for good measure.
And bottle brush trees. I love bottle brush trees!
Bottle brush wreaths are pretty too with their shiny baubles.
This one hangs on my dining hutch along with some silvery beads and garland.
Another Christmas decor must-have is candlelight.
I sprinkled a few jingle bells nearby for a festive look.
This gorgeous strand hangs in my family room.
I have a special surprise in that room this year. Can’t wait to show you!
My favorite part of Christmas decorating is trimming the tree.
This year I have a new flocked tree from Balsam Hill.
I love its snowy look and the way it shows off the ornaments on the tree.
I have a few new additions in the living room, too.
And now for the giveaway …

I love your Balsam tree ! I looked at their website, if I ever part with a real tree, they will be my go to tree store !
I bleached a bunch of bottle brush trees in the spring, now just need to find the time to decorate them !
Your home is lovely !

Wow, you have so many comments to read, better be sure your eyes are well rested. Looking forward to seeing the decorations if peeks at yours are any indication. I put couple things up on our shutter shelf/a.k.a. mantel today. Not ready to get Christmas decos out but maybe after I see all the photos from bloggers I’ll change my mind.
Just got Fall put away yesterday, took down on Saturday night. Kind of categorized things by putting in different bags but not really organized to put back in Fall box. Had hubs put the bags out in shed just to get out of living room.
I would so love to win that book. From little sneak peeks I’ve had it’s worth a few good long looks. Will be completely inspired by it. Have great week, enjoy the season
Love the vintage, rustic look! Can’t wait to see your home tour tomorrow!! Would love to win this Christmas decorating book, especially since my Birthday happens to be Dec 6!!
Beautiful! Now I’m ready to decorate!
How amazing to have your home featured in such a cool book! Love that musical note tray, the mercury glass ornament strand that hangs in your family room and the colorful glass birds. I have a few of these myself and usually save them for last as the finishing touch on my tree. Merry Christmas from my house to yours!
Your new white tree is gorgeous. I would love to savor all things Christmas in Jennifer’s book!
Each year I make a few new Christmas decorations so I am always on the look out for pretty as well as easy to make examples. This year I made a couple of Santa Cones that turned out great so I decided to make a few more for gifts.
I know I would find some wonderful ideas in Jennifer’s book so would love to have a copy. Happy Holidays!
I’ve always wanted a flocked tree!! They are SO pretty! (But my husband is adamant about having a real tree, so I’m not sure if I’ll ever get a flocked one.)
Beautiful blog and love all your Christmas decor ideas!!!
I love your decorations and ideas…so pretty
One of my favorite things to do during the Christmas season is peaking into the homes of so many talented bloggers to see what I might change or add when I do my own decorating – So many talented people with creative ideas. I’ve collected several Christmas books that are as important to my decorating as the greens and berries. I’d love to be able to add this one to my collection. Thank you for offering the giveaway and for sharing your home and ideas with us.
Would love to win book, nothing nicer than looking at Holidays decorations on a chilly afternoon.
Thanks so much for the chance to enter this giveaway! This book looks amazing!
I collect Christmas books and old December magazines. Keeping my fingers crossed. Love your style!!! Thanks for being there for all of us.
So many beautiful ideas/photos. I could use some help with my decorating skills. 🙂
This book looks awesome. I love eclectic and new Christmas styles especially if re-creating/reusing is involved!
