Merry Christmas everyone! How is your holiday season?!! We have been merrymaking and decorating and I finally took some photos to share with you all. I did keep it a bit more simple this year. I haven't been blogging as much as I used to, but you can find me on Instagram posting more often here, I would love for you to follow!
Now that it's three days before Christmas, I'm just going to post a few photos for you all to enjoy, and keep my chatter to a minimum!
Our mantel this year --
Baby reindeer in the mantel center --
I repeated my trick from fall and used printed throws to jazz up our slipper chairs! These were found at Walmart and were only about $5. Talk about a lot of impact! I adore the bright Moroccan Tile pattern.
Glossy white spray paint gave our urns a fresh finish, and were topped with red tinsel trees --
Four strands of garland, three kinds of ribbon, two strands of white lights, crochet star garland, red mercury glass ornaments, white and silver snowflakes make this garland sparkle!!
Just a bit of leftover ribbon was tied to make the lanterns festive --
Merry Christmas to you all! I hope the season finds you happy and healthy, with the comfort and joy of loved ones all around! Thank you for your comraderie this year, and I look forward to sharing more in the near future!!
Love, Andrea xoxoxoxoxoxo

Wow, that's quite a stunning garland for your mantel, so pretty. Everything else looks so pretty also.
Wishing you and yours a wonderful healthy, happy snow white Christmas. Do you get snow where you live? We usually do but not this year, yet. Not exceptionally cold either.
