A Red & Green Christmas...


The sitting room is glittering and sparkling
in the gorgeousness of Christmas!
With a theme of red and green.
Dishes full of tinsel rope...
Red spotty reindeer's hand-crafted from felt.
Mini fabric teddy bear ornaments...
red and gold stars with sparkles...
A tin Santa at the top of the tree...
And pretty gingham bows...
A wreath and a Christmas bear...
And Santa too!
A little reminder, if friends have left gifts under the tree already...
'Do Not Open Till Christmas!'
Snowman and his Christmas present sack...
And sweet wee birds, 
wearing hats!
A dove or two, 
that represent peace...
Angelica the Christmas Angel bear
says "Merry Christmas to you'.
All hearts come home for Christmas.

'Santa, I've been a good Doggie'...
There's bunting...
and a book paper butterfly...
I love the way the mantel looks!
So here's another pic!

In a basket... there's a sweet Christmas bird.

 And books all about Christmas!
Wishing all my friends and followers...
a merry happy and safe Christmas!


Arabella loves Christmas too!




Purple Christmas Wreath...

In LOVE with purple...
It is one of my most favourite colours!
This wreath was created to add a pop of purple
 to the dining table for Christmas.
 Purples in all shades,
 Combined with white roses.
 With a candle in a crystal bowl for the focal centrepiece...

 And glittering filigree doves to symbolise peace...

 All created on a willow wreath base...

Using artificial flowers...
and baubles.
Thank goodness for glue guns!

Add a little cut glass prettiness...

Place the wreath on a cake stand.
With a gingham (or plaid) table cloth.
Fill up the jar with lollies...
(well it was full...
but taking photographs requires some extra energy!)

And there you have a pretty bit of purple Christmas!







White & Silver Christmas...

Do you remember when I said I had planned a red and green Christmas...
Well that has changed a little....
because when I started to unpack the boxes
 I found joyous Christmas bits and pieces!
All themed colour planning went West!
I do admire those fellow bloggers 
with their colour themed rooms in single shades.
And I honestly had every intention to commit! 
My planning list proves this.
But opening those boxes of colourful Christmas was just too much for me...
now my Christmas decor' is red, green and gold...
(as I had planned)
but also 
aqua, silver and white...
there's even a hint of purple too!
I did manage to control my colour glee
so the colours were co-ordinated to specific areas of the house.
(All my one colour Christmas friends will be pleased to hear this!)

Here is a peek at the dining room.
Silver sparkles...
Glitter sparkles...
Frosty coloured beads with Aqua...
Silver baubles...
Believe sign...
Candles...
Butterflies...
Birds and snowflakes...
Christmas tree...
Tinsel and silver birds...
Hand-crafted peg angels...
Christmas smiles...
Isn't she funky with those wire legs?
Did I say candles?
Santa's...
And tiered cake plates
 full of glittering baubles in all sizes...
OH HOW I LOVE CHRISTMAS!
