Welcome to my Christmas Home Tour sweet friends-I’m so happy you’re here~
Now, do you have a minute to visit with me?
The Husband and I have very simple outdoor decorations, the highlight of our outdoor decor are Fitz & Fiona, our deer friends! (Our tiny granddaughters just love Fitz & Fiona!)
Coming into the foyer I have my Jesse Tree (I’m just a bit late getting all the decorations on it!) and a lantern…
And inside my lantern ...some little vintage deer, you know how I love deer...
We went with a flocked tree this year! I have a video on my YouTube channel about decorating a flocked tree! I LOVE it, it's perfect for my Snowy-Woodland Theme in the den!
The mantle continues the snowy woodland theme...and I added a little plaid this year.
I guess you can tell that I love to fill lanterns with lights and tiny pretty things...the lanterns on the mantle are home to a red bird in her nest...
My tiny granddaughters love multicolored lights and I gotta say- I love 'em too...
Nothing cozier than sitting here listening to the quiet descend on a busy day...
And back here, in our little reading area I've covered the pillows with red plaid and put the tiny girls Christmas books within easy reach. We love to snuggle in with one of those babies and read a book... (Mike's DIY Tree Stump Table is posted HERE)
The den opens up into the eat in area of the kitchen. Mike is making these boxes out of ancient wood for Christmas presents...I snagged this one for my Christmas centerpiece...
I carried my snowy woodland theme into the kitchen, don't you like to do that? Take your theme from one room to the next...
I also carried my plaid into the kitchen...I love these little holly wreaths I made out of a garland....
In the kitchen you'll see that I stole another one of Mike's boxes...I really needed it after all and although he rolled his eyes, I'm pretty sure he didn't mind :)I repeated the plaid and holly on the kitchen cabinets…
Right off the kitchen, is the dining room. Instead of a snowy woodland theme, I went with an icy woodland theme in here...(There's a video the Youtube Channel about decorating this little tree...)
Do you love these little houses? I do something different with them every year...this Christmas they make up the dining room centerpiece...
We have our master on the main level so I like to add a little something in here...
I did a video tour if you’d like to see it! ox

December 5, 2013 at 7:19 amYour home is beautiful. I especially loved the holly wreaths, so wonderfully simple. I love that! The candle with the holly around it is pretty as well. Thanks for sharing 🙂

Jerri says
December 5, 2013 at 7:55 amBeautiful! Where did you find the holly garland? Such a pretty touch. Is your flocked tree real?
Robin says
December 5, 2013 at 8:44 amJerri, I got the holly garland at a local floral design store but you could do this with most any garland…I literally took it apart and put it back together to make little wreaths! It was easy, I just made them while I watched Christmas movies! ox And the tree is real!!!! A local nursery, Pikes Nurseries flocks them on site and they are just stunning in person. Merry Christmas friend xo

December 5, 2013 at 12:04 pmYour home was a true joy to tour – love it!
Atta Girl Amy says
December 5, 2013 at 12:42 pmGorgeous, Robin. I’ve always wanted a flocked tree, but was afraid to commit, mostly out of fear that it would be messy. I’m looking forward to watching your video to see whether that’s true! Of course, after seeing how beautiful yours is, I could deal with a little mess. What’s a little vacuuming when a tree is as beautiful as that. So happy to be on this tour with you.
Jacob Phelps says
December 5, 2013 at 2:16 pmYour home is absolutely gorgeous! Happy holidays!
Robin says
December 6, 2013 at 5:49 pmThank you so much Jacob, you are so kind~
Becca says
December 5, 2013 at 2:52 pmI love the woodland theme on your mantel and dining area … so rich and inviting! Your flocked tree is incredible … especially love how it truly glows at night with the colored lights bouncing off of the “snow!” Happy Holidays!
[email protected] says
December 5, 2013 at 3:47 pmThat flocked tree is positively dreamy. And I would have never thought to add the multicolored lights but it is too cool. Next year, I think colored lights have to happen on at least one tree.
I’m also a huge fan of your wreaths on the windows. It’s simply stunning.
Robin says
December 6, 2013 at 5:48 pmKim thank you for your sweet words friend xo
Elaine Arent says
December 5, 2013 at 4:33 pmAbsolutely stunning. You have such an eve for decorating. What a gift. I have a close friend here that decorates so much in the same style as you. I always feel at home at her house. I’m sure that all of your friends feel the same about yours. Can you tell I’m envious. 🙂
Gina says
December 5, 2013 at 5:16 pmBeautiful Robin! Love all your little holly wreaths. 🙂

December 5, 2013 at 5:47 pmRobin, what a beautiful home you have and how wonderfully you have decorated it for Christmas! Just absolutely stunning! Those little holly wreaths make me swoon! Your home is so warm and inviting and MERRY AND BRIGHT!

December 5, 2013 at 6:55 pmI absolutely love it all!!! Every room has its own beauty and Christmas feel! I’m sure your grandbabies adore coming to grandma’s house! The simplicity of your kitchen makes so much sense and is simply beautiful! Happy Holidays, dear friend!~~Ang
Tami says
December 5, 2013 at 7:15 pmSo pretty! I love the flocked tree. Great idea! I also love your mantle. Good idea adding plaid. I’ve uploaded pictures of some of my decorations if you’d like to stop by. I have a lot more, but haven’t had a chance to blog them yet!

Pat says
December 8, 2013 at 7:29 amRobin,
Amazing Woodland Themed Christmas decor, dear one!!!
I adore the centerpiece on your dining room table!
The use of the runner grounds the accessories and makes a dramatic statement
against the white tablecloth!!!
Thank you for sharing your lovely Home Tour with us!
Fondly,
Pat

Jessica @ Decor Adventures says
December 9, 2013 at 3:38 pmHi Robin,
So glad I could come see your home, it’s lovely. I just love the little houses in the dining room. I have a few myself, but I’ve always wanted more. They are a perfect little wintery scene.
And your fireplace is just amazing! It looks so festive with the plaid, perfect touch.
Have a wonderful holiday season!
Robin says
December 10, 2013 at 1:15 pmJessica, thank you sweet friend for your kind and oh so encouraging words xo

Jana says
December 12, 2013 at 5:46 pmYour house is gorgeous!! I love the outdoor decor. I’ve recently fallen in love with the simplicity and the beauty of the wreaths on the windows. We highlighted our house in white bulbs this year and it’s just not enough. I may need to add wreaths to the windows.

November 4, 2014 at 5:59 pmWhat a beautiful home you have and it was decorated so elegantly! Will you use the same décor this year? I don’t want to give another tour that looks just like last year’s tour, but I definitely don’t want to buy new décor! Yours was lovely!
Robin says
November 5, 2014 at 9:49 amChristy , thank you so much friend! I’m not decorating the same this year…I bought a few things but the theme is different this year so I’m just switching up what I already have! xo Thanks so much for stopping by – xo
