Christmas Home Tour, Part 1

Hello everyone, welcome!

It's the most wonderful time of the year!

Are you enjoying all the Christmas inspiration throughout blogland?  

I swear sometimes it makes me wish I had 10 houses to decorate!

I'm going to begin my home tour today in our living room.

I had fully intended on going with a pastel palette

for our living room this year.

However, as I was dreaming of pastel colored sugar plums,

my 16 year old son decided to tell me,

"I prefer traditional red & green for Christmas."

Whaaaat?

Well, suffice it to say, his words stuck in my head.

Since Christmas is all about family,

I thought it best not to disappoint and

this is what I came up with instead.

Santa and his elves....

How I love that ladder from Décor Steals!

Such a versatile piece & perfect for Santa's elves to climb.

Traditional red & green all the way! 

I'm not sure if you'll notice from years past, but my

living room used to have a huge entertainment center on

this wall (below) with lots of shelves for décor. 

It was a tough decision, but we decided

it was time for something new.  I love this new look 

and I don't even mind that I now have a lot less

space to add décor.

I will return with more of my 

Christmas Home Tour during the week.

Thanks for stopping by!
