Christmas Home Tour 2016

Merry Christmas and welcome to the Christmas Home Tour 2016. I'm so happy to be apart of the tour hosted by "Stacy - Not Just A Housewife." If you're joining me from Rhoda - Southern Hospitality, welcome and I'm so glad you are here. Isn't Rhoda's home beautiful?

Today I am sharing my real live Christmas tree decor. I love Christmas traditional colors like red, green and gold. I miss having a large living room, but some how I made this 8 ft tree work in this small room. Come on in and thank you for being here. 

For the past two years we had a real tree and I love it. I didn't think I would, but I do. I love the smell and when Christmas is over, I just cut the tree up and use it in our fire pit. Pretty awesome!

Every year, I always say I am going to change my snowmen ornaments out for new ones, but I just can't, they are so darn sweet and I've had them for 15 years. Every year I buy a new snowman ornament and somehow it just works with our tree. 

I added these word ornaments this year, which I love. 

Isn't this window snowman the cutiest? 

I have many glass ornaments on my tree and not one has broken in 15 years. Do you see my new "Merry Christmas sign"? The sign has led lights as well. We don't have a mantle so I have to improvise, by hanging my stocking above my vintage Ethan Allan bench. 

Thank you so much for joining me today! Next stop on the Christmas tour is Toni - Design Dazzle. I can't wait for you to see here beautiful home.
