2024 WINTER FRONT PORCH REFRESH
01/06/2024
What does one do when they should be resting in bed while sick? Go out in the 30-degree weather and revamp the front porch for winter, of course. The porch needed some oomph for the doldrums of winter. I’ve said this before – one simple thing usually sparks an idea for whatever space I’m decorating. In this case, it was a plaid scarf sitting in the closet. I took an old grapevine wreath and simply tied on the scarf using red ribbon. I found coordinating plaid pillow covers for the rockers. For the urns, I removed the bows and ornaments from Christmas then added iced branches and more pine stems for a winter look. The touch of plaid added the perfect bit of color for the winter. A little fresh air and a chance to decorate made me feel better if only for 10 minutes.

A LITTLE NEW YEAR’S SPARKLE
12/26/2023
🎵What are you doing New Year’s Eve? 🎵 I’m getting in the spirit for the upcoming new year. I’ve never taken down Christmas and redecorated for New Year’s until this year in the living room this year. It’s so pretty and sparkly. I wish you could see it in person. The photos don’t do it justice. It was fun to try something new this year. I found these candle holders in a box from our wedding almost 30 years ago. Still pretty all these years later and perfect for New Year’s Eve. These are the champagne glasses from our wedding. Cheers! One can never had too many disco balls. Don’t want to decorate for the new year?

Day seven of this year’s holiday home tour takes us to the master bedroom. We haven’t touched this room since we moved in. It’s pieced together with various furniture pieces leftover from our previous home until we are able to do the full makeover I have dreamed up in my head. That doesn’t stop me from making it Christmas cozy. There’s nothing better than falling asleep to the glow of the Christmas tree. I normally have a bundle of faux mistletoe above this sign but I couldn’t find it in any of my Christmas bins this year. I looked through each of them no less than three times and never found it. Where on earth could it be? So, I added the bow, instead. Christmas tree lights combined with frankincense in the diffuser makes for magical bedtimes. All Christmas items from our last home that still work perfectly here....
