Welcome to my Christmas home tour! Please make yourself at home.
I think we will start in the kitchen. Red berries and stars and red jingle bells in jars add a touch of Christmas to the top of the refrigerator.

And there is always a few yummy treats out!
Silver bulbs and a little red bird ornament.
In our seating area in the kitchen we have a coffee table... aka an old incubator. On top, a little sapling in a terra cotta pot... and a few bulbs and bells.
The buffet in the dining room has a simple green garland across the top with a few added pine cones and a silver nativity statue.
I love this photo of my mom by their Christmas tree when she was little! A few jingle bells added to a bowl of peppermint candies.
We have a wonderful nativity collection of Fontanini set up in our office. It is probably our favorite Christmas decoration. Showing the story of the real reason we are celebrating.
Just a little something in the hallway outside of the bathroom. An old Christmas album in a frame next to a tree.
Our TV cabinet is topped with a star, some holly branches, and a Bless All Who Gather Here sign.
Below is more holly branches... I love the green with red berries... a mistletoe plate and a candle vase.
This is the candle vase I put together. I put a candle in a vase and then put that inside a large glass vase. Then I added some pine cones and red jingle bells.
A simple wooden Christmas tree ornament adds a touch to the tray on top of the coffee table.
We don't have a theme Christmas tree. Each year our tree is full of a wonderful collection of ornaments. I have gotten Hallmark series ornaments from my grandparents since I was little. We still get one every year from my grandma and each year we can't wait to add it to the tree.
We also get an ornament that symbolizes something special from the year.
Every ornament on our tree has a story. Every ornament has a special meaning behind it. I love that about our tree!!
So... that is my Christmas home. I hope you have enjoyed the tour! May you and your family have a blessed Christmas! ♥

very beautiful. i love the mason jars of treats and ornaments.
so beautiful. I love your nativity and the Bing Crosby album. So festive.
I hope to one day have a large tree where each ornament has something special about our family. We have special ornaments but a small tree that won't hold that kind of weight. :)
Your decorations are beautiful.
Have a wonderful week.
Hope you can visit my blog.
