Good Morning Friends ~

I woke up so happy this morning.  There was snow on the ground and Kristin & Jenny was sleeping in the guest room.  What more could a Mom ask for.

We had coffee, and then an amazing breakfast ~

Today I want to share our Christmas Family Room ~

I will start with the tree.

I did something a little different this year ~ I’m not very good at stringing garland, but I wanted to give it a try.

Earlier in the month I made the Merry Christmas Garland

See here:   https://muchloverose.wordpress.com/2016/11/02/christmas-tree-garland/

As I started going around the tree with the garland some was right side up and some was upside down – I did not like the way it was turning out so I cut the ribbon and proceeded to insert the pieces onto the tree.

This was a lot easier.

 

The Mantle ~

I purchased a dough bowl this year something I have wanted for a long time. I was going to make 6 quilted Christmas balls, but that didn’t happen.  I did make one.

There she is right next to the candle.

Next year I hope to be more organized and finish up the other 5 ~

But, I do like the way the arrangement came together.

A few more pictures of our Christmas Family Room ~

New is the plaid pillow – I love it because it is all the same material and the colors are Christmas ~

This arrangement is new this year too.  I had these snowmen left after decorating and couldn’t put them back into the bins so they found a place on the sofa table.

 

Have a wonderful day.

Much Love,

Rose
