Christmas family room 2012

Here is our family room decorated for Christmas.. On our mantel I used 3 glitter houses a couple snowy trees , and some icy branches tucked in there. I made the merry little Christmas sign after seeing them all over the internet last year. I cut the letters out with my cricut and traced around them and handpainted the letters. All the stocking I made , they are all counted cross stitch except for the 2nd from left . Its crewel embroidery. When we had the surround built for the fireplace my husband had the builder add little rings to the side to hold the stockings. :) I added a flocked garland over the ribbon holding the stockings.

The scrapbook tree is on the left and the snowman tree on the right. My stepmother made all the beutiful Christmas quilts for my kids a few years ago and we always put them out in the family room.

The other snowman tree, subway art and a wooden santa from a craft show. The cross stitch in front I made a long time ago . Its a stoney creek design and I think it was the first cross stitch I did for Christmas.

The view from the kitchen.

The top of the entertaiment center ..I have alot of dries hydrangias, and the lizzie kate abc Christmas. Theres also a dept. 56 Santa up there.
