Welcome Christmas

We finally got our Christmas decorations up! Joy!

welcome
Welcome to our home.

The tree is complete!

Umm...since we have these random nails along the top of our porch I tried to string lights across them but it turned out pretty ghetto.

Lee decided the situation needed some TLH (Tender Loving Hammer) to even out my uneven light swag.

I did a much better job with the mantel.

I love it all!!! The mantel looks great. I wish we had one. I still haven't figured out where I am going to hang our stockings.

Soo pretty! I have always wanted to get one of those bell wreaths! Your mantel is beautiful! :)

Thanks everyone for the compliments!

Stefanie - You could hang your stockings from a book shelf perhaps? Or if there's a bar are in the kitchen? I feel like ledges work best, even a TV stand perhaps. Although one year we just hung them on the bedroom doors.

Gamer's Wife - I got my bell wreath at Kohl's a couple years ago. It was a very lucky end-of-season bargain find.
