I am thrilled to be participating in A Very Merry Christmas Home Tour hosted by Carrie from Lovely, Etc with 30+ other talented blog ladies during this entire week!

Getting creative with your Holiday decor

Over the years, I have collected various Christmas items and sometimes those items don’t necessarily fit with my current style.  Well, I am here today to say – grab a little spray paint, a few of your various Christmas items and you can keep your holiday decor on trend without having to buy all new every single year!

Christmas Tree Wall Hanging

Upon entering my home, the first area you walk into is our entry foyer.  

I hung a 4′ hand painted tree.  I was inspired by a beautiful Ikea fabric I had seen. However with no Ikeas in our state I decided I would easily recreate it myself!  It really was quite simple to make and gives a huge imapct. Check out how to make a Christmas Tree Wall Hanging yourself.

I also hung a white pom garland and a Merry Christmas banner sold at my Shopify shop at the top of the tree.

Winter Fireplace Evergreens

Moving into our living room, I have the fireplace mantle full of evergreen winter loveliness.

I painted an old mirror with a few coats of chalkboard spray paint.  Each season I paint the frame a new color. This fall it was a lovely peachy orange color and now it’s the perfect vibrant green for the holiday season.

I got these four stockings a few years ago (here is something similar).  

I love that they are simple and classic in red and white.

We each have a glass letter to represent each member in the family – so the stockings can switch from person to person each year.  It makes the kiddos happy to pick which one they want each year.

I participated in a thrift store to Christmas decor series and made this fun Rustic Christmas twig Tree which I think fits so well in my home.

Dining Room Holiday Wall

The last area I decorate for Christmas is the main wall in our dining room.  Typically this wall holds my clipboard gallery wall, but this year I wanted to try something different.

I love paper decor! They always make a big impact and often times fold up so nice and small after the holidays are over. I used numerous different paper goods this year.

Gold, mint, white and regular green pin wheels, a huge gold star and two simple embroidery hoop projects. Evergreen Hanging Hoop and Embroidery Hoop Christmas Decor

Bonus was I made the huge white pinwheel in about 10 minutes out of eight regular sheets of paper.  So easy!

And my table is features this lovely wooden tray with a gold and white table runner.
