I hung two faux green cedar wreaths on the two big windows with Command-Strips this year and added some cedar branches to the shelves.
Just a few natural touches make a huge difference in Christmas decorating. I just clipped these branches from my backyard.
This Vintage Vertical Christmas Garland I made years ago and still hang it up every year. It’s so simple to make with vintage postcards, glitter and some mini clipboards.
I made another stunning Christmas wreath the same as in my living room and have the easiest tutorial for you.
I also added my Joyeux Noel printable to my French bread board with some glitter wash tape. Make sure to download your free copy!
Do you know that I hot glued these gingerbread houses together to save time? Yes! Hot glue! I wanted them to be displayed all seasons (I start decorating right after Halloween) and I have another gingerbread house that me and the kids made that they can eat after so these ones are purely just for display. I bought some gingerbread house kits at the grocery store and put them together with hot glue. That saved more of the pre-made icing for decorating with.
Genius, right?!

No wonder your kitchen is your favorite room, Wow what a kitchen, great place to cook and bake. There wasn’t anything I saw didn’t love.
Did you print out the Christmas images from Graphics Fairy? They all look so cute on wall hung on clipboards.
I have few things need to hang but keep forgetting to get clip boards, fun way to hang art. Do you use command strips to hang art on your gorgeous subway tile?
Got some wonderful ideas for vignettes from your photos, thanks for inspiration. I see ideas on a blog and before I know it am jumping up to find items to create my own vignettes. Mr.Furry asks me why I do that, how to explain?
