Christmas time means so may things to us, of course family, friends, food, and some decorating!!!!! I thought that I would share what my house looks like during Christmas time.
I also do a few things outside. This I have only been doing for two years but its becoming my favorite. My sweet Grandma goes out and drives around to find the red branched, berries, holly, and greens for me to put in my plants. Bless her heart she loves to see what I come up with. I try to get them done before she leaves for Florida so she can see them.
Budget.......Well as I've said before I'm dutch. So most all of my Christmas decor comes from you guessed it the Dollar Tree. They really have some awesome stuff but I have learned that you need to go when they get it in (late oct) if not its picked through or they don't have enough of what you may need. Using things that you can find in nature is always cost effective.
I love this planter!!! It turned out so cute. It started as an old mail box :) All I did was spray paint it and add my decorations. I also did put a few larger rocks in the bottom so it would weight it down.
Of course Pinterest had to come to play this year...tomato cage trees. I looked to find some different ideas and there's a endless amount out there with is what I came up with.
I think that I can finely say that I'm done adding stuff to the front yard...but there's always room for more.
The Tree
I love putting up my tree. I may reason is because we get to look through all the ornaments for years past. I have always told people that if there was a fire I'd save my kids first and then my ornaments. We get an ornament from a few different people during the season and it so much fun to look at all of them each year :)
My entryway....maybe my favorite.

Well that's a little look into my house during Christmas. Hope you enjoyed it.
