Christmas Scenes from the Garden Room





Hopefully, even though it's after Christmas, you can still enjoy seeing a bit more Christmas around my house. Before Christmas we were unexpectedly hit with some emergency home maintenance situations that required several days away from my already packed schedule. We had a roof leak that all the sudden required attention and that meant traveling around our area to view homes with roof options. I've learned that it's important to look at roofing at multiple "real life" residences. I've seen some big mistakes in roofing choices so we made sure which would work best with our taupe brick ranch before signing on the dotted line. I'm looking forward to the update. Our current roof is blah, blah, blah brown and does nothing for curb appeal.

Merry and Bright in the Christmas Dining Room




This seems to be my favorite look for the Dining Room and easy to put together, since I've done some variation of this over the last 5 years that we've been at this house. It has my go-to elements like my Christmas plaid and burlap holly tablerunner combo, one of my lanterns, and my tried and true holly topiaries.

The Garden Room Sitting Area and the Christmas Cupboard



This may sound a bit odd, but after years of bringing out vintage seasonal and holiday decorations, there are pieces that feel like old friends. My Tartan tins and vintage wool throws, nativity sheep and enamelware kettles, red transferware and ironstone; these are all things that I've grown to love and are basics for my "celebrating" the joy of Christmas.

It's in the Details: The Christmas Hearth Room




Earlier this month I shared my hearth room and my white pieces that reside against the long wall, but didn't get the chance to share the details. There was a lot going on in this big space, so today I thought I'd come back and take a closer look at the sideboard, cookbook cupboard, and the little Christmas tree.
