Merry Christmas & A Winner

Well tomorrow's Christmas Eve so if I'm going to finish up my holiday home tour it better be now!

 

Since I was doing a nature thing this year I decided to do a garden theme in the kitchen.

 

Sensei & friend Cindy came over one day to help with the decorating. 

It really helps to have a friend who styles for a living!

 

I can't really take credit for this amazing window since Cindy did it all. 

Okay, I made the banner & the chippy garden edging is mine.

I can take credit for that.

It was fun mixing up my ironstone, silver & goodies from my stash.



I inherited the rosepoint crystal from my Great Aunt.

The concrete statue was swiped from the garden.

 

A little Rose Hicks influence here.

The wine muff was a thrift store find. 

 I think it was a whole $1.50.



The birdhouses all came from my garden which is now naked.



 

Yes I do cook.

I just scoot the flammables over to the side.

A look at the living room.

The bucket of Lego's are behind the sofa.

 

Christmas banner was a gift from sweet Ann Perry.

 

Our mantel is very narrow & hard to decorate.

I kept it simple this year.



All this Christmas preparation has worn poor Izzy out!

Oh yes,

the winner of my Christmas Give-away is

Sandi from A Cottage Muse!



I'm linking up again with Debra & everyone else for

Vintage Inspiration Friday.

I have gotten so much inspiration from this blog party!

One last thing......

I wish you all a very Merry Christmas!!!

Be safe, eat well & enjoy!
