A Glace At Our Christmas House

Welcome!

I'm going to start my Christmas house tour in the walkout, and this post will mainly be about the walkout area.  

I changed this tree up a little bit from last year.

I love the little woodland animal ornaments.  I bought some last year, and added 2 more this year.  I didn't want to hang them on the tree so I decided to use them below.

The tree down here is a smaller tree.  We just wanted to bring Christmas to this part of the house too!

Everything on this tree is glittery, and more natural, but with a industrial type mix I guess I'd call it.  Once again I used the I mailbox numbers from the hardware store, and the domino ornaments I made.

Last years tree had pinecone ornaments - this year I replaced them with photo's that I had used on our Christmas breakfast table last year.  I love it so much more!

I also added ornaments that I made for my shop.

Under the tree I used the animals, books, muslin wrapped around boxes, glitter number tags I made,  oh, and my favorite - the bundles of burlap - wrapped up with muslin and ribbons, and with the glitter tags they are really one of my very favorite new things this year.

My take on the clothespin reindeer - German glass glitter nose with a lace wrap.

Lastly, I placed the tree inside a burlap bag I found on sale at the Pottery Barn outlet last summer.  I think I like it better than the baskets of years past.

So that is what you will find downstairs.

I will share a quick look upstairs today - full posts will be coming ...
