I hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving! I missed the traditional “I am thankful for…” post, but I did not forget to give thanks for all the blessings I do have!
Now, on to Christmas decorating! L and I have been busy decorating the past few days. I am doing my traditional mantle again and am leaving the downstairs in Christmas colors (red, green, silver, white, etc.), but decided to do something fun upstairs! I have a ton of brightly colored ornaments (on sale from last year and from my white tree that I am not putting up this year), so used all colorful stuff in my (and B’s I guess 😉 bedroom. And I love the way it all turned out. My favorite is the ornaments in the lamp! I switched out the purple shades and flowers I had here for white shades and ornaments and it’s like a brand new lamp! I think these lamps may be one of my all time favorite Target purchases!
I am also planning on doing my porch in bright colors and am currently working on an ornament wreath. Yes, I am making it myself! I started last night and ran out of ornaments already! I have about 2 hours worth of work into it and maybe have an hour more to do. Here is a sneak peak (after two hours worth of work).
If I could give you one tip, I would say cover your wreath first! I used a white styrofoam wreath (18 inches) and could kick myself for not covering it in glitter or something first! Lesson learned! I will be back soon (hopefully) with a full recap on making an ornament wreath!
