I couldn’t wait until this weekend, I had to start today, lol!
Matthew was taking a nap and Michael was at on a playdate so Grace and I started to bring up our Christmas stuff.
We were able to bring up everything except our tree.
I put it all in our living room so I can go through things and not have stuff all over the house.
I told you that I would show you my stuff, so here it is!
Here is our new Nativity Set.
This is a picture had I have. I wonder will I will put it. I usually put it over my family couch but I now I have 2 mirrors there.
I love this candle holder.
Here are some trees and wreaths.
I LOVE this cute tree!
Here are some Red Twig Dogwood braches from my mom’s plant. I spray painted the white one last year.
(Did you know that you Trader Joe’s sells a small handful of them for $5.99? That’s crazy…just go outside!)
Here are some of my red things.
Here I have some pinecones, bells and other stuff.
In here, I have lots of sparkly starts!
Lots of garland.
Berry garland.
More wreaths.
In here is our angel and lots of other stuff that I bought 1/2 off at Wal-Mart, last year, after Christmas.
This just looks like some misc. stuff…another Nativity set and different ornaments.
Here is another misc. bin. It looks like lights, movies, Santas, stockings and more.
So, there you go! That all my Christmas décor.
I have a mixture of styles/collections so this year will be a little challenging for me. I might need to part with some of it.
They have “different collections” for Christmas decorating and I can’t decide what I like best! They are all sooooo awesome!
I would LOVE to have any of them really!!!!
What is your Christmas style?
Do you mix collections?
Bonnie :)
You have some beautiful decorations Bonnie! I think it's so fun to pull stuff out every year. It seems like there is always something I forgot I had so it's always a surprise going through stuff. I spotted the movie Elf. That is our must watch Christmas movie!
ReplyDeleteI put my tree up in my room right before halloween this year :) haha. I'm Canadian, so it's not too early.. Here's my tree: http://nataliebrooke.wordpress.com/2010/11/18/whats-on-my-tree/
ReplyDeleteLove your decorations! Can't wait to see when they're all up! :)
Those are some great ornaments and Christmas decor. We'll be putting up some decorations tomorrow. The kids can't wait!

I don't mind mixing collections at all. It's too much to shop each year for different decor. If I want to separate collections, I put one type of decor in individual areas of the house. Like snowflakes in the kitchen, red and white in the living room, etc. The neat thing is pulling those things out year after year and knowing stories behind them, or an ornament from childhood. Personally, I try hard to stay away from being too "perfect." I like all your stuff, Bonnie!
ReplyDeleteI double love Christmas decorating. I like a few styles and I agree with you...PB has awesome themes this year! I just ordered from them last night. :) I do traditional upstairs for the kids and then switch downstairs depending on the year. I also always do a gingerbread kitchen. Your decor looks beautiful and it will be fun to see it up!
ReplyDeleteI'd love to have a consistent look but we have too many things to start over!
ReplyDeleteHave a wonderful Thanksgiving!
Beautiful candle holder! Every Christmas, ornaments reuses the previous year, and how you buy beautiful ornaments after Christmas the prices are very interesting. Your decor will be beautiful.

Fun! I love Christmas so much but the last two months have been so crazy that I am SO not ready to decorate (which we plan to do Friday nonetheless)!
ReplyDeleteWanted to let you know I posted another little blip about Shaklee with a link to your shop - nothing huge but thought you'd like to know!
