My 2014 Holiday Home Tour
After spending weeks decking the halls, I'm now equipped to percentage our Holiday Home Tour with you and I'm so Happy that you stopped by way of these days.
So come on internal and have a look around!
When you first walk into our 1924 cottage you are greeted into a massive open dwelling/eating area.
This wall helps to separates the two spaces. It also acts as the entryway.
I kept the holiday decorating really simple here. I just added a few wreaths onto the pictures with some pretty red and green plaid ribbon. And then I hung up a snowflake garland.
Now let's have a look into the residing room.
My bull skull got a little festive makeover. And then the wicker deer on the mantel was actually a thrift store find. I picked him up months ago knowing he would be perfect on my holiday mantel.
It was my husbands idea to add the extra greenery, and my sons idea to hang the red bulbs onto it. I'm happy to say that this was a family effort, and not just me taking over on the holiday decorating. I always want my family to be a part in the way our home looks and feels, especially during the holidays.
The living room couch is where my boys and I cuddle in the evenings and read stories. It's been really joyful to have the Christmas tree across the room to look at.
I love my Christmas tree this year. I was going for a rustic cabin look. Therefore you will find Lots and Lots of pine cones, some plaid fabric ties,among a few other special ornaments.
The only new ornaments on the tree this yr, is that this lovely beaded peace one from Pottery barn, and my DIY arrow ornaments that I made the usage of clothespins and bamboo skewers.

From the Living room, the french doorways lead you into our workplace/sunroom.
See more of my Jingle bell magnets HERE.
Across from the dwelling room is our eating room.
The dining room has two corner cabinets I like to play around in.
Now allow's head upstairs into our attic bed room. Such a comfortable little space.
Back down stairs, we're going to head into the kitchen.
It the kitchen I just in reality brought some touches of Christmas greenery here and there.
It's a bit difficult to tell, however in the window are paper snow flakes the boys and I made, in addition to a strand of plastic snowflakes. They make me smile as I stand on the sink washing dishes.
You are welcome to leave out the back door, which recently got painted blue (seen here).
It turned into a lot a laugh to have snow once I took these pics. Wishing it wasn't all melted now.
I'm dreaming of a White Christmas.
Thank you so much for stopping by my home today. Sorry for the Mass load of pictures, but I hope that you enjoyed them.
Wishing you and your households a Merry Christmas.
Love,
Emily
