I promised myself and Peyton and everyone else that Christmas WOULD be evident in our house this year. And thanks to Pinterest and some good timing, I have gotten decorations inside (and a little bit outside) our house this year! Most of the projects are 1/2 done! But Peyton and I worked hard all weekend and got pretty far. I think I'll be done with all of the projects I started by this evening. There are several others that I didn't picture. The mantle is one of them. Its so far from done that I didn't put up a picture.
The top of the tree is bent a little- its not touching the ceiling. Peyton insists that we need a star on top but I'm not sure. I kind of like it without. We'll see.
These are cookie cutters hung from ribbons. I had intended to make wreaths out of the cookie cutters as I had seen on Pinterest but that was an epic fail. (twice) So I decided to try it this way. I might like it better! Tonight I'll finish the other side so that they go all the way across the window.
This is an old cabinet we found in a storage unit. We've had it on Craigslist for a while with only one bite and no sale. I've loved it from the moment I saw it and when I needed to move it to put the tree in it's place, I decided we'd keep it. I'm definitely not done decorating it for Christmas but I'm really happy with it there.
We got a bunch of discarded limbs from our tree and others when we bought our tree. This is one of three arrangements I made with them. The other two are on the outside of the office windows.
Peyton needed a picture, too!
