Be Merry!!!! The First Christmas Dining Table

Good morning my friends! I have finished all my decorating so am ready to start sharing all the FA LA LA!!! We will start at the dining room, as that is the first room you see when you enter our home. I set the table and dressed up the room, just for you! Come on in! And please, BE MERRY!

I have not done the garland that I usually do over the hutch, still debating about that. As I mentioned last week, this years theme is "The Year of the Deer", so one of my deer acts as the centerpiece.

He's a handsome buck:)

I am using my gold flatware and the hand embroidered napkins that were my Mother-in-law's. They are paired with a leopard print napkin. I love a touch of leopard anywhere!

The gold beaded place mat is topped with my gold and black china and the Christmas salad plates.

An ornate tree ornament for each place setting.

The runner has beautifully decorated "NOEL" at each end.

A mix of gold and sparkly trees marches down the center of the runner.

The champane glasses were a gift last year. I LOVE them.

They are from Pier 1.

I found these beautiful deer pillows at Bog Lots this year! They are perfect!

The matching deer sits on the little server along with some bottle brush trees and some Santas.

I found this blown glass tree at a local antique store last year.

The snowflake runner is so pretty and I wound a gold bead garland through the vignette.

Thanks so much for your visit! I will be posting 3 times a week now so I can share everything! Have a beautiful week, my friends!

The First Christmas Room Reveal, the Guest Room

Good morning! It has been 2 weeks of decorating around here and I am finally ready to start sharing the rooms with you all! First off though, I want to wish each and every one of you a very Happy Thanksgiving and my hope that you can share it with loved ones.
I am using my Winter Birds bedding in the guest room as I have done something different in the master this year:) Stay tuned. So, here is the guest room: I hung this wreath on the door to WELCOME our guests!

The bedding came from Pottery Barn a few years ago.

I really like the artwork that I have had for many years with this bedding too.

I have had all these pillows and shams, didn't have to buy anything new.

I have had these birds and bird houses also and the place mats that I have on the bedside tables.

I forget where I found this but love it.

My sleigh remains another favorite piece. I found it at TJMaxx several years ago. I wish I had gotten 2 of them.

The dresser got dressed with some birds and a plaid tree.

I added some red berries to this arrangement too.

I forget where I found this, I THINK it might have been Kirklands.

Love the faux fur on the sleigh. I wrap this up VERY carefully each year.

Thanks for your visit. I will be sharing all the rooms. Again, happy Thanksgiving to everyone!

XO, Pinky
