Welcome Home for the Holidays
Can’t wait to welcome guests to our new home for the holidays!
This is our first Christmas in our new home! Decking the halls brings on a fresh meaning when you are decorating a new space for the first time. It is great fun placing the decorations you have had for years. Unlike the past, I keep adding more pieces as I find them. While I have so many ideas for the future, I am trying to stay present in this year. It doesn’t have to be perfect – just festive and bright.
Look up for more ways to decorate!
Fresh pine and eucalyptus add fragrance while white tulips break up the darkness.
Don’t have time to string more lights? Add votives for a cozy atmosphere.
I'm not so much a red and green holiday girl. Instead, I love to focus on gold, silver, white, and typically, an icy blue. To set the tone, I love matching my holiday décor with existing colors in the room.
My favorite colors all come together.
This year we tucked our tree in the corner, behind the seating in our great room. It’s much easier than rearranging all the furniture like we have in the past. The tree adds a little magic to the room with its beautiful light, especially at night.
A beautiful, full tree brings the outside in.
Wrapping presents is a favorite pastime.
Our kitchen was fun this year too. The first thing we placed was a lovely wreath over our cooktop! Adding décor all around makes every room warmer and more inviting. Like many of you, we gather here often, and it’s nice that it’s as festive as the rest of our home.
Just a touch of greenery over the cooktop.
A white kitchen is the perfect base for seasonal decor.
Keep it Merry and Bright!
Our old nutcrackers found a new home.
Lanterns, used year round, take on a new flavor with Christmas touches.
It is such a special Christmas for us with a new home and being recently married. It will be so nice to welcome all of our families home here for the holidays. I’ll have even more to share for the holidays, so stay tuned!
Cheers to you and your family!
