The front porch is decorated with a vintage blow mold Santa ..a DIY santa countdown.. A burlap ..decomesh and white light garland..

 On the front door ,the wreath has a thrift store silver frame ,painted with chalkkboard paint. The message on the tray is written with a paint pen..to look like chalk. The wreath is also made from decomesh and burlap.

 When you come in the front door you can see the wreaths in the kitchen windows ..2 trees are in the foyer and the little one on the table by the door ..

 The 4 foot snowman tree

 The scrapbook tree and the big snowman tree all are in the family room

 The last of the 4 trees in the family room is the Americana tree..

I haven't shown you this tree yet ..it is the only tree upstairs and it is in the master bedroom.. It is tree # 13 ..Its standing in a vintage wood crate. It is decorated with DIY sweater ball ornaments, red ribbons for garlands...aqua painted plaques with glitter and red words.. a lantern and a little camper ornament from Target . Pearl sprigs are aslo used to bring in some white.

 The wood shapes came from Joann Fabrics. I used them for our Halloween mantel last year and just painted over the chalkboard paint. I use red puffy paint to write the Christmas sayings and sprinkled them with glitter. I got styraphome balls from Walmart for 48 cents each and used some thrift store sweater sleeves to make the balls .They each got a red ticking stripe bow on the top .
