Winter Dining Room Table, 2018

Good morning my friends. As you read this I am at the hospital with My Joe. he is having open heart surgery to replace his aortic valve. And prayers that you might offer are GREATLY appreciated. I will be at the hospital all week, he will be there for 4 to 5 days.
Now, onto the dining room. I set a table for winter to greet our guests. We won't have guests as such but rather visitors:) I didn't have to do a lot to change the table from Christmas to Winter.

I did switch to these winter salad plates with the pine branches.

And I made an arrangement in my leopard vase.

I switched to this beautiful gold and balck runner as well.

At dusk we light the candles, which are all LED.

Except for the ones in the mercury glass holders.

Icy branches and snowy pine cones make up the arrangement.

The little trees that were on the plate stck are replaced with the leopard votives.

I decided to add some snowflakes to the wine glasses.

Thanks so much for your visit. Joe and I have been VERY busy getting all the Christmas away. We have been going through the process (of preparing for this surgery) since Oct. but just found out last Thurs. that surgery would be on Tuesday! The anticipation has been very hard. We both just want it over with and he can start to recuperate.

XO, Pinky

2 of my 4 Bathrooms at Christmas

Yes, I have 4 bathrooms and do decorate all of them but will share the other 2 later. These 2 are the public ones that people see when they come here or we are entertaining. I am starting with this bathroom on the main floor. I got the leopard towels at Walmart when we first moved in here so I tried to decorate with those colors. Notice the soap dispenser; a snowlady with a leopard jacket:). And the paper towels are a leopard with a Christmas wreath around his neck.

I found these Christmas towels at Boscovs one day a few years ago and grabbed every one they had!!! I couldn't believe that they were Christmas trees in a leopard print!!!!

The leopard clip on ornaments came from Walmart last year.

I always decorate the soap dish too.

This guy is one of my FAVORITE Santas.

His coat is just beautiful!!!

Now we will go downstairs. This powder room is what guests use when we are entertaining down here.

These towels were found years ago at Big Lots, they were $5.00 for each set!

These ornaments match perfectly, again from Walmart!

I found these pretty towels at TJMaxx after Christmas last year.

This wax warmer is also from Walmart.

The lit package came from Kirklands, several years ago.

So that is 2 of my bath rooms. I'll share the others when I can but this post would be way too long:)

Thanks for your visit at this BUSY time of year!

Christmas House Tour, 2015

Good morning!! I know e are all wrapping up (literally) Christmas so I wanted to give you a little tour around my home. On Friday night we had our community house tour and I was one of the 3 homes. It was a lot of fun and I had I am guessing about 30-35 people through. I am just sharing part of the tour as it would be WAY too long in one post. I will keep sharing more photos this week (and probably next:) So here we go: Santa greets you inside as well as outside. Red candles flicker on the stairs.
