Dining Room Christmas Decor

Merry Christmas!!

I have been having internet problems since my post a week ago, and I missed being able to share more Christmas decor with you. I also missed wishing you all a Merry Christmas. I appreciate each and every one of my "blogging friends", and all your lovely and kind comments.

Here is a picture of me from my very first Christmas. I cannot help but notice the wall color and curtains are things I would love to have today!

I hope you have enjoyed this Christmas season, and I wish you blessings in the New Year!

I have finished decorating our living room for Christmas;
so here is a series of pictures of the completed decor!

A gift lovingly wrapped for a friend.

My Teacup Tree
I hung little teacups, teapots, vintage hankies, tiny spoons,
and little pink crystals on this tree.
Here's a closeup:







The base of the teacup tree holds pastel nutcrackers, pink candy, and Clara with a miniature rose teaset.
Pink Santa, reindeer w/pink roses, vintage Christmas postcard...... all adding Christmas touches to my china hutch in the dining room.
(I just received the pink Santa yesterday as part of a Secret Santa exchange from one of my groups. I think he feels right at home with all the pink!)

A corner of our dining room, where I have just hung my pretty new peony print (see post below). You can see a little glimpse of my teacup tree here, which I will show more of in a later post.


I received this GORGEOUS framed peony print from Michele at Sweet Yesterdays. I just love it!

Visit her website at www.sweetyesterdays.com where you will find lots of beautiful items for your home!

Thank you, Michele!!

A stocking I made from an old blue & white quilt.

I really liked the colors of this little Christmas print, so I matted it in Victorian material and painted a frame white, to display it in the master bath for the holidays.

This little tree is in the living room in front of the window. It has a garland of roses and lace; I kept it quite simple.

Even the birdcage gets some special Christmas touches -- a miniature pink wreath on the cage door -- a tiny Christmas tree nested in a small teapot........ and an angel keeping watch.

I found this sweet little angel at a thrift store, and she is now residing under our living room Christmas tree with the other angels.

She is "Midwest of Cannon Falls" and is holding a little Christmas wreath.
