Come on in.
This is the best type of open house. The camera doesn't show the dust and clutter. I can just shove the mess out of the way, take the picture, and fool everyone into thinking that my house always looks this nice.
I decided to perk up the mantle this year. I hit the backyard and brought in pine boughs, rosemary, holly, and mountain laurel. I tucked them into the fake garland, added some berries, and a few dried hydrangea blooms. I made the stockings several years ago.
I haven't set up the Christmas village in years. I dug out the box and went to work. It needs a few more trees. I'll have to keep my eyes peeled for some good bargains.

Your mantle and tree are gorgeous! Who cares about mess? We've all got some! :) Thanks for sharing your garland via the Nester!
Oh I love your garland. It's so lush and pretty. Absolutely adorable!
Very nice! I love your tree!
Very pretty.
The mantle looks great! Love the fact that you use natural elements, and I love how the greenery goes around that wonderful frame!!
Everything is beautiful! I love your kind of an "open house" LOL! That would be the kind I would have to have too! LOL!
If you come to my house, you can't open the closets, m'kay? Promise? Thanks!
Looks great!
