Christmas House Tour 2012

I wanted to join in with a few of the Holiday Home Tours this year, so this will be a mini house tour in "broad strokes". I have lot's of fun "details" coming of the house decorating this year, but since I haven't been able to get to them, I'm just showing larger views of the rooms in this post.. You'll be able to see a little of what I've been up to, but look forward to a little more coming soon.

Here's the Dining Room.





 Living Room




Just a sneak peek of the sunporch




The Entry Hall




Hallway Sidboard



and these next two are from the kitchen, last year


 I'ts about the same this year,
 but the day I did this post I was packing for out of town
and the kitchen's still not photo ready...



Besides, I want to share a few new things this year,
so hopefully you'll want to come back.

Joining in with these parties this week:

Wow Us Wednesday at Savvy Southern Style
Jennifer Rizzo Holiday House Tour
Met Monday at Between Naps on the Porch
Make it Pretty Monday at The Dedicated House
Table Top Tuesday at A Stroll Thru Life
Tweak it Tuesday at Cozy Little House

Have a wonderful Sunday and come back tomorrow 
for some fun Christmas Shopping 


xoxo,

  1. Thanks for the home tour Debra... your home is so gorgeous... I love that you also use traditional Christmas colors along with your softer more pastel or neutral ones... I'm afraid my home wouldn't make a home tour... ours is just a little bit of everything and then some... much love, xoxo Julie Marie

  12. Debra, just grand! You're a master at vignettes. I love your flocked tree, all of your buffet table displays, and especially your porch. How I wish I had a porch like that, or a wrap around porch. Just a deck over here, with covered up deck furniture for winter. I want to take more indoor interior shots of my home, but the lighting is never right when I actually AM home. Thanks for letting us enjoy your beautiful room decor, peace, andrea b.
