My Home - A Holiday House Tour - Part I

So glad you can join me for a holiday house tour of my home!
Remember I told you it's from 1763?
Yes, we have 3 fireplaces, beams and low ceilings...


 Simple, fresh greenery adorn the buffet in my dining room...and candles are a must!



bowls of pine cones can be found throughout my house
and on the dining room table....



The den is home to greens and a watercolor painting of Central Park
by one of my favorite Etsy artists,

and a big comfy chair with a simple Jade colored blanket from


The pillows are all from here, a great online home decor shop.... 

The den is also home to one of the 7 Christmas trees in my house...

this little tree is decorated with intricate hand stitched ornaments from my Aunt Wendy...
They are just amazing!
Every year she surprises us with a new one....




I like to create small vignettes throughout my home,
and this is one of them featuring the gorgeous painting
 I won in an auction  from 
this year, too!
Lucky me!


 another fireplace mantel adorned with sparkling reindeer and more white lights!



Simplicity is the key for me, when I am decorating.
I collect white pottery and bowls, as you can see!


Boxwood and evergreen arrangements in the kitchen!

 White roses and Christmas greens in the living room..
I love fresh flowers...and the smell of fresh evergreen...

Just a peek at one of the ornaments on the main Christmas tree...

Thanks for joining us...


 Tune in next time for Part II of the
Holiday House Tour !



Thanks for joining me!

I'll Be Home for Christmas

Original Watercolor
available here, in The Shop 

I fell in love with this beautiful blue velvet chair at a shop the other day
AND...I imagined what it might look like in my house...and this is what I came up with.


I am sharing it with my friends over at Paint Party Friday and In The Studio Friday

See you there!
