Although this wreath is artificial, I love its appearance on the window.
I made this ornament when JC was still in the Navy. It is a shoulder board showing his rank and his affiliation with the Dental Corps (oak leaf with two acorns).
Each year, I attach this huge Santa face to the wreath that hangs above the mantle. This year I also added starfish.
I made the ornament below one Christmas when I was home from UNC. It is made using old buttons. For some reason, it is still special to me, and I love hanging it each year.
I just love the fact that we have five stockings hanging from the mantle this year. Here are also a few more of the Santas MiMi has given me through the years.
Below is a photo of our front door. My MIL made the wreath for me, and my mom did the garland about four years ago. I still love using these outdoor decorations since I am not crafty enough to make my own greenery.
Last year I found these matryoshka doll ornaments at Pier 1, and I bought all they had.
And of course, the reason we celebrate Christmas in all its GLORY...
Merry Christmas!!!

Your nativity is wonderful! Your home looks lovely.

I love the ornaments from Pier One!! Everything looks beautiful!
I love the front door wreath and garland! I was noticing it the other day when you posted the picture of you and Jackson heading to the Nutcracker. I love the fact that the wreath has no hole in the middle. In fact, I was contemplating making one very similar for my front door next year!
Everything looks beautiful!!! I love your front door.....gorgeous!!
I like you, did pull out my favorites, but just didn't have the energy to pull out everything. I scaled back this year....I just didn't have the time!!

Happy Holidays!!

I have loved following your blog and now seeing your beautiful Christmas decorations!
We just wrapped up being part of the Tour of Homes... I can a Santa collection as well! Take a peek!
OMG, your decorations are absolutely beautiful. It looks like a show case for Christmas. You should have an open house just for that one reason.
I am very serious, it is very impressive looking. I hope you can pass on your decorating talent on to your adorable little girl. LOL!! Has she broke anything yet?
I wish I had that type of talent.
Merry Christmas to you and your family!
Love,
Sheila
